GNSS Tab
The GNSS tab shows the status
of the GNSS receiver built into
the transceiver. This provides an
indication of the quality of the GNSS
satellite signals being received along
with the current position of the
transceiver. At least four satellites
with a carrier to noise ratio in excess
of 40 dBHz are required for an
acceptable position fix. Relocating the
transceiver or connecting an external
GNSS antenna can help improve the
signal quality and resulting position
accuracy.
The internal GNSS receiver supports
SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation
Service) to enable improved accuracy
and integrity of GNSS position fixes.
The availability of SBAS depends
on the installation location of the
transceiver (the WAAS SBAS service
covers most of the US and the
EGNOS service covers Europe).
Serial Data Tab
The serial data page shows all
data output from the transceiver in
NMEA0183 / IEC61162-1 format. It is
also possible to send NMEA0183 /
IEC61162-1 commands to transceiver
if required for technical support or
custom configuration. A facility to
record the data to a file is provided by
clicking the ‘Log to File’ button.
Certain sentence types can be
filtered out of the output window by
checking the relevant sentence type
in the ‘Filters’ section of this tab.
