ZED-F9H - Integration manual
•
Inside
- The position is inside the geofence with the configured confidence level
•
Outside
- The position lies outside of the geofence with the configured confidence level
•
Unknown
- There is no valid position solution or the position uncertainty does not allow for
unambiguous state evaluation
The position solution uncertainty (standard deviation) is multiplied with the configured confidence
sigma level number and taken into account when evaluating the geofence state (red circle in figure
below).
Figure 10: Geofence states
The combined state for all geofences is evaluated as the combination (Union) of all geofences:
•
Inside
- The position lies inside of at least one geofence
•
Outside
- The position lies outside of all geofences
•
Unknown
- All remaining states
A pin is made available to indicate the status of the geofence. See the
.
3.4.4 Using a PIO for geofence state output
This feature can be used for example for waking up a sleeping host when a defined geofence
condition is reached. The receiver will toggle the assigned pin according to the
combined
geofence
state. Due to hardware restrictions, the geofence unknown state is not configurable and is always
represented as HIGH. If the receiver is in the software backup mode or in the reset state, the pin
will go to HIGH accordingly. The meaning of the LOW state can be configured using the CFG-
GEOFENCE-PINPOL configuration item.
The CFG-GEOFENCE-PIN configuration item refers to a PIO and not a physical device pin.
The PIO number must be set so that it is mapped to the assigned geofence state device pin.
The ZED-F9H is assigned PIO3 that is assigned to module pin 19.
3.5 Logging
3.5.1 Introduction
The logging feature allows position fixes and arbitrary byte strings from the host to be logged in the
receiver's flash memory. Logging of position fixes happens independently of the host system, and
can continue while the host is powered down.
The following table lists all the logging-related messages:
Message
Description
UBX-LOG-CREATE
Creates a log file and activates the logging system
UBX-LOG-ERASE
Erases a log file and deactivates the logging subsystem
UBX-LOG-INFO
Provides information about the logging system
UBX-LOG-STRING
Enables a host process to write a string of bytes to the log file
