This section provides some quick steps to enable ZED-F9P operation before exploring the more
complex configurations described later.
Figure 2: Basic C099-F9P overview with details needed for quick start
2.1
Starting up
•
Connect the supplied multi-band GNSS antenna to the ZED-RF SMA connector. Ensure good
signal reception.
•
Connect the USB to a Windows PC; this will power the board. The FTDI and USB drivers will be
installed automatically
from Windows Update when the user connects the board for the first
time. Note that the board has current limitation functionality on USB. Thus, ZED-F9P and ODIN-
W2 modules will power up after the drivers have been successfully installed and the USB
enumeration is completed.
•
Start u-center and connect to the COM port identified as
C099 application board, ZED-F9P
using
Device Manager. Set the baud rate to 460800 baud. See section 4.3.1 for detailed instructions.
•
The time pulse LED on the C099-F9P board will blink in blue once the ZED-F9P has obtained valid
time information. Figure 3 below shows a typical u-center view with active satellite signal levels.
To operate the ZED-F9P in RTK mode, the GNSS antenna must be placed in an open environment and
the unit must be connected to an RTK correction service. Where available, the evaluation kit comes
with a free trial of the SmartNet correction service. Consult the leaflet included with the kit for
information on how to register for the service and how to obtain mount point and user connection
details before moving to the next steps.
RTK corrections can be applied using a u-center built-in NTRIP client. To use the C099-F9P board with
a correction service follow these next steps:
•
In u-center, click on the
Receiver
menu item.
•
Select
NTRIP Client
…
•
Fill in the settings for the
NTRIP caster
,
username
and
password
.
•
Click
Update source table
and select the recommended NTRIP mount point.
•
Click
OK
to close the dialog and connect to the service.
•
In the
Data View
of u-center, the
Fix Mode
should change from
3D
to
3D/DGNSS
when RTCM
corrections are received. The RTK LED will blink in green.
