Introduction
The C099-F9P board is a convenient tool that allows customers to become familiar with the u-blox
ZED-F9P high precision GNSS module. The board provides facilities for evaluating the product and
demonstrating its key features. The C099-F9P application board offers:
•
A ZED-F9P module for use as an RTK rover or reference station
•
An ODIN-W2 short-range module with Arm®
Mbed
™
firmware
1
tailored for C099-F9P use to
provide untethered operation using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi which are configurable via a command
line interface (CLI)
2
•
Power supply options comprising a USB connection, Li-Po (lithium polymer) cell with recharging
ability, and 5-12 V DC input
3
•
Small, lightweight board (110 x 55 mm) with Arduino R3/Uno shield connections for host
expansion
This user guide describes the following use cases:
1.
Base and rover operation via serial connectivity
2.
Rover operation via Bluetooth Classic (with ODIN-W2 Mbed FW)
3.
Rover operation via Wi-Fi (with ODIN-W2 Mbed FW)
4.
Base and rover operation via Wi-Fi (with ODIN-W2 Mbed FW)
