MTi-600 series DK User Manual 

 

General information

 

This document provides information on the contents and usage of the MTi 600-series Development Kit. 
The MTi 600-series module (MTi-600) is a fully functional, self-contained module that is easy to design-
in. The MTi-600 can be connected to a host through a CAN, RS232 or UART interface. The MTi 600-
series Development Kit (MTi-600-DEV) enables users to evaluate features of the MTi-600. In addition 
to the MTi-600 interfaces, this Development Kit includes a USB and RS422 interface. 
 
The 

MTi 600-series Datasheet

1

 

provides information on the usage and technical details of the MTi 600-

series modules. The MTi 600-series module (MTi-600) is a fully functional, self-contained module that 
is easy to design-in. The MTi-600 module can be connected to a host through RS232, CAN or UART 
interfaces,  or  through  USB  using  the  UART  to  USB  converter  (included  in  the  MTi  600-series 
Development Kit). 
 
The 

MTi Family Reference Manual

1

 

supplements this document. It reports generic information on the 

MTi 1-series and MTi 600-series, such as output definitions, algorithm details and installation tips. 
 
The 

MTi 600-series Hardware Integration Manual

1

 supplements this document. In this document, notes 

on typical application scenarios, printed circuit board (PCB) layout, origin of measurement reference 
system, stress related considerations, reference designs and handling information can be found.  
 
The 

MT Low Level Communication Protocol

1

 

document provides a complete reference for the protocols 

used to communicate with Xsens Motion Trackers on low-level basis. The MT Low Level Communication 
Protocol document also describes the synchronization messages and settings in detail.
