1. GPS technology can be used in variety of fields besides providing navigation for vehicles on the sea in the air and on the ground GPS applications also include keeping track of where a fleet of trucks trains ships or planes are and how fast they are moving direction emergency vehicles to the scene of an accident mapping where a city s assets are located and providing precise timing for endeavors that require large scale coordination UT 41R USB User s Manual Version 1 0 Sep 2006 1 How to install For Notebook UT 41R USB Mini USB connector 1 Plug Mini USB connector 1 into Notebook USB port see Fig 1 1 Fig1 1 Install USB driver users can find the USB driver on the attached CD file name GPS USB driver the USB driver can be installed for Microsoft Windows XP and Mac system User can easily install USB driver the USB driver can automatically install the driver when user execute it Turn on Notebook please identify which COM port has been used occupied by UT 41R USB The ways how to check COM port has been used by UT 41R USB are as following Double clicks Control panel C gt Double clicks System Click hardware gt Click Hardware Manager gt Double clicks COM Port then user can find which COM port has been occupied by UT 41R USB Execute the eMap Electrical street map software select the COM port which has been occupied by UT 41R USB How to check C2. 0 Baud Elevation Mask 5 degrees DOP Mask DOP Select Auto GDOP 20 PDOP 15 HDOP 8 Receiver Operating Mode Normal Mode without 1PPS Commands can be issued to the UT 41R USB to change the settings of the receiver The new settings will remain effective on next power on as long as the on board rechargeable backup battery is not discharged After the backup battery is discharged factory preset default settings will be used UT 41R USB User s Manual Version 1 0 Sep 2006 6
3. B GPS receiver offers following features e Twelve parallel tracking channels e Fast TTFF and low power consumption e Compact design suitable le for applications requiring small space e On board rechargeable battery sustained real time clock and memory for fast satellite acquisition during power up e High accuracy one pulse per second output e Supports NMEA 0183 protocol e Full navigation accuracy achievable with Standard Positioning Service e Optimized for navigation in urban canyon environments e Automatic cold start with no user initialization required Satellite acquisition and tracking process Under normal open sky condition position fix can be achieved within approximately 45 seconds within 15 seconds if valid ephemeris data is already collected from recent use After receiver position has been calculated valid position velocity and time information are transmitted through the on board serial interface The receiver uses the latest stored position satellite data and current RTC time to achieve rapid GPS signal acquisition and fast TTFF If the receiver is transported over a large distance across the globe cold start automatic locate sequence is invoked The first position fix may take up to five minutes searching the sky for the GPS signal The acquisition performance can be improved significantly if the host initializes the receiver with a rough estimate of time and user position As soon as GPS signal is acquired and tracked the
4. OM port user must read the eMap instruction which user is using eMap will search GPS satellites automatically users current position will be showed in the eMap after 3 satellites has been searched it needs to take 45 50 seconds when use UT 41R USB in the first time See Fig 1 2 UT 41R USB User s Manual Version 1 0 Sep 2006 2 Fig 1 2 vi How to identify UT 41R USB working status please read the following description LED Indicator LED INDICATOR LED flashing 4 sec on 4 sec off Signal Searching LED on 1 sec on 1 sec off 3D Position Fixed UT 41R USB User s Manual Version 1 0 Sep 2006 3 SECTION 1 Introduction 1 1 Overview The UT 41R USB GPS Receiver is intended for use in a wide range of applications The receiver simultaneously tracks up to twelve satellites provides accurate satellite positioning data with fast time to first fix TTFF and low power consumption It is designed for high performance and maximum flexibility in a wide range of applications including mobile asset tracking in vehicle automotive guidance location sensing telematics and so on The highly integrated receiver achieves high performance minimizes board size and power consumption requirements The UT 41R USB is designed to withstand harsh operating environments however it should be used inside an enclosure as a part of the application product designed by the system integrator 1 2 FEATURES The UT 41R US
5. UT 41R USB USB Interface Water Proof GPS Receiver User Manual General description of what GPS is and how it works GPS Global Positioning System is the only system today able to show you your exact position on the Earth anytime in any weather anywhere GPS satellites 24 in all orbit at 11 000 nautical miles above the Earth They are continuously monitored by ground stations located worldwide The satellites transmit signals that can be detected by anyone with a GPS receiver Using the receiver you can determine your location with great precision The satellites are positioned so that we can receive signals from six of them nearly 100 percent of the time at any point on Earth You need that many signals to get the best position information Satellites are equipped with very precise clocks that keep accurate time to within three nanoseconds that s 0 000000003 or three billionths of a second This precision timing is important because the receiver must determine exactly how long it takes for signals to travel from each GPS satellite The receiver uses this information to calculate its position Although GPS was designed for military use many thousands of civil jams make use of it The satellites actually broadcast two signals one is only for military use and one can be used by both military and civilians Since GPS is passive you only need to receive the signal there are no restrictions on who can use the signal available to civilians
6. UT 41R USB will transmit valid navigation information through its serial interface The navigation data contains following information e Receiver position in latitude longitude and altitude e Receiver velocity e Time e DOP error magnification factor e GPS signal tracking status The UT 41R USB will perform 3D navigation when four or more satellites are tracked When three or fewer satellites are tracked altitude hold is enabled using the last computed altitude and 2D navigation mode is entered UT 41R USB User s Manual Version 1 0 Sep 2006 4 With signal blockage or rising and setting of the satellites where a change in satellite constellation used for position fix occurred large position error may result The UT 41R USB incorporates a proprietary algorithm to compensate the effect of satellite constellation change and maintains an accurate smooth estimate of the receiver position velocity and heading 2 1 Receiver Specification FEATURES DESCRIPTIONS General L1 frequency C A code 12 Parallel Channels Sensitivity 140dBm acquisition 150 dBm tracking Update Rate 1Hz Accuracy Position 5m CEP Velocity 0 1m sec Cold start lt 50sec typical Acquisition Warm start lt 25sec typical Hot start lt 10sec Reacquisition lt 1 sec Altitude lt 18 000m Dynamics Velocity 515m sec Acceleration 4g Operation Temperature 40 C t
