Appendix C. GPS16X-HVS Setups
As configured by Campbell Scientific, the GPS16X-HVS will output the
NMEA 0183 $GPGGA data string once a second, the PPS signal is enabled
with a duration of 100 milliseconds and the baud rate is set to 4800 baud.
Special software (SNRSRCFG.EXE) is available from Garmin International for
system setup. The GPS16X-HVS user manual available from Garmin
International provides technical details beyond the scope of the Campbell
Scientific user manual.
Settings used by Campbell Scientific for GPS16X-HVS setup:
GPS Base Model = GPS16X
Fix Mode = Automatic
Baud Rate = 4800
Dead Reckon Time = 30 sec
NMEA output time = 1 sec
Position pinning = off
NMEA 2.30 mode = off
Power Save Mode = off (Normal mode)
PPS mode = 1 Hz
PPS Length = 100 mS
Phaze output Data = off
DGPS Mode = WAAS only
Differential mode = Automatic
Earth Datum Index = WGS 84
Selected Sentences = GPGGA
Common changes would be baud rate and selected sentences. The CR1000,
CR3000, CR800, and CR850 dataloggers can support baud rates above 4800,
which can be beneficial in some applications. The NMEA 0183 GPVTG data
sentence gives ground speed and direction, which may be required for some
applications. Changes can be made with the Garmin software, or with a
terminal emulator and the Garmin technical user manual. Contact Garmin
International (www.garmin.com) for either resource.
NMEA Commands for System Setup
Received NMEA strings are commands to the GPS16X-HVS which change
some operating parameter. Null fields in the configuration sentence indicate no
change. All sentences are terminated with the carriage return and line feed
characters (CRLF). The CRLF can occur anywhere in the string. The *hh
indicates a checksum which is not required.
