The GPS receiver is interfaced to an on-board 16550 compatible DUART which receives the serial data sent by the GPS module. The data output as supplied by the factory is in TSIP format making it compatible with all offthe-shelf mapping, navigation, and geocaching application software. Supplied C source code assists the integrator in creating custom applications utilizing the PCM-GPS. The PCM-GPS also supports the Trimble receiver's high precision Pulse Per Second (PPS) output for use in critical time keeping or synchronizing applications. The PCM-GPS also supports the CDMA and GPRS/ GSM cellular SocketModems® from Multi-Tech Systems®. These modems, when combined with the GPS positioning data, can provide a "phone home" function to report its current location. 091110 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCM-GPS 1 https://manual-hub.com/ Functional Capability I/O Address Selection The PCM-GPS requires eight consecutive I/O addresses beginning on an 8-byte boundary for each of the two on-board serial channels. The jumper blocks at J4 and J7 allow selection of the primary (GPS) and secondary serial (SocketModem®) port I/O addresses respectively. Address selection is made by placing a jumper on the jumper pair for the address bit, if a 0 is desired or leaving the jumper pair open if a 1 is required for the desired address. The illustration below shows the relationship between the address bits and the jumper position and a sample jumpering for an address of 300H. J4/J7 I/O Base Address Select jumper J4/J7 shown jumpered for 300H 1 o o 2 A3 3 o o 4 A4 5 o o 6 A5 7 o o 8 A6 9 o o 10 A7 11 o o 12 A8 13 o o 14 A9 To disable a port, place a jumper on all 7 positions 9Address = 000H. Interrupt Routing The PCM-GPS can source up to three unique on-board interrupts. Two are available for each of the serial interfaces and a third for the Pulse Per Second (PPS) interrupt from the GPS. The jumper blocks at J8, J9, and J10 allow for routing of the interrupts for the SocketModem®, the GPS serial output, and the PPS source respectively. To route an interrupt to a source, place a jumper at the desired IRQ position. Unused sources should be left unjumpered. Each source must have its own unique interrupt.

WinSystems' on-board implementation degrades this accuracy by buffering the PPS output using a 74HCT14 Schmitt trigger device which also inverts the signal. Since PC interrupts are edge-triggered on the rising edge, the actual interrupt will occur 4 µs plus the inverter propagation time later (typical 17 ns). This added delay is actually insignificant to any software synchronizing routines as the entire hardware interrupt acknowledgment process will consume many additional microseconds in a bestcase scenario. The PPS signal begins immediately at power-up and continues even if the receiver loses GPS lock. The drift of the signal without GPS lock is unspecified. External PPS Usage The PPS signal, in addition to being available on-board for interrupt generation, is also terminated at two polarities on the J2 connector. The negative pulsed output at pin 2 of J2 is driven by a 74HCT14 inverter with a typical propagation delay of 17 ns. The positive signal is available on pin 3 of J2 and is double-buffered by the same type device for a typical delay of 34 ns. Either of these signals can be used by external hardware for time synchronization purposes. 1 o EXTERNAL BAT+ J2 2 o PPS OUT (Neg) 3 o PPS OUT (Pos) 4 o GND Visual Index GPS Almanac Battery The PCM-GPS is shipped with a 350 mAH 3.5V Lithium battery. This battery is used to retain GPS Almanac and Ephemeris data which provides for a greatly improved time to position fix from power-up. With the battery available, and valid Almanac data, the time for a valid fix is reduced from under 2 minutes to under 20 seconds. The Trimble® published current draw on the battery backup line is 19 µA typical at 25ºC. Alternately, an external battery may be connected between Pin 1 (+) and Pin 4 (-) of J2. An externally connected battery should be rated at 3.5V ±.2V. The jumper block at J5 is used to select the GPS backup battery source as shown below. The jumper may be removed or moved to the external position for long-term storage of boards for battery preservation. J5 1 2 3 o o o On-board battery selection J5 1 2 3 o o o Off-board connector selection External Battery J2 (pin 1) Visual Index GPS Antenna The PCM-GPS requires an external outdoor antenna with a clear view of the sky in order to receive and track satellites in the GPS constellation. J1 is a standard SMA connector for attachment of the antenna. It must be an active antenna powered by the 3.3V supplied by the GPS and with a typical gain of 28 dB. WinSystems offers an optional magnetic mount antenna P/N ANTENNA-MAGNETIC built by Trimble® for this module. Other antennas meeting the above specifications should work as well.

The Trimble Lassen® IQ GPS module is also capable of transmitting and receiving serial data in a Trimble proprietary format known as TSIP. This is a binary protocol which ordinarily runs at 9600 baud, an 8-bit word, and odd parity. PCM-GPS boards as shipped, default to this TSIP standard. The Trimble Lassen® IQ GPS module is also capable of transmitting and receiving serial data in NMEA 0183 format. This is a simple ASCII, serial communications protocol that defines how data is transmitted. Users requiring a NMEA interface to the GPS should see the Software Drivers & Examples section of this manual or contact WinSystems Technical Support for details on converting the PCM-GPS to NMEA. TSIP Software Interface Software Interface 3 The serial port driver in the iQ_CHAT Tool Kit matches the Lassen iQ GPS receiver serial port characteristics. The TSIPPRNT program converts binary data logged with the iQ_CHAT program into text that may be printed and displayed. Both of these tools are included in the Software Developer's Toolkit. Warning When using the TSIP protocol to change port assignments or settings, confirm that your changes do not affect the ability to communicate with the receiver (e.g., selecting the PC COM port settings that do not match the receiver's, or changing the output protocol to TSIP while not using iQ_CHAT). 091110 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCML-GasPsSen iQ GPS Receiver 41 6 https://manual-hub.com/ Software Interface 3 3.2 Communicating with the Lassen iQ GPS Receiver The Lassen iQ GPS Receiver supports three message protocols: TSIP, TAIP, and NMEA. Communication with the module is through two CMOS compatible, TTL level serial ports. The port characteristics can be modified to accommodate your application requirements. Port parameters can be stored in non-volatile memory (FLASH) which does not require backup power. Table 3.1. lists the default port characteristics. 3.2.1 Software Tools The Software Tools provided on the Starter Kit CD-ROM include both user friendly Windows and DOS applications to facilitate communication with the receiver, via the Trimble Standard Interface Protocol (TSIP). This CD also includes sample C source code and reusable routines to aid in developing applications. Note The TSIP, TAIP, and NMEA protocols are discussed beginning on page 42 of this chapter, and in the Appendices of this document.

Software Interface 3 3.3.2 TSIP Data Output Modes TSIP is the default protocol for Port 1 on the Lassen iQ GPS receiver. This binary language offers users a wide variety of commands and reports. TSIP enables the Lassen iQ GPS receiver to operate in two data output modes, both available during operation. In Query Mode, packet data is returned in response to input query packets. In Automatic Mode, a selected group of data packets is output continuously at two fixed rates every second and every five seconds. The format and ensemble of the automatic output packets is configured using packets 0x35, 0x70, and 0x8E-20 (see Appendix A for packet details). Packet settings are stored in BBRAM. They can also be saved in non-volatile memory (Flash) using command packet 0x8E-26. See Appendix A for additional information on Flash storage for custom operation. 3.3.3 Default TSIP Output Settings Default 0x35 setting (byte 0=2, 1= 2, 2=0, 3=0): · Position and velocity data precision: single precision floating point · Position output option and format (byte 0 setting): Latitude radian Longitude radian Altitude meters (WGS-84) · No super-packet output · Velocity output option and format: East Velocity meters/sec.; + fLoarsEseanstiQ GPS Receiver 41 North Velocity meters/sec.; + for North Up Velocity meters/sec.; + for Up · Timing GPS Time Output PPS Always ON · Auxiliary/Pseudo Range Measurement Raw Measurements OFF Raw Pseudo Ranges OFF Output AMU values 091110 Lassen iQ GPS Receiver 4 3 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCM-GPS 8 https://manual-hub.com/ 3 Software Interface Default 0x70 setting (byte 0=1, 1=1. 2=1. 3=0): · Position-Velocity Dynamic Filter enabled · Position-Velocity static Filter enabled · Altitude Filter enabled Default 0x8E-20 setting (byte 1 = 1): · 0x8F-20 output is included in the super-packet for automatic output IF packet 0x35 selects the super-packet for automatic output options 3.3.4 Automatic TSIP Output Packets (fixed rate) One second interval: · 0x4A (1) GPS position fix; (2) clock bias and time of fix; {20 byte format} · 0x56 velocity fix · 0x6D (1) list of satellites used for position fixes; (2) PDOP, HDOP, VDOP; (3) fix mode · 0x82 DGPS position fix mode Five second interval: · 0x41 (1) GPS time of the week (seconds); (2) extended GPS week number; (3) GPS UTC offset (seconds) · 0x46 health of receiver · 0x4B (1) Machine/Code ID; (2) Real-time-clock availability status; (3) almanac validity status; (4) having super-packet support status 44 Lassen iQ GPS Receiver 091110 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCM-GPS 9 https://manual-hub.com/ 3 Software Interface Default 0x70 setting (byte 0=1, 1=1. 2=1. 3=0): · Position-Velocity Dynamic Filter enabled · Position-Velocity static Filter enabled · Altitude Filter enabled Default 0x8E-20 setting (byte 1 = 1): · 0x8F-20 output is included in the super-packet for automatic output IF packet 0x35 selects the super-packet for automatic output options 3.3.4 Automatic TSIP Output Packets (fixed rate) One second interval: · 0x4A (1) GPS position fix; (2) clock bias and time of fix; {20 byte format} · 0x56 velocity fix · 0x6D (1) list of satellites used for position fixes; (2) PDOP, HDOP, VDOP; (3) fix mode · 0x82 DGPS position fix mode Five second interval: · 0x41 (1) GPS time of the week (seconds); (2) extended GPS week number; (3) GPS UTC offset (seconds) · 0x46 health of receiver · 0x4B (1) Machine/Code ID; (2) Real-time-clock availability status; (3) almanac validity status; (4) having super-packet support status Software Interface 3 3.3.5 Packet Output Order After power up or a software reset (packet 0x1E), seven start-up 44 Lassen iQ GpPacSkReetsceairveersent, only once, by the receiver in this order: 45, 46, 4B, 4A, 56, 41, 82 Before position fixes are available, the 1 second and 5 second interval packets are sent in this order, periodically: · Every one second for 5 seconds: 6D, 82 · Every five seconds 41, 46, 4B When position fixes are available, the 1 second and 5 second interval packets are sent in this order, periodically: · Every one second for 4 seconds: 4A, 56, 6D, 82 · Every 5 seconds: 4A, 56, 41, 46, 4B, 6D, 82 091110 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCM-GPS 10 https://manual-hub.com/ Software Drivers & Examples Documentation Trimble® Manual Reprint GSM Programming Quick Start Guide Examples PCM-GPS Example Program with source GPS Configuration Utility Monitoring Software including TSIPCHAT and TSIPPRNT NMEA Software Standard Examples (Source Code Sample) TSIP LassenManual.pdf gsm_quickstart.pdf nmea3.zip IQ_CHAT.EXE iQ_Monitor_V1-52.exe nmea.pdf iQSource.zip 091110 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCM-GPS 11 https://manual-hub.com/ Jumper Reference Drawings ONLY - for more detailed information on these parts, refer to the descriptions shown previously in this manual.
