QZSS, and BeiDou satellites using Hemisphere GNSS’ Crescent Vector H220™
GNSS module. This User Guide is available for download from www.HGNSS.com
.
Note:
When referring to both the Vector V123 and V133™ GNSS Compass, this manual uses the term V123_V133. When referring to either product this manual uses either V123 or V133, respectively.
The V123_V133 is designed for marine and land applications that require precise heading and sub-meter position performance. Featuring a Crescent
Vector GNSS receiver and two separate antennas, V123_V133 achieves heading accuracy of 0.30º RMS.
The V123_V133 tracks single frequency GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, and
BeiDou. The V123_V133 can be upgraded via activations to support Atlas Lband.
The V123_V133 is a complete multi-GNSS compass system for heading and positioning in a single enclosure that requires only one power/data cable connection. With its CAN support and ease of installation, the V123_V133 is the perfect solution for professional, commercial marine, Radar/ARPA, AIS,

Not a valid bookmark selfreference.
There are no mechanical parts such as gimbals or a rotating motor, thus the
V123 and V133 Compass is free from routine maintenance. Heading is determined from GNSS, and there is no need to wait for settling time, gyrocompass calibration and speed corrections. Vector performance is not affected by geomagnetism, making it the perfect solution for any marine application.
The V123_V133 is an integrated system that houses the following:
• Crescent and Crescent Vector H220 module
•
Dual GNSS multipath-resistant antennas
• DGPS beacon module and H-field beacon antenna (V133 only)
• Power supply
• Six-axis sensor
The sensor is present to improve system performance and to provide backup heading information in the event a GNSS heading is not available due to signal blockage. The sensor provides a substitute heading, accurate to within
1º per minute for up to three minutes.
The V133 has an internal Beacon antenna capable of receiving these signals, demodulating them, and applying the differential correction to the GNSS position
Note:
Used as a heading device, the V123 GNSS Compass is identical to the
V133 GNSS Compass. Used as a positioning device, only the V133 GNSS
Compass contains a DGPS beacon module and antenna. If you purchased the
V123 GNSS Compass, disregard the sections of this manual that discuss the beacon signal, receiver operation, and implications to installation relating to the beacon signal.
The Crescent Vector H220 module supports multiple RF front ends - enabling tighter coupling of measurements from separate antennas for use in heading-based products.

The V123_V133’s GPS antennas are separated by 50.0 cm between phase centers, resulting in a heading performance better than 0.30° RMS. The
V123_V133 can provide heading and positioning updates of up to 50 Hz and delivers positioning accuracy of 0.6 m 95% of the time when using differential GPS corrections from Satellite Based Augmentation Systems
(SBAS) or from beacon (V133 only).
The V123_V133 also features Hemisphere GNSS’ exclusive Tracer™ technology, which enables Hemisphere GNSS receivers to use old differential
GPS correction data for 40 minutes or more without significantly affecting the positioning quality. The V123_V133 is less likely to be affected by differential signal outages due to signal blockages, weak signals, or interference when using Tracer.
If you are new to GNSS and SBAS, refer to the Hemisphere GNSS Technical
Reference Manual (for further information on these services and technologies before proceeding.

Mounting
the V123_V133
Introduction
This section provides information on mounting the V123_V133 in the optimal location, orientation considerations, environmental considerations, and other mounting options.
GNSS satellite reception
When considering where to mount the V123_V133, consider the following satellite reception recommendations:
•
Ensure there is a clear view of the sky available to the V123_V133 so the
GNSS and L-band satellites are not masked by obstructions that may reduce system performance
•
Mount the V123_V133 in a position in respect to the primary GNSS antenna (located on the end opposite the recessed arrow on the underside of the enclosure)
• Locate any transmitting antennas away from the V123_V133 by at least a few meters to ensure tracking performance is not compromised
• Ensure cable length is adequate to route into the vessel to reach a breakout box or terminal strip
• Do not locate the antenna where environmental conditions exceed those
specified in Appendix B, Technical Specifications of this document.

Beacon reception
When using the V133’s internal beacon receiver as the correction source, consider the possible mounting locations from the perspective of ambient noise within the beacon band.
Keep the following in mind when deciding upon a location with respect to maximizing beacon performance:
•
Ensure that the antenna is as far as possible from all other equipment that emits electromagnetic interference (EMI), including DC motors, alternators, solenoids, radios, power cables, display units, and other electronic devices.
•
If you are installing the antenna on a vessel, mount the Vector compass as high as possible, considering maintenance and accessibility. In addition, ensure that the antenna is higher than the highest metal object on the vessel.
• If a radar system is present, mount the antenna outside the path of the radar beam.
The V133’s internal beacon receiver calculates a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), measured in decibels (dB), that indicates the receiver’s performance. The
SNR is the height of the signal above the noise floor: the higher the SNR, the better your beacon receiver demodulates the signal.
The optimum antenna location is a position where your average SNR is highest. You should turn on all accessories you intend to use during normal operation when locating the best position for the antenna. By monitoring the
SNR, you can determine the optimum location with respect to beacon reception. The SNR is available in the $CRMSS NMEA message described in the Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual .

VHF interference
VHF interference from such devices as cellular phones and radio transmitters may interfere with GPS operation, however the Vector compass can still track other constellations, maintaining heading and position.
For example, if installing the V123_V133 near marine radios, consider the following:
•
VHF marine radio working frequencies (Channels 1 to 28 and 84 to 88) range from 156.05 to 157.40 MHz. The L1 GPS working center frequency is
1575.42 MHz. The bandwidth is +/- 2MHz to +/- 10 MHz, which is dependent on the GNSS antenna and receiver design.
• VHF marine radios emit strong harmonics. The 10th harmonic of VHF radio, in some channels, falls into the GPS working frequency band, which may cause the SNR of GNSS to degrade significantly.
• The radiated harmonic signal strength of different brands/models varies.
• Follow VHF radio manufacturers’ recommendations on how to mount their radios and what devices to keep a safe distance away.
• Handheld 5W VHF radios may not provide suitable filtering and may interfere with the V123_V133’s operation if too close.
Before installing the Vector Compass, use the following diagram to ensure there are no nearby devices that may cause VHF interference.

Environmental considerations
Mounting orientation
Hemisphere Vector Smart Antennas are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions; however, adhere to the following limits when storing and using the V123_V133:
•
Operating temperature: -30°C to +70°C (-22°F to +158°F)
•
Storage temperature: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F)
•
Humidity: 95% non-condensing
The V123_V133 outputs heading, pitch, and roll readings regardless of the orientation of the antennas. The relation of the antennas to the vessel’s axis determines if you need to enter a heading, pitch, or roll bias.
The primary antenna is used for positioning and the primary and secondary antennas, working in conjunction, output heading, pitch, and roll values.
Note:
Regardless of which mounting orientation you use, the V123_V133 provides the ability to output the heave of the vessel. This output is available via the $GPHEV message. For more information on this message refer to the
Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual .
Parallel orientation
Parallel installation orients the V123_V133 parallel to, and along the centerline of, the axis of the vessel.
This provides a true heading
. In this orientation:
• If you use a gyrocompass and there is a need to align the Vector smart antenna, you can enter a heading bias in the V123_V133 to calibrate the physical heading to the true heading of the vessel.
• You may need to adjust the pitch/roll output to calibrate the measurement if the Vector is not installed in a horizontal plane.

Perpendicular orientation
You can also install the antennae, so they are oriented perpendicular to the centerline of the vessel’s axis. In this orientation:
•
Enter a heading bias of +90° if the primary antenna is on the starboard side of the vessel and -90° if the primary antenna is on the port side of the vessel.
• Configure the receiver to specify the GNSS smart antenna is measuring the roll axis using $JATT,ROLL,YES.
• Enter a roll bias to properly output the pitch and roll values.
• You may need to adjust the pitch/roll output to calibrate the measurement if the Vector is not installed in a horizontal plane.

If you have another accurate source of heading data on your vessel, such as a gyrocompass, you may use its data to correct for a bias in V123_V133 alignment within the V123_V133 software configuration.
Alternatively, you can physically adjust the heading of the V123_V133 so that it renders the correct heading measurement or add a software offset.
The V123_V133 allows for three different mounting options: flush-mount, pole-mount, and bracket-mount:
1.
Flush-mount -
The bottom of the V123_V133 contains eight M8-1.25 holes for flush mounting the unit to a flat surface (see Figure 2-7). The eight holes comprise two sets of four holes. Flush mounting does not provide any additional dampening to the receiver. The V123_V133 can be mounted using an optional mounting bracket. See Table 1-1 for bracket part information.
2.
Pole-mount -
The V123_V133 can be mounted using a mounting pole.
The set screws on the long sides of the base (see middle drawing in
Figure 2-7) allow you to secure the V123_V133 in place (3/16" Allen wrench not included).
Hand tighten until snug (do not overtighten).
3.
Bracket-mount -
You can purchase on optional mounting bracket. See
Table 1-1 for bracket part information.
Note:
Hemisphere GNSS does not supply mounting surface hardware or a mounting pole. You must supply the appropriate mounting hardware required to complete V123_V133 installation.

Flush-mounting the V123_V133
This section describes how to flush-mount or pole-mount the V123_V133.
Be mindful of the following when planning your installation:
•
Hemisphere GNSS does not supply mounting surface hardware or a mounting pole. You must supply the appropriate hardware or mounting pole required to complete V123_V133 installation.
• You can enter a software offset to accommodate for a heading measurement bias due to installation.
The bottom of the V123_V133 contains eight holes (two sets of four holes) for flush-mounting the unit to a flat surface (Figure 2-10).
The flat surface may be fabricated per your installation, an off-the-shelf item
(such as a radar mounting plate), or an existing surface on your vessel.

Ports
Overview
Serial ports
The V123_V133 offers either serial port or NMEA 2000 functionality.
The V123_V133 has three serial ports:
1.
Port A can be both full-duplex RS-232 and half-duplex RS-422 (transmit only)
2.
Port B is full-duplex RS-422
3.
Port C is for NMEA 2000 and only available via serial-to-NMEA adapter
You can receive external differential corrections via either Port A (full-duplex
RS-232) or Port B (full-duplex RS-422).
You can connect up to three devices at one time using two ports.
One device can receive data via Port A (RS-422 transmit only) while two devices can transmit and receive data via Ports A and B (one connected to
Port A RS- 232 and one connected to Port B).
Note:
Port A (RS-422) or Port B is required for communicating to an IMOcertified device.
You can update firmware via Port A (RS-232) or Port B.
Note:
The V123_V133 has maximum baud rate of 115200.

Serial port configuration
You may configure Port A or Port B of the GNSS receiver to output any combination of data.
Port A can have a different configuration from Port B in data message output, data rates, and the baud rate of the port, and configure the ports independently based upon your needs. Both RS-232 and RS-422 output signals may be used simultaneously.
The RS-232 Port A and RS-422 Port A output the same data messages at the same baud rate. If the baud rate or messages for the RS-422 port need to be changed, this needs to be commanded through the RS-232 port.
Note:
For successful communications, use the 8-N-1 protocol and set the baud rate of the V123_V133’s serial ports to match that of the devices to which they are connected. Flow control is not supported.

Selecting Baud Rates and Message Types
Baud rates &
Message types
When selecting your baud rate and message types, use the following formula to calculate the bits/sec for each message and sum the results to determine the baud rate for your required data throughput.
Message output rate * Message length (bytes) * bits in byte = Bits/second
(1 character = 1 byte, 8 bits = 1 byte, use 10 bits/byte to account for overhead).
For information on message output rates refer to the Hemisphere GNSS
Technical Reference Manual .
NMEA 2000 port
To use the V123_V133 for NMEA 2000, connect the included serial-to-NMEA
2000 adapter (P/N 710-0113-000#, see Figure 2-12) to the unit. Insert the 18pin connector of the adapter into the male end of the 18-pin connector on the V123_V133 by aligning the keys.
Attach the adapter to the unit using the supplied screws (machine, 8-32, ½”,
PPHC, SS) and washer (flat, #8, SS). The 5-pin male Micro-C connector connects to your NMEA 2000 drop cable.
Note:
The serial-to-NMEA 2000 adapter is not an IMO requirement and may not be used in such an application.

Recommendations for connecting to other devices
When interfacing with other devices, ensure the transmit data output and the signal grounds from the V123_V133 is connected to the data input of the other device. The signal grounds must also be connected.
The RS-422 is a balanced signal with positive and negative signals referenced to ground, ensure you maintain the correct polarity.
When connecting the transmit data output positive signal to the receive line of the other device, it should be connected to the receive positive terminal.
The negative transmit data signal from the V123_V133 is connected to the receive data negative input of the other device.
For a list of Hemisphere GNSS commands, please refer to the Hemisphere
GNSS Technical Reference Manual .
Power/data cable considerations
The V123_V133 uses a single 15 m (49 ft) or 30 m (98 ft) cable for power and data input/output.

The receiver end of the cable is terminated with an environmentally-sealed
18-pin connection while the opposite end is unterminated and requires field stripping and tinning.
Note:
This section refers to a serial connection. For connecting external
NMEA 2000 devices, plug the serial-to-NMEA 2000 adapter into the
V123_V133 and then attach a standard NMEA 2000 dropline cable to the adapter.
Power/data cable pin-out assignments
Depending on the application and installation needs, the cable may need to be shortened. However, if you require a longer cable run than 30 m, you can bring the cable into a break-out box that incorporates terminal strips, within the vessel.
When lengthening the cable keep the following in mind:
• To lengthen the serial lines inside the vessel, use 20-gauge twisted pairs and minimize the additional wire length.
• When lengthening the power input leads to the V123_V133, ensure the additional voltage drop is small enough to power the system above the minimum voltage of the system. Wire of 18-gauge or larger should also be used.
• Minimize RS-232 cable length to ensure reliable communication.

Overview
Chapter 3: Understanding the
V123_V133
Introduction
The GNSS receiver begins tracking satellites when it powers up and is placed outside in an open area. Position and heading accuracy vary depending upon location and environment. Position performance can be improved with RTK or DGNSS.
The following sections provide the steps to configure your V123_V133 to use
Atlas, Beacon, SBAS, or RTK.
Note:
Differential source and RTK status impact only positioning and heave.
There is no impact to heading, pitch, or roll.

Differential Operation
Differential
(DGNSS) operation
The V123_V133 delivers positioning accuracies of 2.5 m 95% and provides positioning quality to better than 0.6 m 95% using differential corrections received through the internal SBAS demodulator, beacon receiver, Atlas Lband, or through externally-supplied RTCM corrections.
SBAS Tracking
SBAS tracking
The V123_V133 features two-channel tracking that provides an enhanced ability to maintain a lock on an SBAS satellite when more than one satellite is in view. This redundant tracking approach results in more consistent tracking of an SBAS signal in areas where signal blockage of a satellite is possible.

GNSS Overview
GNSS operation
The GNSS receiver is always operating, regardless of the DGNSS mode of operation. The following sections describe the general operation of the
V123_V133’s internal GNSS receiver.
Note:
Differential source and status have no impact on heading, pitch, or roll.
They only have an impact on positioning and heave.
The V123_V133 provides accurate and reliable heading and position information at high update rates. To accomplish this task, the V123_V133 uses a high performance GNSS receiver and two antennas for GNSS signal processing.
One antenna is designated as the primary GNSS antenna and the other is the secondary GNSS antenna. Positions computed by the V123_V133 are referenced to the phase center of the primary GNSS antenna. Heading data references the Vector formed from the primary GNSS antenna phase center to the secondary GNSS antenna phase center.
The heading arrow located on the bottom of the V123_V133 enclosure defines system orientation. The arrow points in the direction the heading measurement is computed (when the antenna is installed parallel to the fore-aft line of the vessel). The secondary antenna is directly above the arrow.

Atlas L-band
Atlas L-band
Atlas L-band corrections are available worldwide. With Atlas, the positioning accuracy does not degrade as a function of distance to a base station, as the data content is not composed of a single base station’s information, but an entire network’s information.
The V123_V133 can calculate a position with 30 cm RMS (horizontal) accuracy.
To configure the receiver to use Atlas L-band, a subscription must be purchased.

Supplemental Sensors
Overview
The V123_V133 has a supplemental sensor integrated into the H220 GNSS board that is enabled by default. You can enable/disable the sensor.
The sensor acts to reduce the RTK search volume, which improves heading startup and reacquisition times. This improves the reliability and accuracy of selecting the correct heading solution by eliminating other possible, erroneous solutions.
The Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual describes the commands and methodology required to recalibrate, query, or change the sensor status.
Tilt aiding
The V123_V133’ s internal sensor is factory calibrated and enabled by default and constrains the RTK heading solution beyond the volume associated with a fixed antenna separation.
The V123_V133 knows the approximate inclination of the secondary antenna with respect to the primary antenna. The search space defined by the sensor is reduced to a horizontal ring on the sphere’s surface by reducing the search volume and decreases startup and reacquisition times (see Figure 3-1).

,
Continued
Gyro aiding
The V123_V133’s internal sensor reduces reacquisition times when a GNSS heading is lost due to blocked satellite signals.
The sensor provides a relative change in angle since the last computed heading and defines the search space as a wedge-shaped location (see Figure
3-2).
Figure 3-2: V123_V133 gyro aiding
The gyro aiding accurately smooths the heading output and the ROT. The sensor also provides an alternate source of heading, accurate to within 1º per minute for up to three minutes in times of GNSS loss for either antenna.
If the outage lasts longer than three minutes, the sensor will have drifted too far and the V123_V133 begins outputting null fields in the heading output messages. There is no user control over the timeout period of the sensor.
The sensor initializes itself at power up and during initialization, or you can calibrate it as outlined in the Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual .
For optimal performance, when the sensor is first initializing, the dynamics the sensor experiences during this warm-up period are similar to the regular operating dynamics.

Gyro-aiding updates the post HTAU-smoothed heading. As a result, if the
HTAU value is increased while gyro aiding is enabled, there will be little to no lag in heading output due to vessel maneuvers.
The Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual includes information on setting an appropriate HTAU value for the application.

Time Constants
Overview
The V123_V133 incorporates user-configurable time constants that can provide a degree of smoothing to the heading, pitch, Rate-of-Turn (ROT),
Course-over-Ground (COG), and speed measurements.
You can adjust these parameters depending on the expected dynamics of the vessel. For example, increasing the time is reasonable if the vessel is very large and is not able to turn quickly or would not pitch quickly. The resulting values would have reduced “noise,” resulting in consistent values with time.
If the vessel is quick and nimble, increasing this value can create a lag in measurements.
If you are unsure on how to set this value, it is best to be conservative and leave it at the default setting.
Note:
For heading and rate of turn there is no lag once the sensor is calibrated and enabled.
Formulas for determining the level of smoothing are located in the
Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual . If you are unsure how to set this value, it is best to be conservative and leave the default setting.
Heading
Use the $JATT,HTAU command to adjust the level of responsiveness of the true heading measurement provided in the $GPHDT message. The default value of this constant is 0.1 seconds of smoothing when gyro-aid is enabled.
By disabling gyro-aid, the equivalent default value of the heading time constant should be 0.5 seconds of smoothing. This is not automatic, and therefore it must be manually entered.
Note:
Increasing the time constant increases the level of heading smoothing and increases lag (with gyro-aid disabled).

Pitch
Use the $JATT,PTAU command to adjust the level of responsiveness of the pitch measurement provided in the $PSAT,HPR message. The default value of this constant is 0.5 seconds of smoothing.
Note:
Increasing the time constant increases the level of pitch smoothing and increases lag.
Rate-of-Turn
(ROT)
Course-Over-
Ground (COG)
Speed
Use the $JATT,HRTAU command to adjust the level of responsiveness of the
ROT measurement provided in the $GPROT message. The default value of this constant is 2.0 seconds of smoothing.
Note:
Increasing the time constant increases the level of ROT smoothing.
Use the $JATT,COGTAU command to adjust the level of responsiveness of the
COG measurement provided in the $GPVTG message. The default value of this constant is 0.0 seconds of smoothing.
Note:
Increasing the time constant increases the level of COG smoothing.
COG is computed using only the primary GNSS antenna and its accuracy depends upon the speed of the vessel (noise is proportional to 1/speed).
This value is invalid when the vessel is stationary, as tiny movements due to calculation inaccuracies are not representative of a vessel’s movement.
Use the $JATT,SPDTAU command to adjust the level of responsiveness of the speed measurement provided in the $GPVTG message. The default value of this parameter is 0.0 seconds of smoothing.
Note:
Increasing the time constant increases the level of speed measurement smoothing.

Powering the V123_V133
Power connections
For best performance, use a clean and continuous power supply. The
V123_V133 power supply features reverse polarity protection but will not
operate with reverse polarity. See Table B-4 for complete power
specifications.
Note:
This section refers to powering the unit via serial connection. To power the unit via NMEA 2000 connection, follow the standard procedure for powering up via NMEA 2000.
Before you power up the V123_V133 you must terminate the wires of the power cable as required. There are a variety of power connectors and terminals on the market from which to choose, depending on your specific requirements.
Do not apply a voltage higher than 36 VDC. This will damage the receiver and void the warranty.
To interface the V123_V133 power cable to the power source:
•
Connect the red wire of the cable’s power input to DC positive (+)
• Connect the black wire of the cable’s power input to DC negative (-)
The V123_V133 starts when an acceptable voltage is applied to the power leads of the extension cable.
Electrical isolation
The V123_V133’s power supply is isolated from the communication lines and the PC-ABS plastic enclosure isolates the electronics mechanically from the vessel (addressing the issue of vessel hull electrolysis).

Alarm Functionality
Overview
A relay is located on the Transmit Heading Device (THD) circuit board. The relay contacts are isolated from all circuitry in the THD. The THD is connected to the coil side of the relay, but not to the contacts that are connected to the external pins through the main IO connector.
If the THD loses power or heading, the coil voltage is lost, and the relay opens and activates the notification method employed by the user. When the heading is output, the relay contacts remain closed, completing the circuit as an indication that the V123_V133 is operational.
Note:
Alarm functionality is only valid for serial communication. Alarm pins must be connected to an IMO-certified device.

There are two wires (24 AWG multi-strands) on the output cable that are used for the external alarm function. The color codes for the two wires are white and white/red stripe and are the output of a relay. When the receiver has heading, pins 13 and 14 have continuity. When the receiver loses heading, pins 13 and 14 do not have continuity. The receiver then outputs 4V of power between pins 14 and signal ground (pin 12), triggering the alarm.
The watchdog is a timer controlled by the software which monitors heading loss. The watchdog software is compliant with IEC 60945.

Symptom
Receiver fails to power
No data from
V123_V133
Random data from
V123_V133
No GNSS lock
Possible Solution
• Verify polarity of power leads
• Check integrity of power cable connectors
• Check power input voltage (9 to 36 VDC)
• Check the voltage coming out of the connector at the end of the cable
• Check current restrictions imposed by power source (minimum available should be > 1.0 A)
• Check receiver power status to ensure the receiver is powered
• Verify desired messages are activated (using
PocketMax4 or $JSHOW command in any terminal program)
• Ensure the baud rate of the V123_V133 matches that of the receiving device
• Check integrity and connectivity of power and data cable connections
•
Verify the RTCM or binary messages are not output accidentally (send a $JSHOW command)
•
Ensure the baud rate of the V123_V133 matches that of the remote device
•
The volume of data requested for output by the
V123_V133 could be higher than the current baud rate supports. IMO-compliant units require
38400, and 19200 may be necessary for some non-IMO units (depending on message output settings).
• Verify the V123_V133 has a clear view of the sky
• Use PocketMax4 to check how many satellites are in view and the SNR values

Symptom
No SBAS lock
No Atlas
Possible Solution
• Verify the V123_V133 has a clear view of the sky
• Set SBAS mode to automatic with the
$JWAASPRN,AUTO command
Note:
SBAS lock is only possible if you are in an appropriate SBAS region; currently, there is limited SBAS availability in the southern hemisphere.
•
First, check to see for an Atlas Basic subscription by sending $JK,SHOW to see which commands are listed. Or, connect to
PocketMax4, go to the About tab, and check the listed activations
• Ensure you are tracking the correct Atlas satellite, or set the receiver to ‘Auto-Tune’ by sending $JFREQ,AUTO

Symptom
No heading or incorrect heading value
Possible Solution
• Check CSEP value is constant without varying more than 1 cm (0.39 in)—larger variations may indicate a high multipath environment and require moving the receiver location
• Heading is from primary GNSS antenna to secondary GNSS antenna, so the arrow on the underside of the V123_V133 is directed to the bow side
•
$JATT,SEARCH command forces the
V123_V133 to acquire a new heading solution (unless gyro is enabled)
•
Enable GYROAID to provide heading for up to three minutes during GNSS signal loss
•
Enable TILTAID to reduce heading search times
•
Monitor the number of satellites and SNR values for both antennas within
PocketMax4—at least four satellites should have strong SNR values
• The volume of data requested for output by the V123_V133 could be higher than the current baud rate supports. IMO-compliant units require 38400, and 19200 may be necessary for some non-IMO units
(depending on message output settings)

Symptom
No DGPS position in external RTCM mode
Possible Solution
• Verify the baud rate of the RTCM input port matches the baud rate of the external source
• Verify the pinout between the RTCM source and the RTCM input port (transmit from the source must go to receive of the RTCM input port and grounds must be connected)
• Ensure corrections are being transmitted to the correct port— using the $JDIFF,PORTB command on Port A will cause the receiver to expect the corrections to be input through Port B

Notes:
• The GP of the message is the talker ID
• You can change the message header for the HDG, HDM, HDT, and ROT messages to either GP or HE uses the $JATT,NMEAHE command
−
To preface these messages with GP, issue the following command:
$JATT,NMEAHE,0<CR><LF>
−
To preface these messages with HE, issue the following command:
$JATT,NMEAHE,1<CR><LF>
•
GPGRS, GPGSA, GPGST, and GPGSV support external integrity checking; synchronize with corresponding fix data (GPGGA or GPGNS)
•
For information on outputting roll, pitch, and heave data in one message refer to the
Hemisphere GNSS Technical Reference Manual
• HBT is sent every 30 seconds
• After 60 seconds, a heading loss warning is escalated to an alarm
• Silence timeout is 30 seconds
• THS message definition (from IEC61162-1 ed5): THS – True heading and status
• $HETHS,x.x,a*hh<CR><LF>
• x.x Heading, degrees true
• a Mode indicator (This field should not be null): A = Autonomous, E = Estimated (dead reckoning), V = Data not valid (including standby)
• 50Hz output requires 50Hz-capable firmware plus 50Hz activation
