1. Make sure the "Interface Switch" is at RS-232 / USB side (and not SPI side).
2. Connect the jumpers J4, J7 and J6 as above (There is a white box drawn around the pins of these jumpers).
3. Connect the evaluation board to a PC by micro USB cable and / or RS-232.
•
If a USB cable is used the device is powered by the USB cable.
A USB connection creates a virtual COM port to the PC.
o
•
If an RS-232 interface is used, the device can be powered by USB cable or by the digital connector
connecting 5 V to pin 2 and GND to pin 18.
4. Connect the active antenna to the "Active" (Active antenna input) or the simulator to the "Passive" input
(Simulator input).
5. Start the u-center GNSS Evaluation Software and select the corresponding COM port and baud rate, 9600
Bd by default (refer to the u-center User Guide [4] for more information).
