Defining Antenna And Base Antenna; Base Station Configuration - Novatel SMART7 Installation And Operation Manual

SMART7 Operation
The data link should support a rate of at least 19200 bits per second, but a rate of 115200 bits
per second, with less than 4.0 s latency, is recommended.
Unlike the base/rover concept, SBAS and L-Band corrections can be applied directly to a
single receiver.
When the base and rover are set up, configure them as shown in the configuration examples in
Base Station Configuration below and Rover Station Configuration on the next page.

3.3.1 Defining Antenna and Base Antenna

The type of antenna for the receiver and/or the base receiver can be defined using the
THISANTENNATYPE command and BASEANTENNATYPE command respectively.
The Phase Center Variation (PCV) and the Phase Center Offset (PCO) for each can also be spe-
cified using the THISANTENNAPCV command and THISANTENNAPCO command or the
BASEANTENNAPCV command and BASEANTENNAPCO command.
Refer to the Agriculture Commands and Logs Reference Manual

3.3.2 Base Station Configuration

At the base station, enter the following commands:
serialconfig [port] baud [parity[databits[stopbits[handshaking[break]]]]]
interfacemode port rx_type tx_type [responses]
fix position latitude longitude height (enter your own lat, long and hgt values)
log port message [trigger [period]] (port = COM2 / refer to Figure 9: Basic
Differential Setup on the previous page)
saveconfig (optional)
For example:
RTK Automated Correction Generation
fix position lat lon hgt (enter your own lat, lon, hgt)
generatertkcorrections rtcmv3 com2
RTCM V3
serialconfig com2 19200 N 8 1 N on
interfacemode com2 none rtcmv3 off
fix position lat lon hgt (enter your own lat, lon, hgt)
log com2 rtcm1004 ontime 1
log com2 rtcm1006 ontime 10
log com2 rtcm1019 ontime 120
saveconfig (optional)
RTCM V3 with GLONASS
serialconfig com2 19200 N 8 1 N on
