  • Page 8: Conformance Notices

    Conformance notices The AV200 complies with the radiated emission limits for 47 CFR 15.109:2010 class A of Part 15 subpart B of the FCC rules, and with the emission and immunity limits for class A of EN 55022. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in business, commercial and industrial uses.
  • Page 9: Hardware Description

    GNSS receivers and inertial sensors is done seamlessly in real-time for a continuous 100 Hz navigation output. Data is automatically logged to the 32 GB eMMC for added data protection. Figure 1 and Figure 2 show the key points of note on the AV200. The numbered labels are described in Table 3.

    Y-axis points right and the positive Z-axis points down. The AV200 can be mounted in any orientation, it is not necessary for its axes to match those of the host vehicle. The configuration file will specify the transformation from the IMU frame to the vehicle frame.

    Figure 6: PPS waveform User cable The AV200 evaluation kit is supplied with a user cable for quick access to the main interfaces. Figure 7 shows the cable diagram and Table 8 shows the pin descriptions for the interface connectors.
  • Page 16: Ethernet Configuration

    The AV200 outputs its data over Ethernet using a UDP broadcast. The use of a UDP broadcast allows everyone on the network to receive the data sent by the AV200. The data rate of the UDP broadcast is 100 Hz.
  • Page 17: Mounting

    AV200 by default. Mounting It is essential to mount the AV200 rigidly in the vehicle. The AV200 should not be able to move or rotate compared to the GNSS antennas, otherwise the performance will be reduced. In most circumstances the AV200 should be mounted directly to the chassis of the vehicle.
  • Page 18: Antennas

    It is important to get the order of the rotations correct. The AV200 can be mounted at any angle in the vehicle as long as the orientation is described in the configuration. This allows the outputs to be rotated based on the settings entered to transform the measurements to the vehicle frame.
  • Page 19: Internal Storage

    (NAVconfig for configuration files and NAVsolve for data files). The AV200 starts logging data automatically on power-up. Each individual raw data file (*.rd) can be a maximum of 2 GB, equivalent to around one full day of logging at 100 Hz data rate with four GNSS constellations.

    Electrical specifications This section lists the recommended electrical operating conditions for the AV200. Table 9: I/O interface electrical specifications I/O signal Input voltage low (V) Input voltage high (V) Output voltage low (V) Output voltage high (V) Output current (mA) Note: triggers are pulled up internally to allow a switch to be used to short them to Ground.

    Typical values, subject to ionospheric/tropospheric conditions, satellite geometry, baseline length, multipath. Requires clear view of the sky and appropriate differential corrections to achieve full specification. Using dual antenna with 1 m separation baseline. Higher accuracy can be achieved with wider antenna separation. Table 12: AV200 inertial sensor specifications Accelerometers Value Full range ±8 g...
  • Page 22: Notes On Specifications

    ▪ The heading accuracy that can be achieved by the dual antenna system in the AV200 is 0.2° 1σ per metre of separation in ideal, open sky conditions. Increasing the separation improves the performance linearly.
