External Receiver Minimum Configuration Requirements

Before the Matrix Pro GS will connect and work with an external GNSS
receiver, these minimum configuration requirements must be met.

GNSS Data Rate

When using the internal GNSS receiver, GNSS Data Rate sets the
GNSS Port baud rate and frequency of NMEA messages available
on the console RS232 port.
NOTE: FieldPilot Pro / UniPilot Pro require the Fast settings;
therefore, options will be unavailable when FieldPilot Pro /
UniPilot Pro is unlocked.
1. Press DOWN arrow
to access the list of options.
2. Select:
►Fast (115,200 + 10 Hz) – 115200 baud rate, GGA @ 10 Hz,
VTG @ 10 Hz, ZDA @ 1 Hz
►Slow (19,200 + 5Hz) – 19200 baud rate, GGA @ 5 Hz,
VTG @ 5 Hz, ZDA @ 1 Hz

GNSS Status Information

GNSS Status Information displays a snapshot of the current GNSS
status information.
1. Press .
View Status
2. View data including:
◄Baud Rate – the current status of the GNSS
◄Baud Rate Status – the rate at which information is
transferred/ communicated.
NOTE: a minimal baud rate maybe required for some
software version to work at their peak performance.
◄GGA/VTG/TCP Data Rates – the number of GNSS positions
per second.
◄Number of Satellites – the number of GNSS satellites in view
(minimum of 4 are required for DGPS)
◄HDOP – a measure of satellite geometry strength in the
horizontal plane. A HDOP value of less than 2 is preferred.
◄PRN – the current DGPS satellite ID
◄GGA Quality – the current quality indicator of the GNSS signal
(see GGA Requirements chart)
◄Receiver – the current indicator of the receiver
◄Receiver Version – the software version installed on the
receiver
◄UTM Zone – zone where currently located (see "UTM
Coordinates and Zones" in this manual)
◄Model – the correction models available to be used with the
current receiver configuration
to return to the GNSS Receiver Configuration screen.
3. Press
OK
NOTE: If GNSS is not available, all entries will be "Invalid".
