An Error Strobe signal is not available on the OEM719. When the receiver is in an error state, information about the error is provided in the RXSTATUS log.
Page 88: Error Word
Chapter 4 Built-In Status Tests If the receiver status word indicates a problem, see Examining the RXSTATUS Log on page 108. 4.4.2 Error Word The error field contains a 32-bit word. Each bit in the word is used to indicate an error condition. Error conditions may result in damage to the hardware or erroneous data, so the receiver is put into an error state.
Page 89: Receiver Status Code
Chapter 4 Built-In Status Tests mask words are used to modify the behavior caused by a change in one of the bits in the associated status words. Each bit, in any mask, operates on the bit in the same position in the status word. For example, setting bit 3 in the priority mask changes the priority of bit 3 in the status word.
Page 90: Figure 34: Status Led Flash Sequence Example
Chapter 4 Built-In Status Tests Error bits and status bits that have been priority masked as errors cause the LED to flash a code in a binary sequence. The binary sequence is a six flash (0.5 second on and 0.25 second off per flash) sequence followed by a one second delay.

Page 100: Chapter 7 Can Bus
Chapter 7 CAN Bus The OEM7 receivers support the following CAN protocols: J1939 Transport and Extended Transport Protocol: used for corrections and NovAtel messages (both trans- mitting and receiving) NMEA2000: used for standard as well as NovAtel-proprietary messages (transmitting only) By default, CAN is disabled on OEM7 receivers.
Page 101: Default Configuration
Chapter 7 CAN Bus For information about these commands, see the OEM7 Commands and Logs Reference Manual. Details for the PGN messages can be found in the NMEA2000 specification which can be purchased directly from the National Marine Electronics Association (www.nmea.org/). 7.1 Default Configuration After a FRESET, the receiver has the following CAN configuration: All CAN physical ports are disabled...
Page 102: Example Of Enabling The Can Bus
Chapter 7 CAN Bus CANCONFIG CANx ON are entered. Use J1939STATUS log to determine the receiver's CAN status and the actual address claimed by a par- ticular node. Once the receiver is "on bus", it must be taken "off-bus" using CANCONFIG for any further configuration changes using J1939CONFIG.
Page 103: Address Claim Procedure
J1939CONFIG command. 7.3 NMEA2000 Logging OEM7 receivers support both a subset of the standard NMEA2000 PGNs, as well as NovAtel proprietary PGNs. All NMEA2000 logs are configured using the LOG command, where the COM port is a CAN port (CCOM). The CCOM port must be associated with a J1939 node using the CCOMCONFIG command.
Page 104: Corrections Over Can
A single CCOM port cannot be used for both Binary messages and corrections. If the CCOM port is configured as NOVATEL, all input is interpreted as NovAtel ASCII or Abbreviated ASCII. Unlike other COM ports, the receiver will not distinguish between ASCII and binary input.
Page 105: Configuring Oem7 Receivers To Use Oem6 Can Settings
It is recommended to use one dedicated CCOM port for NovAtel messages and another dedicated CCOM port for corrections. NovAtel UI configuration does not affect NMEA2000. Any CCOM port can be used for NMEA2000 logs irrespective of CCOMCONFIG settings. To configure NovAtel User Interface over CAN: 1.
Page 106 Chapter 7 CAN Bus A full address claim procedure with default values is initiated with the CANCONFIG ON command. The J1939CONFIG command can be used to modify the default address claim parameters including the Man- ufacturingCode (set to 603 in the SETCANNAME example above, now defaults to 305 in the new J1939CONFIG) but it's not necessary.

R9). If the additional surge protection is to be used on a design, the buffer must be included as well. This design has been used to protect EVENT_IN signals from EN61000-4-5 induced surges up to 2kV on several NovAtel enclosure products. If nanosecond-level timing is critical to the application, this protection circuit may be unsuit- able, as it causes a timing shift of a few microseconds to the EVENT signal (heavily dependent on temperature).

Page 231: Communication Ports
APPENDIX F Receiver Card Interface Examples F.3 Communication Ports The COM ports on OEM7 receivers (except COM1 on the OEM729) are CMOS-level I/O pins only. These ports require the addition of an RS-232 or RS-422 transceiver to provide appropriate signal levels. Most RS-232 or RS- 422 transceivers will provide some ESD protection (for harsh environments, additional protection may be required).
Page 232: Can Controller Ports
APPENDIX F Receiver Card Interface Examples F.4 CAN Controller Ports OEM7 receivers provide 3.3 V CMOS-level CAN controller ports. An external CAN transceiver is required. The following figure shows a typical CAN transceiver implementation. The combination of ferrite beads and small-value capacitors are not necessarily required but may provide improved EMI performance.
