Page 9: Introduction
OmniSTAR 8200HP DGPS Receiver. System Features The OmniSTAR 8200HP DGPS Receiver is part of the OmniSTAR world-wide DGPS Service. The OmniSTAR service is a full-time differential GPS (DGPS) broadcast system delivering corrections from an array of GPS reference stations located around the globe. -
Page 10: Receiver Features
Housing The 8200HP is housed in an enclosure to provide a complete receiver solution. When connected to an antenna and a power source, the 8200HP is a fully functioning GPS/VBS/XP/HP receiver. The enclosure offers protection against environmental conditions and RF interference. -

Page 13: Installation And Set Up
OmniSTAR 8200HP User Manual Installation and Set Up Installation Considerations Before commencing installation of the OmniSTAR 8200HP in a vehicle or aircraft, the following should be considered: • Determine the preferred location for each unit. Consider cable length, connector attachment space (cable bend radius), stowing excess cable, moisture, chemical corrosion, vibration and heat exposure. -
Page 14: Counter Electromagnetic Force (Cemf)
OmniSTAR 8200HP User Manual Counter Electromagnetic Force (CEMF) A potential problem inherent in any installation of electronic systems within a vehicle is Counter Electro-magnetic Force (CEMF). CEMF is caused when relays or solenoids, connected to the vehicle DC power distribution, are de-energised. The voltage produced may exceed – 400 volts. -
Page 15: Cable Installation
OmniSTAR 8200HP User Manual Cable Installation Cables must be correctly installed for optimum system operation. Therefore, the following should be noted: • Do not route an L-Band receiver remote antenna cable with the cabling of any other radio system. This may cause interference between both systems. -
Page 16: Features And Information
These signals are called strobes. Access to the 8200HP strobe signals can be obtained through both data ports. The strobe available on the 8200HP is the One Pulse Per Second (1 PPS) signal. The falling edge of this signal is synchronised with GPS time. -
Page 17: Antenna Location
Power Supply Requirements The 8200HP can be powered by a vehicle or by a customer-supplied power source of 10-32 VDC, capable of delivering at least 5W continuous output power. For continued protection against the risk of fire, the power lead to the 8200HP receiver should be provided with a 10 A (maximum) fuse. -
Page 18: Operating Considerations
OmniSTAR 8200HP User Manual Operating considerations The 8200HP has proven to be a high-quality positioning device. The accuracy that the user can obtain depends on several factors, including: • Number of visible satellites • Multipath • Dilution of Precision (DOP) •... -
Page 19: Position Dilution Of Precision (Pdop)
When interference levels are too high, the 8200HP may even lose lock to either the OmniSTAR satellite or the GPS satellites. Interference sources include radio and television transmitters, radars,... -
Page 20: Operation
Connect the power leads to a suitable (10-32 V DC) power supply. Getting Started The purpose of this section is to get you started with the 8200HP as quickly as possible. The guide will address receiving the satellite data carrier, and then checking the functionality and status of the HP Process. -

Page 45: Figure 70: System Masks
Mask values and 2D-3D values both lie between 1 and 99. Keep in mind that only a mask value larger than the current 2D-3D value makes sense if the 8200HP is to show ‘graceful degradation’ of the position solution (i.e. 3D – 2D – no position solution). -
Page 46: Figure 72: Position Filter
By default, the position filter is set to PV, normal level and no filtering. CC Filter Figure 73: Carrier Code Filter The 8200HP can use the GPS carrier information to remove noise from the code information, thus improving system performance. Options for the C.C. filter are ‘Reset Filt(New)’ and ‘Propagate (Old)’. -
Page 47: Sub-Menu: Dgps Config
OmniSTAR 8200HP User Manual configured to output the NMEA/TSIP messages at a higher rate (see page 48 of this manual). Default setting of the position rate is 1 Hz. Dynamic Mode Figure 75: Dynamic Mode The receiver can be configured for use in different dynamic modes. Each dynamic mode directly influences the filter settings (see also page 39 of this manual). -
Page 48: Figure 78: Dgps Backup Source Select
Valid range is 0 to 250 seconds, with 250 seconds being the default value. If the last received differential signal is older than the preset age limit, the 8200HP will revert to calculating and outputting a ‘plain’ GPS position. -
Page 49: Figure 80: Ez Sat
The EZ Sat screen is used to easily select an OmniSTAR satellite. Instead of having to look up and enter satellite frequencies manually, just select the appropriate OmniSTAR satellite from a list or let the 8200HP search for the strongest available signal from the OmniSTAR satellites currently in view. -
Page 50: Figure 83: Hp/Xp Autoseed
HP/XP Autoseed Figure 83: HP/XP Autoseed When the 8200HP loses HP/XP lock, getting a new converged HP/XP position after regaining a lock can take quite some time. Seeding the receiver (i.e. input the approximate position and estimated position uncertainties) will reduce the time needed for HP/XP convergence considerably. -
Page 51: Sub-Menu: Port A Config
Figure 85: HP/XP Convergence limit Using the HP/XP Converge screen, the convergence limit for an HP/XP solution can be set. The 8200HP will report a converged HP/XP position when the estimated position error is less than the value set in this screen. Default value is 30 cm / 12 inches. -
