Connecting 2 GPS Units to an Automatic GPS Select Switch

An automatic GPS select switch (NCZ-1537A) can be used to connect and automatically switch
between two GPS units. The No. 1 GPS unit normally outputs data, but when it is not performing
positioning, the No. 2 GPS unit is automatically switched over to.
To perform automatic switching, the two GPS units must be connected in a LAN, and the No. 2
GPS unit must output control signaling to the automatic GPS select switch.
Set the No. 1 GPS unit LAN setting mutual monitoring to "On".
Set the No. 2 GPS unit LAN setting mutual monitoring to "On", and set the control signal output
port data format to "SWITCH".
Set the Dip switch (S1) on NCZ-1537A to 1: ON and 2: ON.
