Receiver Options - ashtech DG16 Reference Manual

In addition, your DG16 could have one or more of the following hardware options:
• A optional third RS-232 serial port
• TTL connections for Ports A and B and optional Port C instead of RS-232
connections
• A OSX RF connector instead of a right angle SMA connector for the RF
connector
• 3.3 VDC as the prime power instead of 5 VDC

Receiver Options

The DG16 has a number of available options. The options that are set in the
receiver will determine which commands and features you can use. For example,
if the photogrammetry option is not installed, you will not be able to use the
$PASHS,TTT command to output event time tags from the serial port.
The $PASHQ,RIO command queries for the receiver's configuration. The
response message includes version numbers for the processor and channel
firmware, a list of installed options, and the receiver's serial identification number.
The response is output in the format:
$PASHR,RIO,f1,f2,f3,f4,f5*cc
where Table 1.6 outlines the parameters.
