1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The
Rikaline
GPS-6017 Smart Antenna is a total solution GPS receiver, designed based on SiRF Star III
SOC single chip architecture. This positioning application meets strict needs such as car navigation, mapping,
surveying, security, agriculture and so on. Only clear view of sky and certain power supply are necessary to the
unit. It communicates with other electronic utilities via compatible dual-channel through RS-232 or TTL and
saves critical satellite data by built–in backup memory. With low power consumption, the GPS-6017 tracks up
to 12 satellites at a time, re-acquires satellite signals in 100 ms and updates position data every second.
Trickle-Power (optional function) allows the unit operates a fraction of the time and Push-to-Fix (optional
function) permits user to have a quick position fix even though the receiver usually stays off.
1.2 Features
The GPS-6017 provides a host of features that make it easy for integration and use.
1) Fast acquisition: 20 parallel satellites acquisition
2) Advanced GPS chip: SiRF Star III SOC
3) Fast TTFF: 200,000 effective correlators for fast TTFF at low signal levels
4) Built-in WAAS/EGNOS (Optional model for WAAS/EGNOS covered area) and DGPS for accurate
positioning result.
5) Quick Host start: Built-in rechargeable Lithium battery for backup ephemeris for quick hot start.
6) Support MNEA 0183V2.2 data protocol.
7) Enhanced algorithms provide superior navigation performance in urban, canyon and foliage
Environments.
8) User initialization is not required.
9) LED display status: The LED provides users visible positioning status. LED “BLINKING” when power
connected and stays “ON” when GPS-6017 position identified. No more extra device needed.
10) Built-in Magnets for using on top of the car.
11) Water proof (1 meter) design for all weather.
