Trimble Outdoors 332 GPS Receiver User Manual


 
2 Overview
8 AgGPS 332 GPS Receiver User Guide
1 PPS output
To synchronize timing between external instruments and the
internal clock in the receiver, the connection port outputs a
strobe signal at 1 PPS (pulse per second). To output this signal,
the receiver must be tracking satellites and computing GPS
positions.
J1939 (CAN) bus
Both connection ports on the receiver support the J1939
Controller Area Network (CAN) bus protocol. This protocol
standardizes the way multiple microprocessor-based electronic
control units (ECUs) communicate with each other over the
same pair of wires. It is used in off-highway machines, such as
those used in agriculture, construction, and forestry.

(SAE) International website at www.sae.org/servlets/index.
ISO 11783 messages
Both CAN ports support some ISO 11783 messages.
Position output format
The AgGPS receiver outputs positions in Degrees, Minutes, and
Decimal Minutes (DDD°MM.m'). This is the NMEA standard format
and is commonly used worldwide for data transfer between electronic
equipment.
