GNSS receiver configuration commands

constellation

Syntax

constellation {gps | gps-glonass}

Context

config>card>mda>gnss

Description

This command configures which GNSS system or systems will be used by the GNSS receiver. The configuration can be modified only when the GNSS service is shut down.

Default

gps

Parameters

gps

configures the GNSS receiver to use the American GPS GNSS system

gps-glonass

configures the GNSS receiver to use both the American GPS GNSS system and the Russian GLONASS GNSS system

nmea

Syntax

nmea

Context

config>card>mda>gnss

Description

This command enables the context for configuring NMEA parameters.

sentence-types

Syntax

sentence-types sentence-type [sentence-type...(up to 4 max)]

Context

config>card>mda>gnss>nmea

Description

This command configures NMEA sentence types that are sent from the GNSS receiver over the associated IP transport service when the service is configured for NMEA streaming. The following sentence types are supported: GGA, RMC, VTG, and GNS. For information about the sentence types, see NMEA 0183, Standard For Interfacing Marine Electronic Devices.

At least one sentence type must be specified, up to a maximum of four. Different sentence types can be specified concurrently so that multiple sentences can be streamed per NMEA sentence interval.

Default

gga

Parameters

sentence-type

an NMEA sentence type to be streamed

Values

gga — this sentence is for time, position, and fix-related data for a GNSS receiver

rmc — this sentence is for time, date, position, course, and speed data provided by the GNSS receiver

vtg — this sentence is for vector track and speed relative to the ground

gns — this sentence is for time, position, and fix-related data for single or combined constellations for a GNSS receiver.

sentence-interval

Syntax

sentence-interval interval

Context

config>card>mda>gnss>nmea

Description

This command configures the intervals at which NMEA sentences are retrieved from the GNSS receiver and sent over the associated IP transport service configured for NMEA streaming.

Default

5 s

Parameters

interval

time, in seconds, between the sending of NMEA sentences

Values

1 to 3600

shutdown

Syntax

[no] shutdown

Context

config>card>mda>gnss>nmea

Description

This command enables or disables NMEA streaming from the GNSS receiver. The no form of the command enables NMEA streaming. Using the shutdown command disables NMEA streaming.

The node uses an IP transport service to send NMEA sentences from the GNSS receiver to remote hosts. For information about enabling IP transport for NMEA sentences, see the 7705 SAR-Hm and SAR-Hmc Main Configuration Guide, "GNSS NMEA data IP transport service".

Default

shutdown

shutdown

Syntax

[no] shutdown

Context

config>card>mda>gnss

Description

This command enables or disables the GNSS service on the GNSS receiver. Enabling the GNSS receiver causes MDA 1/1 to reset under the following conditions:

  • when the configuration of the constellation command changes

  • the first time the GNSS receiver is enabled after a firmware update of the cellular MDA

The no form of the command enables the GNSS service. Using the shutdown command disables the GNSS receiver and resets the position fix and associated information.

Default

shutdown
