1. INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing the P3E GNSS Receive This Getting Started Guide will provide useful information about your receiver. It will also guide you through your first steps of using P3E GNSS GNSS Receive. 1.1. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE If you have a problem and cannot find the information you need in the product documentation, contact your local dealer from which you purchased the P3E. Alternatively, please request technical support using the CHC Website at (www.chcnav.
1.6. USE AND CARE The P3E Sensor is designed to withstand the rough environment that typically occurs in the field. However, the P3E Sensor is high‐precision electronic equipment and should be treated with reasonable care. 2. OVERVIEW 2.1. FEATURES Designed for seamless integration, multi‐application GNSS Receive or the which P3E is a delivers powerful state‐of‐ the‐art positioning features in a rugged enclosure.
∙ Vertical: 15 mm + 1 ppm RMS ∙ Initialization time: typically < 10 s ∙ Initialization reliability: typically > 99.9% Post Processing Static ∙ Horizontal: 3mm + 0.5ppm RMS ∙ Vertical: 5mm + 0.5ppm RMS ∙ Baseline Length: ≤ 300 km Communications 1x LAN port: ∙ 1 port with RJ45 connector supports links to 10BaseT/100BaseT networks.
User Interface PC Control Utility via Serial Web User Interface ∙ Secure ∙ Allows remote configuration, data retrieval and firmware updates ∙ Setup of multiple streaming / monitoring ports Antenna option A220GR GNSS Geodetic Antenna, and C220GR GNSSChoke Ring Antenna (1)Accuracy and reliability specifications may be affected by multipath, satellite geometry and atmospheric conditions. Performances assume minimum of 5 sat ellites,follow up of recommended general GPS practices.
2M Internet Cable 3. P3E DESCRIPTION 3.1. RECEIVER FRONT VIEW Power LED Switch button Satellites LED Power Button 10 Pin Lemo Serial Port 1 Use this port to connect the P3E CHC to PC or PDA and also to supplypower to receiver via the CHC Data Cable. Refer to Appendix A for the LEMO pin out diagram. GPS Antenna Connector The TNC GPS antenna connector allows connection of the external GNSS antenna to the P3EGNSS. 3.2. SOFTWARE INSTALLATION 3.2.
CAUTION: To validate the Setting you need to turn the P3E receiver OFF and then ON. HCGPRSCe Radio and built‐in GPRS module setup. RTKCe / LandstarSoftware to perform RTK Surveying Data collection (requires activation). 3.2.2 INSTALLING CHC SOFTWARE The P3E software RTKCe, HCGPSSet and HCGPRSCe are bundled in one combined CAB format installation package. To install, copy the installation file to your PDAor PC and double click the on the CAB file.
3.4. SYSTE INSTALLATION 3.4.1 SUPPORTED GNSS ANTENNAS CHC recommends the use of the CHC A220GR GNSS Antenna or CHC C220GR GNSS Choke Ring with the P3E GNSS Receive Other GNSS antennas may however be used ensuring that the antenna receive the proper GNSS frequencies and operates at either 3.3V or 7.1V with a signal greater than 40 dB at the antenna port. 3.4.2 INSTALLING THE ANTENNAS Choosing the correct location for the GNSS antenna is critical to the installation.
3.4.3 P3E CONNECTION DIAGRAM Typical connection diagram of the P3E + A220GR Antenna connected to main power and PC. GNSS Antenna Cable Data+PowerCable 4. P3E CONFIGURATION USING TRIMBLE™ SOFTWARE SUITE This chapter gives a brief introduction of how to use the native OEM Trimble™ BD970 software to configure P3E GNSS Receive. For more details please read Appendix 3 ‐ “Configuration P3E Using Web Interface” 4.1.
Click Next Select Load GPS software and then click Next. From the Available Software list, select the latest version and then click Next. If all is correct, click Finish, then Click OK. The Software Upgrade window appears again and states that the operation was completed successfully.
5.1.2 IP configuration Start WinFlash and follow the instruction below to set the static IP of N71 sensor to log on internet.
4.2. CONFIGURATION OF P3E OUTPUT ADDRESS WITH TOOLBOX™ We recommend that you use the Web interface to configure the receiver and monitor its status. Not all receiver functions are supported in the Configuration Toolbox software. The Configuration Toolbox is the only utility that can be used to load local datums and coordinate systems into the receiver.
4.2.1 SETTHE DATA STREAM OUTPUT Run ToolBox software, create and save the application file in the Configuration Toolbox software, Select setting to ‘Applied immediately’ or ‘Store in receiver’ Click on ‘Serial’ under the Available selection box Click Add to enable Serial – Port 1 Select the appropriate Baud Rate. Click on ‘Output’ under the Available selection box Click Add to enable Output type selection Select NMEA, Port 1 and appropriate Baud Rate 4.2.
After built the application file, go to active the files. If the configuration file is stored on the receiver Go to Communications Menu Activate File Select the Current File Click on ‘Activate File’ 4.3. CONFIGURATION OF P3E WITH WEBEXPLORE™ When connecting the P3E to your PC using the LAN cable for the first time, follow the steps, if you already configuration P3E static IP (in Chapter 5.1.2), please directly using this static IP to configuration P3E.
