Figure 34: CAN-Acquisition tab
Serial 1 Output tab
The serial port can be configured to output different types of message (see Table 24).
Select a Packet type and Baud rate. By default, data on the serial port is output using 8-N-1, although odd/even
parity and two stop bits are available by using Advanced commands. Please contact support@oxts.com for
details on this.
If the NMEA packet type is selected, the NMEA tab will appear in the properties window. In this tab the NMEA
messages to output on the serial port are selected by choosing the data rate for each message type from the
dropdown lists and clicking the checkbox for when to generate the message.
NMEA messages can also be generated in response to event input triggers. Check the falling or rising edge
checkbox to compute the message when the event occurs. The RT can also generate NMEA messages from
pulses on the output trigger. These messages use interpolation to compute the values at the exact time of the
event but may be output on the serial port up to 30 ms late and out of order compared to the normal messages.
To enable these messages check the appropriate checkbox.
