Table 11: Active Antenna Supervisor Message on startup (UBX binary protocol)
To activate the antenna supervisor use the UBX-CFG-ANT message. For further information refer to the
u-blox 5 Receiver Description including Protocol Specification [2].
Similar to the antenna supervisor configuration, the status of the antenna supervisor will be reported in a NMEA
($GPTXT) or UBX (INF-NOTICE) message at start-up and on every change.
Message
Description
ANTSTATUS=DONTKNOW
Active antenna supervisor is not configured and deactivated.
ANTSTATUS=OK
Active antenna connected and powered
ANTSTATUS=SHORT
Antenna short
ANTSTATUS=OPEN

Table 12: Active antenna supervisor message on startup (NMEA protocol)
The open circuit supervisor circuitry shown in Figure 37 has a quiescent current of approximately 2mA.
This current can be reduced with an advanced circuitry such as shown in Figure 36.
