Running GPSolution4 to Record OEM4 Data to a File
Here is a simple set of instructions to run GPSolution4 to record raw data to a file on your hard
disk. The examples in this bulletin are for the OEM4 family of GPS receivers.
1. Prepare the Receiver so that it is complete with mounting and wiring interfaces and ready
for operation. If you purchased your receiver an enclosure, it is ready for immediate
operation.
2. Connect your antenna to the antenna port of the enclosure, or the RF connector on an
OEM4 Card, using an interconnecting coaxial cable.
3. Connect a null-modem serial cable from your GPS receiver COM1 port to your PC COM1
port.
4. Connect a power supply to your receiver.
5. Run GPSolution4 on your PC.
6. Click on Device | Open from the main menu. The Open Configuration dialog will appear.
The example below shows an Open Configuration dialog with two possible configurations
already set up. Your configurations may be different or you may have none to start with,
in which case
the Open Configuration window would be empty.
