The automotive grade NLC103-232 module has been designed to provide accurate
and reliable navigation information trough a RS-232 link.
Based on the Copernicus™ high performance GPS chip, it delivers accurate
position information, even in poor signal level environments (tree foliage,
urban
canyons). |
| The latest Enfora GPRS technology has been integrated in this module. It
allows you to track vehicles or beacons (data reported: position, speed,
internal temperature, 3D accelerometer data).The NLC103-232 is an ultra-low
power embedded tracking and reporting system. |
| Upon request, other advanced features could be integrated in the NLC103-232
to interface with your system without the need to develop your own functions. |
- Very-high sensitivity of -160dBm, enabling high performance in low
level signals environments.
- Time to get first fix information is around 38s (cold start).
- Quad Band GPRS modem, configurable in UDP or TCP mode. E-mails
and SMS can also be sent to report status of the module.
- A configurable RS232 or RS422 serial port can be accessed for monitoring
and control : NMEA and Trimble TSIP & TAIP
protocol.
- Accurate PPS (pulse per second) signal (±60ns) available
on SUB-D9 front panel. RS232, RS422 or TTL level.
- Active antenna is voltage selectable : 3.3V or 5V (patented).
- Back-up capacitor with an autonomy of 30 days for hot start-up after
a power cut.
|
- 3D accelerometer for detection of motion, shocks, vibration.
- Fully programmable standby mode with less than 0.1µA power consumption
(patented). Wake up by internal RTC or external event.
- Data logging: position, speed, time, internal temperature and accelerometer
data backed-up to a 2Mega EPROM: up to 15 000 positions. Programmable
status LED on front panel.
- Logic and analog input/output for your specific applications.
- Customizable firmware to fit your requirements.
- Firmware upgraded directly via RS232 link.
|
- Metal housing, ruggedized and compact.
- RS232/RS422 port is 15kV ESD protected +60V
fault protected.
- Protection against short circuit and over-voltage on the antenna.
- Robust power supply, protected against transients and reverse polarity.
|
- Connectors are compliant with automotive standards.
- The NLC103-232 module has successfully completed compliance testing in
accordance with the
directive.
