ANT-GNSSCP-TH18L1 - Linx

ANT-GNSSCP-TH18L1 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended antenna for this module?
  Linx Technologies recommends using a 15mm x 15mm ceramic patch antenna or a 25mm x 25mm patch antenna with a gain of 3-5 dBi for optimal performance.
• How do I configure the module for different GNSS systems (e.g. GPS, GLONASS, Galileo)?
  The module can be configured using the NMEA protocol commands. For example, to enable GPS and GLONASS, send the command '$PMTK251,3,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0*29' to the module.
• What is the typical current consumption of the module?
  The typical current consumption of the ANT-GNSSCP-TH18L1 module is around 25-30 mA during continuous operation, but it can vary depending on the GNSS system being used and the signal strength.
• How do I ensure the module is receiving a valid GNSS signal?
  The module provides a 'Fix' signal that indicates when a valid GNSS signal is being received. You can also monitor the NMEA data output to verify the signal quality and accuracy.
• Can I use this module for high-dynamic applications (e.g. drones, vehicles)?
  Yes, the ANT-GNSSCP-TH18L1 module is suitable for high-dynamic applications due to its high-sensitivity receiver and ability to track signals at high speeds (up to 500 m/s). However, additional filtering and processing may be required to ensure accurate and reliable data.
