However, if you connect the receiver to a different USB port, Windows detects the receiver's presence on that USB port and assign three new COM port numbers.6.5 Firmware UpgradesThe receiver stores its program firmware in non-volatile memory, which allows you to perform firmware upgrades without having to return the receiver to the distributor. New firmware can be transferred to the receiver through COM1, and the unit will immediately be ready for operation at a higher level of performance.The first step in upgrading your receiver is to contact your local NovAtel dealer. Your dealer will assist you in selecting the best upgrade option that suits your specific GPS needs. If your needs are still unresolved after seeing your dealer then you can contact NovAtel directly through any of the methods described in the Customer Service section, see Page 18, at the beginning of this manual.When you call, be sure to have available your receiver model number, serial number, and program revision level. This information can be found by issuing the LOG VERSION command at the port prompt.After establishing which new model/revision level would best suit your needs, and having described the terms and conditions, you will be issued an authorization code (auth-code). The auth-code is required to unlock the new features according to your authorized upgrade model type.To upgrade to a higher performance model at the same firmware revision level (for example, upgrading from an OEMV-3-L1 to an OEMV-3-RT2 on firmware version 3.000), you can use the AUTH command with the issued auth-code.If you are upgrading to a higher firmware revision level (for example, upgrading an OEMV-3-RT2 firmware version 3.000 to OEMV-3-RT2 firmware version 3.100), you will need to transfer new program firmware to the OEMV family receiver using the WinLoad utility program. As WinLoad and the upgrade file are generally provided in a compressed file format, you will also be given a decompression password. WinLoad and the upgrade files can be found on NovAtel's FTP site at http://www.novatel.com, or can be sent to you on disk or by e-mail.Your local NovAtel dealer will provide you with all the information that you require to upgrade your receiver.
PC Software and Firmware Chapter 6 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5B 1136.5.1 Upgrading Using the AUTH CommandThe AUTH command is a special input command which authorizes the enabling or unlocking of the various model features. Use this command when upgrading to a higher performance OEMV family model available within the same revision level as your current model (for example, upgrading from an OEMV-3-L1 to an OEMV-3-RT2 on firmware version 3.000). This command only functions in conjunction with a valid auth-code assigned by Customer Service.The upgrade can be performed directly from CDU's Command Line Screen, or from any other communications program. The procedure is as follows:1) Power-up the OEMV family receiver and establish communications over a serial port (see Chapter 4, Operation on Page 56)2) Issue the LOG VERSION command to verify the current firmware model number, revision level, and serial number.3) Issue the AUTH command, followed by the auth-code and model type. The syntax is as follows:Syntax:auth auth-codewhere auth is a special command which allows program model upgradesauth-code is the upgrade authorization code, expressed as hhhh,hhhh,hhhh,hhhh,hhhh,model# where the h characters are an ASCII hexadecimal code, and the model# would be ASCII textExample:auth 17cb,29af,3d74,01ec,fd34,l1l2lrvrt2Once the AUTH command has been executed, the OEMV family receiver will reboot itself. Issuing the LOG VERSION command will confirm the new upgrade model type and version number.If communicating using CDU, the communication path needs to be closed and re-opened using the Device menu.6.5.2 Updating Using the WinLoad UtilityWinLoad is required (instead of the AUTH command) when upgrading previously released firmware with a newer version of program and model firmware (for example, upgrading an OEMV-3-RT2 firmware version 3.000 to OEMV-3-RT2 firmware version 3.100). WinLoad is a Windows utility program designed to facilitate program and model upgrades. Once WinLoad is installed and running, it will allow you to select a host PC serial port, bit rate, directory path, and file name of the new program firmware to be transferred to the OEMV family receiver via its COM1, COM2 or COM3 port. The port chosen must have an RS-232 interface to the PC.Transferring Firmware FilesTo proceed with your program upgrade, you must first acquire the latest firmware revision. You will need a file with a name such as OEMXXXX.EXE (where XXXX is the firmware revision level). This file is available from NovAtel's FTP site (http://www.novatel.com), or via e-mail (support@novatel.ca). If transferring is not possible, the file can be mailed to you on floppy disk. For
114 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BChapter 6 PC Software and Firmware more information on how to contact NovAtel Customer Service please see Page 18 at the beginning of this manual.You will need at least 1 MB of available space on your hard drive. For convenience, you may wish to copy this file to a GPS sub-directory (for example, C:\GPS\LOADER).The file is available in a compressed format with password protection; Customer Service will provide you with the required password. After copying the file to your computer, it must be decompressed. The syntax for decompression is as follows:Syntax:[filename] [password]where filename is the name of the compressed file (but not including the .EXE extension) and password is the password required to allow decompressionExample:oem1001 12345678A windows-based dialog box is provided for password entry.The self-extracting archive will then generate the following files:WinLoad.exe WinLoad utility programHowTo.txt Instructions on how to use the WinLoad utilityWhatsNew.txt Information on the changes made in the firmware since the last revisionXXXX.hex Firmware version upgrade file, where XXXX = program version level (for example, 1001.hex)Using the WinLoad UtilityWinLoad is a windows based program used to download firmware to OEMV family cards.

118 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BChapter 7 Built-In Status Tests7.1 OverviewThe built in test monitors system performance and status to ensure the receiver is operating within its specifications. If an exceptional condition is detected, the user is informed through one or more indicators. The receiver status system is used to configure and monitor these indicators: 1. Receiver status word (included in the header of every message)2. ERROR strobe signal (see Section 3.3.1, Strobes on Page 44)3. RXSTATUSEVENT log4. RXSTATUS log5. Status LEDIn normal operation the error strobe is driven low and the status LED on the receiver flashes green. When an unusual and non-fatal event occurs (for example, there is no valid position solution), a bit is set in the receiver status word. Receiver operation continues normally, the error strobe remains off, and the LED continues to flash green. When the event ends (for example, when there is a valid position solution), the bit in the receiver status word is cleared. When a fatal event occurs (for example, in the event of a receiver hardware failure), a bit is set in the receiver error word, part of the RXSTATUS log, to indicate the cause of the problem. Bit 0 is set in the receiver status word to show that an error occurred, the error strobe is driven high, and the LED flashes red and yellow showing an error code. An RXSTATUSEVENT log is generated on all ports to show the cause of the error. Receiver tracking is disabled at this point but command and log processing continues to allow you to diagnose the error. Even if the source of the error is corrected at this point, the receiver must be reset to resume normal operation.The above two paragraphs describe factory default behavior. Customizing is possible to better suit an individual application. RXSTATUSEVENT logs can be disabled completely using the UNLOG command. RXSTATUSEVENT logs can be generated when a receiver status bit is set or cleared by using the STATUSCONFIG SET and STATUSCONFIG CLEAR commands. Bits in the receiver status word can also be promoted to be treated just like error bits using the STATUSCONFIG PRIORITY command.7.2 Receiver Status WordThe receiver status word indicates the current status of the receiver. This word is found in the header of all logs and in the RXSTATUS log. In addition the receiver status word is configurable. The receiver gives the user the ability to determine the importance of the status bits. This is done using the priority masks. In the case of the Receiver Status, setting a bit in the priority mask will cause the condition to trigger an error. This will cause the receiver to idle all channels, turn off the antenna, and disable the RF hardware, the same as if a bit in the Receiver Error word is set. Setting a bit in an Auxiliary Status priority mask will cause that condition to set the bit in the Receiver Status word corresponding to that Auxiliary Status.The STATUSCONFIG command is used to configure the various status mask fields in the
Built-In Status Tests Chapter 7 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5B 119RXSTATUSEVENT log. These masks allow you to modify whether various status fields generate errors or event messages when they are set or cleared. This is meant to allow you to customize the operation of your OEMV family receiver for your specific needs.Refer to the RXSTATUS log, RXSTATUSEVENT log and STATUSCONFIG command in the OEMV Firmware Reference Manual for more detailed descriptions of these messages.7.3 Error Strobe SignalThe error strobe signal is one of the I/O strobes and is driven low when the receiver is operating normally. When the receiver is in the error state and tracking is disabled, the error strobe is driven high. This can be caused by a fatal error or by an unusual receiver status indication that the user has promoted to be treated like a fatal error. Once on, the error status will remain high until the cause of the error is corrected and the receiver is reset. See also Section 3.3.1, Strobes on Page 44.7.4 RXSTATUSEVENT LogThe RXSTATUSEVENT log is used to output event messages as indicated in the RXSTATUS log.On start-up, the OEMV family receiver is set to log the RXSTATUSEVENTA log ONNEW on all ports. You can remove this message by using the UNLOG command.Refer to the RXSTATUSEVENT log in the OEMV Firmware Reference Manual for a more detailed description of this log.7.5 RXSTATUS Log7.5.1 Overview The Receiver Status log (RXSTATUS) provides information on the current system status and configuration in a series of hexadecimal words. The status word is the third field after the header, as shown in the example below. Figure 42: Location of Receiver Status Word<RXSTATUS COM1 0 92.0 UNKNOWN 0 154.604 005c0020 643c 1899< 00000000 4 < 005c0020 00000000 00000000 00000000 < 00000087 00000008 00000000 00000000 < 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 < 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 Receiver Status Word
120 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BChapter 7 Built-In Status Tests Each bit in the status word indicates the status of a specific condition or function of the receiver. If the status word is 00000000, the receiver is operating normally. The numbering of the bits is shown in Figure 43, Reading the Bits in the Receiver Status Word on Page 120 below. Figure 43: Reading the Bits in the Receiver Status WordIf the receiver status word indicates a problem, please also see Section 8.1, Examining the RXSTATUS Log on Page 126.7.5.2 Error WordThe error field contains a 32 bit word. Each bit in the word is used to indicate an error condition. Error conditions may result in damage to the hardware or erroneous data, so the receiver is put into an error state. If any bit in the error word is set, the receiver will set the error strobe line, flash the error code on the status LED, broadcast the RXSTATUSEVENT log on all ports (unless the user has unlogged it), idle all channels, turn off the antenna, and disable the RF hardware. The only way to get out of the error state is to reset the receiver.It is also possible to have status conditions trigger event messages to be generated by the receiver. Receiver Error words automatically generate event messages. These event messages are output in RXSTATUSEVENT logs (see also Section 7.5.6, Set and Clear Mask for all Status Code Arrays on Page 122). The error word is the first field after the log header in the RXSTATUS log, as shown in the example below, or the third from last field in the header of every log. Figure 44: Location of Receiver Error Word0 0 0 4 0 0 2 80000 0000 0000 0100 0000 0000 0010 1000Bit 0Bit 31<RXSTATUS COM1 0 92.0 UNKNOWN 0 154.604 005c0020 643c 1899< 00000000 4 < 005c0020 00000000 00000000 00000000 < 00000087 00000008 00000000 00000000 < 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 < 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 Receiver Error Word
Built-In Status Tests Chapter 7 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5B 121Here is another example of a receiver error word. The numbering of the bits is shown in Figure 45. Figure 45: Reading the Bits in the Receiver Error WordRefer to the RXSTATUS and the RXSTATUSEVENT logs in the OEMV Firmware Reference Manual for more detailed descriptions of these logs. If the receiver error word indicates an error, please also see Section 8.1, Table 23, Resolving a Receiver Error Word on Page 126.7.5.3 Status Code ArraysThere are 4 status code arrays – the receiver status word, the auxiliary 1 status, the auxiliary 2 status and the auxiliary 3 status. Each status code array consists of 4, 32 bit words (the status word, a priority mask, a set mask and a clear mask). The status word is similar to the error word, with each of the 32 bits indicating a condition. The mask words are used to modify the behavior caused by a change in one of the bits in the associated status words. Each bit in any of the masks operates on the bit in the same position in the status word. For example setting bit 3 in the priority mask changes the priority of bit 3 in the status word.7.5.4 Receiver Status CodeThe receiver status word is included in the header of all logs. It has 32 bits, which indicate certain receiver conditions. If any of these conditions occur, a bit in the status word is set. Unlike the error word bits the receiver will continue to operate, unless the priority mask for the bit has been set. The priority mask bit will change that of the receiver status word into an error bit. Anything that would result from an error bit becoming active would also occur if a receiver status and its associated priority mask bits are set.7.5.5 Auxiliary Status CodesThe auxiliary status codes are only seen in the RXSTATUS log. The three arrays representing the auxiliary status codes give indication about the receiver state for information only. The events represented by these bits typically do not cause degradation of the receiver performance. The priority mask for the auxiliary codes does not put the receiver into an error state. Setting a bit in the auxiliary priority mask results in the corresponding bit in the receiver status code to be set if any masked auxiliary bit is set. Bit 31 of the receiver status word indicates the condition of all masked bits in the auxiliary 1 status word. Likewise, bit 30 of the receiver status word corresponds to the auxiliary 2 status word, and bit 29 to the auxiliary 3 status word.Refer also to the RXSTATUS log in the OEMV Firmware Reference Manual for a more detailed description of this log.0 0 0 0 0 0 2 20000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0010 0010Bit 0Bit 15
122 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BChapter 7 Built-In Status Tests 7.5.6 Set and Clear Mask for all Status Code ArraysThe other two mask words in the status code arrays operate on the associated status word in the same way. These mask words are used to configure which bits in the status word will result in the broadcast of the RXSTATUSEVENT log. The set mask is used to turn logging on temporarily while the bit changes from the 0 to 1 state. The clear mask is used to turn logging on temporarily while the bit changes from a 1 to a 0 state. Note the error word does not have any associated mask words. Any bit set in the error word will result in the broadcast of the RXSTATUSEVENT log (unless unlogged).Refer also to the RXSTATUSEVENT log in the OEMV Firmware Reference Manual for a more detailed description.7.6 Status LEDs7.6.1 OEMV CardsThe diagnostic LED provided on the OEMV family cards blinks green on and off at approximately 1 Hz to indicate normal operation.Error bits and status bits that have been priority masked, as errors, will cause the LED to flash a code in a binary sequence. The binary sequence will be a 6 flash (0.5 second on and 0.25 second off per flash) sequence followed by a 1 second delay. The sequence will repeat indefinitely. If there is more than one error or status present, the lowest number will be output. The codes are ordered to have the highest priority condition output first.The first flash in the 6 flash sequence indicates if the code that follows is an error bit or a status bit. Error bits will flash red and status bits will flash yellow. The next 5 flashes will be the binary number of the code (most significant bit first). A red flash indicates a one and a yellow flash indicates a zero. For example, for an error bit 6, the binary number is 00110 so the output sequence would be:followed by a 1 second delay. The sequence repeats indefinitely until the receiver is reset.In the example on Page 123, the first flash in the sequence is red, which means that a bit is set in the receiver error word. The next five flashes give a binary value of 00111. Converting this value to decimal results in a value of 7. Therefore, bit 7 of the receiver error word is set, indicating there is a problem with the supply voltage of the receiver’s power circuitry.0 0.5 0.75 1.25 1.50 2.0 2.25 2.75 3.0 3.5 3.75 4.25 5.25Red Yellow Yellow Red Red Yellow

186 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BAppendix B Electrostatic Discharge Control (ESD) PracticesB.1 OverviewStatic electricity is electrical charge stored in an electromagnetic field or on an insulating body. This charge can flow as soon as a low-impedance path to ground is established. Static-sensitive units can be permanently damaged by static discharge potentials of as little as 40 volts. Charges carried by the human body, which can be thousands of times higher than this 40 V threshold, can accumulate through as simple a mechanism as walking across non-conducting floor coverings such as carpet or tile. These charges may be stored on clothing, especially when the ambient air is dry, through friction between the body and/or various clothing layers. Synthetic materials accumulate higher charges than natural fibers. Electrostatic voltage levels on insulators may be very high, in the order of thousands of volts.Various electrical and electronic components are vulnerable to electrostatic discharge (ESD). These include discrete components, hybrid devices, integrated circuits (ICs), and printed circuit boards (PCBs) assembled with these devices.B.2 Handling ESD-Sensitive DevicesESD-sensitive devices must only be handled in static-controlled locations. Some recommendations for such handling practices follow:• Handling areas must be equipped with a grounded table, floor mats, and wrist strap.• A relative humidity level must be maintained between 20% and 80% non-condensing.• No ESD-sensitive board or component should be removed from its protective package, except in a static-controlled location.• A static-controlled environment and correct static-control procedures are required at both repair stations and maintenance areas.• ESD-sensitive devices must be handled only after personnel have grounded themselves via wrist straps and mats.• Boards or components should never come in contact with clothing, because normal grounding cannot dissipate static charges on fabrics.• A circuit board must be placed into a static shielding bag or clamshell before being removed from the work location and must remain in the clamshell until it arrives at a static-controlled repair/test center.• Circuit boards must not be changed or moved needlessly. Handles may be provided on circuit boards for use in their removal and replacement; care should be taken to avoid contact with the connectors and components.• On-site repair of ESD-sensitive equipment should not be undertaken except to restore service in an emergency where spare boards are not available. Under these circumstances repair station techniques must be observed. Under normal circumstances a faulty or suspect circuit board must be sent to a repair center having complete facilities, or to the manufacturer for exchange or repair.
Electrostatic Discharge Control (ESD) Practices Appendix BOEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5B 187• Where protective measures have not been installed, a suitable alternative would be the use of a Portable Field Service Grounding Kit (for example, 3M Kit #8501 or #8507). This consists of a portable mat and wrist strap which must be attached to a suitable ground.• A circuit board in a static-shielding bag or clamshell may be shipped or stored in a cardboard carton, but the carton must not enter a static-controlled area such as a grounded or dissipative bench top or repair zone. Do not place anything else inside the bag (for example, repair tags).• Treat all PCBs and components as ESD sensitive. Assume that you will damage the PCB or component if you are not ESD conscious.• Do not use torn or punctured static-shielding bags. A wire tag protruding through the bag could act as a "lightning rod", funneling the entire charge into the components inside the bag.• Do not allow chargeable plastics, such as binders, within 0.6 m of unshielded PCBs.• Do not allow a PCB to come within 0.3 m of a computer monitor.B.3 Prime Static AccumulatorsTable 44 provides some background information on static-accumulating materials.

188 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BAppendix B Electrostatic Discharge Control (ESD) PracticesB.4 Handling Printed Circuit BoardsESD damage to unprotected sensitive devices may occur at any time. ESD events can occur far below the threshold of human sensitivity. Follow this sequence when it becomes necessary to install or remove a circuit board:1. After you are connected to the grounded wrist strap, remove the circuit board from the frame and place it on a static-controlled surface (grounded floor or table mat).2. Remove the replacement circuit board from the static-shielding bag or clamshell and insert it into the equipment.3. Place the original board into the shielding bag or clamshell and seal it with a label.4. Do not put repair tags inside the shielding bag or clamshell.5. Disconnect the wrist strap.
OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5B 189Appendix C Ethernet ConfigurationAt power-up, the DL-V3 configures the COM3 multiplexer to switch to the Bluetooth device by default. In order to use the Ethernet device, the multiplexer must be switched to use Ethernet. To do this, follow one of the two methods outlined in this appendix. C.1 Physical Set-UpBelow are the configuration methods described in this appendix and the hardware you require to set them up:• Configuration Via Network Cable- DL-V3 with power cable and serial communications cable- User-supplied laptop with an available Ethernet port, serial port (or USB port with NovAtel serial to USB drivers) and the Lantronix software, described below, installed- CAT5 Ethernet cross-over cable (or use a switch with a straight through Ethernet cable)• Configuration Via Serial and Network Parameters- DL-V3 with power cable- User-supplied laptop with the Lantronix software, described below, installed- Serial null-modem cable to connect from the laptop and switch between COM1 and COM2 on the DL-V3. You can avoid switching if you have two serial connections on your laptop and two null-modem cables. Also, if your laptop has only USB connectors, you need a USB to serial adaptor between the null-modem cable and the laptop’s USB connector.- CAT5 Ethernet cross-over cable (or use a switch with a straight through Ethernet cable)In both cases, first install the DeviceInstaller and Com Port Redirector utilities programs onto the laptop you intend to use with your DL-V3 from the Lantronix website at: http://www.lantronix.com/device-networking/utilities-tools/.Figure 71, CAT5 Ethernet Cable Connection on Page 190 shows the two methods of physically providing an Ethernet connection between your laptop and DL-V3. The top shows a direct connection using a CAT5 Ethernet cross-over cable and the bottom shows two straight-through CAT5 Ethernet cables with a DSS-5+ port switch in between them.
190 OEMV Family Installation and Operation User Manual Rev 5BAppendix C Ethernet Configuration Figure 71: CAT5 Ethernet Cable ConnectionReference Description1 User-supplied laptop computer with Ethernet connector2 DL-V3 (powered)3 User-supplied CAT5 Ethernet cross-over cable4 User-supplied DSS-5+ Port Switch5 User-supplied CAT5 Ethernet straight-through cablesC.2 Configuration OverviewBoth configuration methods are used to provide the DL-V3 with a static Internet Protocol (IP) address to be used in your personal network. To do this, your Network Administrator must assign a static IP address to you so that every time there is a receiver start-up, it has the same IP address. Otherwise, the Ethernet module in the DL-V3 is DHCP-enabled by default where DHCP is an acronym for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This means that normally the Ethernet device issues a new IP address every time the receiver is started up. A static IP aids with remote work especially.C.3 Configuration Via Network CableTo physically connect the DL-V3 to Ethernet, follow these steps:1. Connect a CAT5 cross-over cable to a laptop with a free Ethernet port2. Connect the other end of the CAT5 crossover cable to the DL-V3’s Ethernet port12123455

Connect the power cable to the DL-V3 and power-up the unit C.3.1 Enable Ethernet on DL-V3 ReceiverFrom the laptop, connect the DL-V3 to a serial, or USB, cable. Open communication with the receiver using HyperTerminal or CDU. Issue the following command: APPCONTROL BLUETOOTH 1Restart your laptop. COM3 switches from the Bluetooth to the Ethernet device in the DL-V3. You can see this because the Ethernet LED, labelled , on the DL-V3 now glows orange.C.3.2 Windows XP Network SettingsIf using TCP/IP networking on a Windows XP-based PC or laptop, Windows may be configured to obtain an IP address automatically. However, an alternate IP must be configured manually rather than having an automatically generated private IP address. To do this, follow these steps:1.

Also, the default serial settings are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no stop bits, 1 parity bit, and no flow control. Serial Command Mode is an alternative method to configure the Ethernet network and serial settings. This method is complicated by the fact that there is no direct access to the Ethernet device because it is an embedded part connected internally to COM3. The following paragraphs describe the detailed process of configuring the Ethernet via the Serial Command Mode.C.4.1 Physical ConnectionsTo physically connect the Ethernet to the DL-V3, follow these steps:1. Connect a serial null-modem cable from your Laptop to the DL-V3 COM1 port2. Connect a serial null-modem cable from your Laptop to the DL-V3 COM2 port1 serial null-modem cable may be connected from the laptop and switch between COM1 and COM2 on the DL-V3. You can avoid switching if you have two serial connections on your laptop and two null-modem cables. Also, if your laptop has only USB connectors, you need a USB to serial adaptor between the null-modem cable and the laptop’s USB connector.3. Connect the power cable to DL-V3 power port, power and switch on the unit with the button on its front.C.4.2 PC SoftwareHyperTerminal communications software is recommended for COM1 communications to the DL-V3. From Window’s Start menu, select Programs | Accessories | Communications | Hyperterminal. The
