Step-by-Step: First Time Running the SL869 Evaluation Board 4.1. Step-by-Step: First Time Connection 2013-04-18 1. Before connecting the evaluation board, ensure that the USB drivers are installed. 2. Ensure that jumpers are installed on J2, J6, and J7. 3. Ensure that there are no jumpers installed on J3 and J4. 4. Connect the provided Active Antenna to the SMA connector. 5. As soon as the evaluation board is connected to the PC, it will be detected and installed. Figure 3 USB installation, select "Continue Anyway" to proceed 6. After the evaluation board has been installed, check the “Device Manager” window for the evaluation board COM port number. This information is needed for use with the GPS tools. 7. Turn the switch vertically UP to turn On the EVK. 8. Refer to Chapter 5 for using the EVK with software. NOTE: On some occasions, Windows will install a “Microsoft Serial BallPoint mouse after connecting the USB. Uninstall the Microsoft Serial BallPoint mouse if Windows mistakenly installs it.

For simplicity in this document, the interface described in the examples is in UART mode. 7.1. Commands A command is a defined Data Packet sent from a host processor to the GPS-Baseband Controller. The regular structure of the command is command-ID[,] Parameters, if present, are delimited by “,” characters as per the NMEA protocol. All SL869 commands are proprietary and therefore all command-ID’s begin with the “$PSTM” character sequence. The user interaction with the EVK can be achieved through the use of a PC terminal emulator program that is connected to the appropriate COM port with settings of:  9600 Baud  0 Parity Bits  1 Stop Bit  8 Data Bit 7.2. Messages Description The table below summarizes the periodic output messages of the SL869: Message ID Description $GPGGA NMEA: Global Position System fix data $GNGSA NMEA: GNSS Dilution of Precision (DOP) and active satellites $--GSV NMEA: GNSS satellites in view. “GP” talker ID reports GPS, “GL” talker ID reports GLONASS satellites. $GPRMC NMEA: Recommended minimum specific GNSS data All messages are output once per second. There are multiple GSA and GSV messages output each second. Reproduction forbidden without written authorization from Telit Communications S.p.A. - All Rights Reserved.
