IS GPX-1

The IMX can be configured for use with the Inertial Sense GPX-1 multi-band GNSS receivers. This can be done using either the EvalTool GPS Setting tab or the IMX DID_FLASH_CONFIG.ioConfig and DID_FLASH_CONFIG.RTKCfgBits fields.

GPS Ports Value
GPS Source serial 0, serial 1, or serial 2
GPS Type GPX-1
GPS1 Timepulse Disable or IMX pin connected to GPX-1
RTK Rover Value
GPS RTK Mode Position or Compass
RTK Base Value
Serial Port 0 (Single GNSS only) GPS1 - RTCM3
USB Port GPS1 - RTCM3

The following sections detail how to interface and configure the IMX for operation using the GPX-1. See RTK precision positioning and RTK compassing for RTK operation principles.

Typical Interface

The IMX will automatically configure the GPX-1 for communications.

Rugged-4 (Coming Soon)

The Rugged-4 INS contains the GPX-1 onboard supporting RTK positioning and compassing. GPS 1 and GPS 2 are connected to serial port 0 on the IMX-5.

The following is a list of the ZED-F9P GNSS receivers and compatible antenna(s).
