Utility Version 1.1


The GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100 is pre-set at the factory to work
with an Ag Leader yield monitor system. Other applications may
require special message settings, which can be changed with this
utility. Refer to the documentation for your software application and/or
hardware to determine its required baud rate, NMEA messages and Hz
output rate.


1.

Connect the GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100 to a computer using
either the Ag Leader GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100 Mobile
Logging or GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100 Auxiliary Power/Data
cable.


2.

Insert the Ag Leader SMS CD into the computer CD-ROM drive.


3.

The CD Menu will now appear. Click on "Browse CD," then the
“Misc Folder,” now the GPS 1100 folder will now appear.


4.

Click on the "Connect" button below, then select the COM port and
the baud rate for the computer that you are connected to. The
correct baud rate should be 4800 unless you have previously
changed it on the GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100.


5.

The Messages tab will now be displayed. Once you have specified
the desired settings, click the "Send Settings" button to send the
changes to the GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100.


6.

If you are going to be using the GPS 1100 for Direct Command
application, you will need to configure the GPS 1100 for a baud
rate of 19200, 4hz output rate

NOTE: The Messages tab does not display the current
configuration of the GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100, only the
setting options that are available and the recommended factory
defaults.


7.

The Serial Data tab will now appear and the selected NMEA
messages should now be scrolling down the screen as they are
output from the GPS1000/GPS1000+/GPS1100. Click pause to
stop the message sending for easier viewing.


8.

Click on Exit to finish.
