GPS Expansion Pod
The GPS Expansion Pod integrates the Trimble Lassen
LP GPS receiver with the Field PC. The Field PC remains
fully rugged when the GPS Expansion Pod is attached.
With the Field PC and GPS Expansion Pod, you can collect
GPS positions using an appropriate Windows Mobile
application program. A compact 3.3 V active micropatch
antenna is mounted to the top of the Field PC to receive
the GPS signal. This document explains how to use the
GPS Expansion Pod.
The Lassen LP receiver is a high-performance, low power,
micro GPS receiver that supports both Trimble TSIP and
NMEA protocols with autonomous accuracy of 5–10
meters, or 2–5 meters after differential correction. The GPS
Expansion Pod is used in conjunction with the following
programs:
GIS/GPS programs for Windows Mobile 6 including
ESRI ArcPad™, TerraSync
®
, Starpal HGIS™, and
others.
Note: Differential correction is only available if you are
using ESRI ArcPad™ with GPS Correct and TerraSync
®
.
You must have the differential correction program for
your desktop PC.
Third party applications with the ability to read
NMEA strings.
