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
