Preface
Welcome to the RX 400p User Guide and congratulations on purchasing this high-
performance positioning tool. This is the third generation all-in-one receiver, which
incorporates a number of improvements over the previous generation including
support of the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) and other Space Based
Augmentation Systems (SBAS), and an improved menu system. The purpose of this
manual is to familiarize you with the proper installation, configuration, and operation
of your new receiver.
The RX 400p is a complete DGPS receiver, possessing two separate, internal
receivers that provide the versatility of this system. Within the RX 400p, MID-
TECH has integrated the MID-TECH SLX receiver, a tri-purpose GPS / WAAS / L-
band receiver, and the MID-TECH SBX, a high performance DGPS beacon receiver.
You may use any of the three internal differential correction services, depending
which service is available. The beacon receiver obtains free DGPS beacon signals
where available, the WAAS demodulator decodes correction data from the Wide
Area Augmentation System, and the L-band satellite differential receiver obtains
corrections from the OmniSTAR Worldwide DGPS service.
In addition to real-time DGPS, the RX 400p also supports post-processing. You may
configure the RX 400p for output of binary measurement data for logging with the
use of an external device. A conversion utility is available from MID-TECH for
translation from the proprietary binary format into the Receiver Independent
Exchange format (RINEX). Consult Appendix E for information on post processing
and RINEX.
MID-TECH has designed this GPS product to function in a wide array of
applications and environments. Compact, lightweight, yet rugged, the RX 400p will
provide you with years of reliable operation.
