3050G and SF-3050S. An optional upgrade allows 10, 25, 50, and 100Hz raw
measurement data via high speed ports.
For the SF-3050M, the raw measurement data is up to 25Hz in the standard
configuration, with the optional upgrade of 50 and 100Hz.
The PVT (Position, Velocity, & Time) data is output at up to 5Hz in the standard
configuration for the SF-3050G and SF-3050S. An optional upgrade allows 10, 25, 50,
and 100Hz position updates for highly dynamic applications.
For the SF-3050M, the PVT data is output at up to 25Hz in the standard configuration,
with the optional upgrade of 50 and 100Hz.
Internal Memory
See the Sapphire Technical Reference Manual and the StarUtil 3000 User Guide for
detailed instructions on utilizing the SF-3050 internal memory flash drive.
Control of Power Consumption
Power consumption may be immediately reduced on the SF-3050 by disabling signals, as
necessary, using the [TRACKINGMODE] command. Refer to the Sapphire Technical
Reference Manual for instructions on using this command.
Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) Support
When optioned as an RTK Base Station, the SF-3050 is capable of computing and
outputting RTK message streams in multiple formats and raw satellite measurement data
for post-processing simultaneously. All message formats can be output on one of the
high-speed USB or Ethernet ports, or messages can be distributed among any of the
eight user ports. The following is an example of a real world application:
Com 1: NavCom proprietary corrections (x5B, x5C, etc.); transmit via 900 or 400MHz
radios
Com 2: CMR+; transmit via 900 or 400MHz radios
USB: Command and Control (StarUtil Interface)
Bluetooth: Command and Control (StarUtil Interface)
Ethernet Port 1: Command and Control (StarUtil Interface)
Ethernet Port 2: RTCM v2.3
Ethernet Port 3: CMR+
Ethernet Port 4: RTCM v3.1 (can include Ntrip)
Refer to the Sapphire Technical Reference Manual, Appendix E, for RTK operation
information.
For IGS or similar permanent Base applications, NavCom offers a Choke Ring antenna
option to significantly reduce multipath errors on signal reception.
NTRIP Support
The generation of differential GPS correction data is usually done directly on the GPS
receiver of a reference station, but this data can also be derived from observations
