Chapter 2 ........................................................... Establish Communications

This chapter provides instructions on how to

Establish communications between a PC running StarUtil 3000 and one of the following:

The SF-3040 via USB-COM1 or COM2 (the SF-3040 supports RS-232 and Bluetooth

communications connections, but not Ethernet)

The SF-3050 via COM1- LAN or COM2- USB (the SF-3050 supports RS-232/RS-422,

USB 2.0, Ethernet, and Bluetooth communications connections).

Configure and establish Bluetooth communications

Configure and establish basic Ethernet communications (for the SF-3050 only)

Refer to the SF-3040 GNSS Product User Guide or to the SF-3050 GNSS Product User
Guide
for a list and descriptions of the supplied and optional data cables.

Establish Serial or USB Device Communications

USB Communications:

The USB driver (“navcomx1c45x3050.inf”) must be in the same folder as

StarUtil 3000 for the USB port to auto-recognize the SF-3040 or the SF-3050. Confirm that the
driver is in the StarUtil 3000 folder on the PC (see Figure 1).

In addition, ensure that these files are in the same folder:

Starutil-3k_v1_1_x.exe

96-312007-3001RevX_Sapphire TRM.pdf

96-310029-3001RevX_StarUtil 3000.pdf.

1. Click the Connections button to establish communications between the PC and the SF-3040

or the SF-3050 (see

Figure 29

). The Port Configuration dialog box opens (see

Figure 30

).

Ethernet Communications (SF-3050 only): Typically an RS-232 or USB connection is not
required prior to an Ethernet connection. This requirement exists only if any of the following
apply:

A previous Ethernet connection was not terminated properly via the

[ETHVCOM]ON,0.0.0.0,0 command. The [ETHVCOM]ON,0.0.0.0,0 command is
included in the default system setting.

To restore the SF-3050 to the

normal “listen for connection” mode so that an

Ethernet connection can be established, first establish an RS-232 or USB
connection. Then input [ETHVCOM]ON,0.0.0.0,0 via the Input Terminal window or
the appropriate user profile. The receiver will accept an Ethernet connection, or any
of these connection types: RS-232, USB, or Bluetooth.
