Factory Default Settings
COM1
Configuration - Data port
Rate – 19.2Kbps
Output of NMEA messages GGA & VTG scheduled @ 1Hz rate
Though the output rate defaults to 1Hz, the data output rate can be changed to On
Change. Messages GGA and VTG follow the navigation rate when set to On
Change.
This port is normally used to output data to other devices or machines that can make immediate
use of the precise positioning data available from the SF-2050. COM1 also serves as the DGPS
correction input/output port when NCT, CMR, or RTCM RTK correction services are in use.
COM2
Configuration - Control Port
Rate – 19.2Kbps
This port is normally used to input and output proprietary messages used for navigation and
receiver setup. The table below describes the default messages needed to best initiate
surveying with minimal effort. The user has full control over the utilized message types and their
associated rates via either StarUtil or a third party software/utility.
