1. Introduction

1.1 Overview

GR-213U Smart GPS Receiver is a total solution GPS receiver, designed based on SiRF Star III

Architecture. This positioning application meets strict needs such as car navigation, mapping, surveying,

security, agriculture and so on. Only clear view of sky and certain power supply are necessary to the unit. It

communicates with other electronic utilities via compatible dual-channel through USB interface and saves

critical satellite data by built–in backup memory. With low power consumption, the GR-213U tracks up to 20

satellites at a time, re-acquires satellite signals in 100 ms and updates position data every second.

Trickle-Power allows the unit operates a fraction of the time and Push-to-Fix permits user to have a quick

position fix even though the receiver usually stays off.

1.2 Features

The GR-213U provides a host of features that make it easy for integration and use.

1. SiRFstarIII chipset with embedded ARM7TDMI CPU available for customized applications in firmware

2. High performance receiver tracks up to 20 satellites while providing first fast fix and low power

consumption.

3. Compact design ideal for applications with minimal space.

4. A rechargeable battery sustains internal clock and memory. The battery is recharged during normal

operation.

5. Users can adjust power-saving percentage (20%~80%), which achieves the best power efficiency.

6. User initialization is not required.

7. LED display status: The LED provides users visible positioning status. LED “ON” when power connected

and “BLINKING” when GR-213U got positioned.

8. Water proof design for industry standard.

2. Operational characteristics

2.1 Initialization

As soon as the initial self-test is complete, the GR-213U begins the process of satellite acquisition and tracking

automatically. Under normal circumstances, it takes approximately 42 seconds to achieve a position fix, 38

seconds if ephemeris data is known. After a position fix has been calculated, information about valid position,

velocity and time is transmitted over the output channel.

The GR-213U utilizes initial data, such as last stored position, date, time and satellite orbital data, to achieve

maximum acquisition performance. If significant inaccuracy exists in the initial data, or the orbital data is

obsolete, it may take more time to achieve a navigation solution. The GR-213U Auto-locate feature is capable

of automatically determining a navigation solution without intervention from the host system. However,

acquisition performance can be improved as the host system initializes the GR-213U in the following situation:

1) Moving further than 500 kilometers.

2) Failure of data storage due to the inactive internal memory battery.

2.2 Navigation

After the acquisition process is complete, the GR-213U sends valid navigation information over output channels.

These data include:

1) Latitude/longitude/altitude

2) Velocity

3) Date/time

4) Error estimates

5) Satellite and receiver status

1+5V

2D+

3D-

4 Ground

4. USB Driver

4.1 System Requirements

IBM, Pentium compatible PC and above.

16 MB memory and above

Windows 98/Me/2000/XP;

VGA Graphic Adapter.

4.2 Installation

1. Copy the ＜GR-213U->English->USB Driver->Win98_2k_XP＞USB-V2.1.0.exe from CD to hard disk.

2. Install USB-V2.1.0.exe.

3. Plug the GR-213U USB connector into the computer, the computer will search plug and play (P&P) device

automatically, and the installation of GR-213U USB Driver is complete.

4.3 Important

Verify the COM port # to start using your own navigating software.

1. Click <Start> menu, select <Settings>, then enter <Control Panel>.

2. After entering <Control Panel>, select <System>.

3. Select <Device Manager>.

4. Find the <Connect port> and check the Virtual COM Port, which was created by the USB driver,

Please note that the Virtual COM Port number might be different from every computer. Before using

navigating software, please confirm the COM Port numbers created by your computer and provided by

your navigation software. Otherwise, the navigating software won’t receive the satellite signal, because of

the un-match COM Port setting.

“#” sign represents the COM port number that being created by USB port. Usually the value will be

COM1 in normal navigation software. So the correct COM port of the navigation software needs to

be the same as the one in PC that created by USB port, and then the navigation is able to receive

correct data.

5. Software Interface

The GR-213U interface protocol is based on the National Marine Electronics Association's NMEA 0183 ASCⅡ

interface specification, which is defined in NMEA 0183, Version 2.2 and the Radio Technical Commission for

Maritime Services (RTCM Recommended Standards For Differential Navstar GPS Service, Version 2.1, RTCM

Special Committee No.104, Type 1,2,9) or WAAS (in USA area) or EGNOS (in European area).

5.1 NMEA Transmitted Messages

The GR-213U supported by SiRF Technology Inc. also outputs data in NMEA-0183 format as defined by the

National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA), Standard.

The default communication parameters for NMEA output are 4800 baud, 8 data bits, stop bit, and no parity.
