SiRF LP, HS Bluetooth GPS GPS-6031-X7 Operating Manual Rikaline
1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The Rikaline GPS-6031-X7 Bluetooth GPS Receiver is a total solution GPS receiver with Bluetooth
wireless transmitting ability, designed based on SiRF Star II LP (Low Power) GPS architecture, enabled
with the most advanced HS (High Sensitivity) ability and CSR Bluetooth technology. This revolutionary
system provides you unbelievable positioning sensitivity allowing you to have easy position fix in urban canyon
conditions. You may use this device for strict needs of positioning applications such as car navigation, mapping,
surveying, security, agriculture and so on. Only clear view of sky is necessary to the unit.
The GPS-6031-X7 communicates with other electronic utilities via wireless Bluetooth technology and saves
critical satellite data by built–in backup memory. With low power consumption, the GPS-6031-X7 tracks up to
12 satellites at a time, re-acquires satellite signals in 100 ms and updates position data every second.
1.2 Features
The GPS-6031-X7 provides a host of features that make it easy for integration and use.
1. Wireless transmitting positioning status up to 10 meters.
2. SiRF Star II chipset with embedded ARM7TDMI CPU available for customized applications in firmware.
3. High sensitivity receiver tracks up to 12 satellites while providing first fast fix and low power consumption.
4. Differential capability utilizes real-time RTCM corrections producing 1-5 meter position accuracy.
5. Advanced design ideal for applications with minimal space.
6. A rechargeable battery sustains GPS internal clock and memory. It is recharged during normal operation.
7. User initialization is not required.
8. Dual communication channels and user selectable baud rates allow maximum interface capability and
flexibility.
9. FLASH based program memory: New software revisions upgradeable both for GPS and Bluetooth.
10. LED display status: The LED provides users visible operating status for Recharging, Battery power lever,
Bluetooth and GPS. No more extra device needed.

2. Operational characteristics
2.1 Initialization
Once you insert the battery into the housing, the GPS-6031-X7 is in standby mode and ready to work for
you. When you activate the Bluetooth function in your machine (PDA or PC) and get pairing with PGS-6031-X7,
you may start GPS function. As soon as the initial self-test is complete, the GPS-6031-X7 begins the process of
satellite acquisition and tracking automatically. Under normal circumstances, it takes approximately 90 seconds
to achieve a position fix at the first time, 45 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 GPS-6031-X7 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 GPS-6031-X7 Auto-locate feature is
capable of automatically determining a navigation solution without intervention from the host system. However,
acquisition performance can be improved when the host system initializes the GPS-6031-X7 in the following
situation:
2.2 Navigation
After the acquisition process is complete, the GPS-6031-X7 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
The GPS-6031-X7 sets the default of auto-searching for real-time differential corrections in RTCM SC-104
standard format, with the message types 1, 5, or 9. It accomplishes the satellite data to generate a differential
(DGPS) solution. The host system, at its option, may also command the GPS-6031-X7 to output a position
whenever a differential solution is available.
