PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The SynPaQ/E is a self contained GPS Sensor comprising a GPS
receiver and required support electronics in a robust, IP68 rated
extruded aluminum housing. The support electronics include ESD
tolerant RS-232 compatible communications links, input power
regulation and filtering, and Power/Data display LEDs.

The GPS receiver can be selected from several types depending on
the users requirements. This document does not cover the
differences in the available receivers; it is only intended as a User
Guide for the SynPaQ/E regardless of receiver installed.

The “Standard” SynPaQ/E uses a water resistant circular connector
for all I/O functions and a TNC connector for the antenna. The
circular connector is an IP68 rated SwitchCraft EN3.

The “XTS” version of the SynPaQ/E, first shipped in 2002, emulates
the non-standard DB-9 electrical interface of the original Motorola
“XT” Oncore
between 1994 and 2002. The special DB-9 I/O wiring has been
retained for backward compatibility for Motorola LMPS and many
other customers. This version of the SynPaQ/E uses a BNC for the
GPS antenna connector. With the increased convenience of using a
DB-9 connector, there is a resultant drop in water and dust
resistance. Care should be taken when deciding where to mount the
unit.

The “USB” version provides for a connection where a DB9 UART
does not exist. The 1PPS output is provided by a SMA connector.
This version is also NOT as water resistant as the standard version
and care should be taken when deciding where to mount the unit.
