1.0 Introduction
This document provides detailed guidelines for the operation and configuration of the Jupiter
30 GPS Module Development Kit. The AA003029 series of development kits assist in the
integration of the Jupiter 30 in a customer’s application, offering a simple and easy to use
platform for evaluation purposes.
It is recommended that the user pays particular attention to the configuration settings outlined
in section 3.0 prior to applying power and operating the development unit. For example, it is
important to understand and recognise the main functional switches and connector locations
accessible on the development unit’s front and rear panels. Following this information, simple
step-by-step guidelines are presented to ensure successful setup of the development unit.
In addition to hardware, the GPS Development Kit is supplied with SiRFDemo and SiRFflash
analysis software to allow communication with the Jupiter 30 GPS receiver through a serial port.
The Windows based software presents the receiver’s raw data in a geographical form, allowing
both detailed analysis and evaluation for both NMEA and SiRF Binary formats.
