QUICK START GUIDE
MOTOROLA Oncore™ GT
GPS Module for Embedded OEM

A rugged and reliable eight-channel receiver, the Oncore™ GT provides position and velocity
data anywhere on Earth, at any time of day, in any weather. It also provides accurate time. A
one-pulse-per-second signal output is synchronized to UTC within a nominal accuracy of five
hundred nanoseconds—ideal for multi-site synchronization and time-distribution applications.

Features

• 8-channel parallel receiver, 8 simul

Refer to Figure 2 for the following instructions. 1. Attach the desired antenna connector (typically SMB or BNC female) to one end of the RG-174. 2. On the end of the cable that will connect to the Oncore™ GPS receiver, remove the outside jacket to approximately 0.75” (2 cm) from the end. Carefully separate the braid of the RG-174 to one side. 3. Remove 1/16” (1.5mm) of the insulator from the center conductor and tin with solder. 4. Twist the braid strands together and cover with shrink

ANTENNA Inexpensive GPS antennas are often available at www.ebay.com for a cost $10.00-$30.00 Like all things on Ebay, your mileage may vary. Be certain the antenna is ACTIVE (versus passive) and designed to be powered by 5 volts DC. Figure 3 - Active Antenna Obtained from EBAY GETTING STARTED - SUGGESTED ONCORE™ RS232 INTERFACE The schematic provided with this guide presents a simple RS-232 interface for use with the Oncore™ GT GPS receiver and a PC or Laptop. This circuit is

4. Verify voltage levels on all pins of the 10-pin connector prior to connecting the Oncore™ to the RS-232 interface! See figure 1 for pin orientation. 5. Remove power and connect the RS-232 interface to the Oncore™ receiver. Connect an appropriate preamplified GPS antenna to the receiver. IMPORTANT NOTE: Avoid placing the GPS antenna in close proximity to a laptop or PC. This can cause interference with proper signal reception! 6. Apply power to the interface and use VisualGPS soft
