Streamlined cable (NovAtel part number 01018526) with
two DB-9 connectors, and exposed tinned wires for
power, ground and ER. This cable provides connection
for power, two serial ports, and emulated radar. It has
been designed for permanent installation. The cable
material is capable of withstanding a wide temperature
range and is not damaged by exposure to chemicals.
4. Install the PC Utilities by advancing through the steps
4. Provide power to the SMART-MR10, as follows.
Connect the red wire of the cable (PWR+, connector pin 1)
to the positive side of a 12 or 24V vehicular power circuit (or
equivalent) that is protected by a 5A fuse. NovAtel
recommends an automotive blade-type fuse, rated for 5A
and with an operating voltage of more than 36V
(recommended fuse part numbers are in the SMART-MR10/

USING NOVATEL CONNECT
ENTERING COMMANDS
NMEA LOGS
Connect provides access to key information about your receiver
and its position. The information is displayed in windows
accessed from the View menu. For example, select Position
Window from the View menu to display the position solution of
the receiver. To show details of the GNSS and geostationary
(SBAS) satellites being tracked, select the Tracking Status
Window from the View menu. Select Help from the main menu
for more details on Connect, its windows and features.
The SMART-MR10 uses a comprehensive command interface.
Commands can be sent to the receiver using the Console
window in Connect, which is opened from the View menu. Enter
commands in the text box at the bottom of the Console window.
To configure the receiver output through the command line:
1. Ensure the communication port is configured.
2. Select and configure the NMEA string that you want to
output through COM port 2. For example, to log gpgga
(position system fix data and undulation) at 2 Hz, enter the
following:
log com2 gpgga ontime 0.5
ENABLING SBAS POSITIONING
The OEMV Family Quick Reference Guide, provided on the CD
and available on the NovAtel website, provides comprehensive
information about available commands. The SMART-MR10/15
User Manual provides information on a subset of these
commands; in particular, the ones commonly used on the
SMART-MR10.
This positioning mode is enabled using the SBASCONTROL
command, as follows:
10. Click the Open button to open SMART-MR10
communications.
sbascontrol enable auto
Connect establishes the communication session with the
receiver and displays the progress. Once connected, the
progress box disappears and several windows open, including
the Console window. Connect is now ready for use to view
status information, enter commands or log data.
Once enabled, the Solution type field shown in the Connect
Position window changes from Single to SBAS, and you may
see SBAS satellites in the Constellation window. SMART-MR10
will track available SBAS satellites, including WAAS, EGNOS
and other SBAS systems.
SAVECONFIG COMMAND
If you change the configuration of a function and want to save
the new settings for your next session, use the SAVECONFIG
command.
DETERMINING WHEN THE POSITION IS VALID
When the receiver has a valid position, the Solution Status field
in the Connect Position window shows Computed:
When using Connect to configure your receiver, ensure all
of the graphical windows are closed before you issue the
SAVECONFIG command.
CONFIGURING THE COMMUNICATION PORT
ENABLING GL1DE®
Use the COM command to configure the communication port
using the command line. For example, to set COM port 2 to
9600 bps, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no handshaking, echo
off, and break detection, enter the following:
To enable GL1DE, enter the following commands:
pdpfilter enable
pdpmode relative auto
com com2 9600 n 8 1 n off on

To log data, use the LOG command. For example, to log the
pseudorange position to COM 2 every 30 seconds, enter the
following:
ENABLING Bluetooth WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY
EMULATED RADAR (ER)
QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
Bluetooth wireless technology is configured on the
SMART-MR10 COM3 internal port and is enabled by default.
The SMART-MR10 provides an emulated ground speed RADAR
pulse output. The enclosure outputs ER via the bare wire
for the pin-out details of this cable. Also see Appendix B.5
RADARCFG of the SMART-MR10/15 User Manual.
If you have any questions or comments regarding your
SMART-MR10 please contact NovAtel using one of these
methods:
log com2 psrposb ontime 30
To disable Bluetooth wireless technology:
When requesting logs, you can request the output data in three
formats:

To enable Bluetooth wireless technology:
ER is enabled by default. To disable ER, use the RADARCFG
command as follows:

The following command enables ER, sets frequency step to
36.11 Hz/kph, update rate to 1 Hz and no smoothing:
Abbreviated ASCII is the best format to use when you want to
work with the receiver directly and review individual log contents
visually.
radarcfg enable 36.11 1 1 2
USING THE CAN BUS
To enable ER, enter the following command:
Refer to the SMART-MR10/15 User Manual (OM-20000130) or
the OEMV Family Firmware Reference Manual (OM-20000094)
for information on the LOG command, specifying the output
format, and the detailed contents of each log.
The CAN Bus is a serial bus that provides services for
processes, data and network management. CAN Bus capability
is available through the SMART-MR10 evaluation cable, as
radarcfg enable
The ER output pulse high level is equal to the vehicle's supply
voltage minus 0.5V minimum and the low level is 0.5V
maximum. Note this is not a logic level output. The rise and fall
time is less than 1 ms. The ER outputs reference battery GND
when the output is logic low. It outputs logic low until the vehicle
speed is greater than 1 km/hr. It provides an output frequency
that represents 36.11 Hz/km/hr (default value) with an effective
range from 1 km/hr to 55 km/hr, and uses 2D velocity for near-
horizontal applications. The default value can be changed to
26.11 or 28.12 Hz/km/hr using the RADARCFG command.
If you prefer, NovAtel Connect provides a graphical interface for
configuring data logging. Select Logging Control Window from
the Tools menu. In the Logging Control window, you can select
which logs to capture and choose the ports to which you want
the data sent. You can also specify a file in which to save the
data.
The CAN module is activated by entering the command
SETCANNAME 305. If this is followed by entering the
SAVECONFIG command, the CAN module is activated
immediately on all subsequent start-ups. The module supports
NMEA 2000 Parameter Group Message (PGN): PGN 129029
GNSSPositionData, PGN 129025 GNSSPositionRapidUpdate,
and PGN 129026 COGandSOGRapidUpdate.
LOGGING DATA
An extensive set of logs has been created to capture the data
your SMART-MR10 receives and processes. These logs can be
directed to a SMART-MR10 port (COM1, COM2 or AUX) and
can be automatically generated when new or changed data
becomes available, or at regular intervals. The available logs are
listed in the OEMV Family Quick Reference Guide.
