ZED-F9P GNSS Module Console Application

This is a console application that connects to the u-blox ZED-F9P Precision GNSS Module via a serial interface. The application configures the module to operate as either an NTRIP Client or Station.

Features

• NTRIP Station Mode: When configured as a Station, the ZED-F9P enters survey mode. Upon completion, it transmits NTRIP data to the caster platform.
• NTRIP Client Mode: When configured as a Client, the application receives NTRIP data, converts it to an NMEA sequence, and combines it with additional GPS data from the u-blox device.

Compile for Linux/Raspberry Pi

To compile the application for Linux/Raspberry Pi environment (32/64-bit), use the following commands:

dotnet publish -c Release --self-contained -r linux-arm
dotnet publish -c Release --self-contained -r linux-arm64

Parameters

• -p, --com-port [Port]
  COM port (e.g., COM#, ttyACM#)
  Required

• -s, --ntrip-server [rtk2go.com]
  NTRIP caster server (default: rtk2go.com)

• -t, --ntrip-port [2101]
  NTRIP caster port (default: 2101)

• -m, --ntrip-mountpoint [MountPoint]
  NTRIP caster mountpoint

• -w, --ntrip-password [Password]
  NTRIP caster password

• -a, --rtcm-accuracy-req [3.000]
  Minimum RTCM accuracy to complete survey (in meters) (default: 3.000)

• -y, --rtcm-survey-time [60]
  Minimum time required to complete survey (in seconds) (default: 60)

• -o, --mode [Idle/Server/Client]
  Operation mode for the driver (default: Idle)

• -n, --nmea-socket [SocketPath]
  Path to the NMEA socket

• -r, --rtcm-socket [SocketPath]
  Path to the RTCM socket

• -x, --sync-socket [SocketPath]
  Path to the sync socket

• -d, --debug
  Enable debug mode (default: false)

Running the Application

Launching on Raspberry Pi

To run the application on Raspberry Pi, use the following commands:

/home/pi/gps-station/f9p/Zedf9p -p /dev/ttyACM0 -s [CASTER_SERVER(rtk2go.com)] -t 2101 -m [MOUNT_POINT] -w [PASSWORD] -a 3.000 -y 60 -o Server -n /tmp/zed-f9p-nmea-data.sock -r /tmp/zed-f9p-rtcm-data.sock -x /tmp/zed-f9p-sync-data.sock -d

or

/home/pi/gps-station/f9p/Zedf9p --com-port /dev/ttyACM0 --ntrip-server [CASTER_SERVER(rtk2go.com)] --ntrip-port 2101 --ntrip-mountpoint [MOUNT_POINT] --ntrip-password [PASSWORD] --rtcm-accuracy-req 3.000 --rtcm-survey-time 60 --mode Server --nmea-socket /tmp/zed-f9p-nmea-data.sock --rtcm-socket /tmp/zed-f9p-rtcm-data.sock --sync-socket /tmp/zed-f9p-sync-data.sock --debug
