Answers:
1. What is the GPS Test Software?
GPSTest software is an excellent tool for testing and evaluating GPS receivers/modules based on NMEA 0183 Standard. It helps you understand and estimate the quality, stability and accuracy of GPS receivers or modules. It can also help you compare the quality and performances of different GPS receivers and models by testing them at the same time and conditions.
2. What is the benefits of GPSTest?
If you are vendor, GPSTest can help you test and evaluate the quality of your GPS products. It can help you improve product performance by identifying some reasons that may cause a problem.
If you are a user, GPSTest can help you find out the best GPS receiver or module that fits your project requirements. It helps you make a right decision.
3. What can I do with GPSTest?
- Log and track data from NEMA ports of multiple GPS receivers at the same time.
- Monitor and compare navigation information, satellites in view, signal quality etc. real time for multiple GPS receivers.
- Test cold start time and the times to acquire one, two, three and five satellites fixes.
- Positioning accuracy analysis based on different probability confidence intervals.
- Outliers or jump points analysis based on different error distances.
- Graphic presentation of the position errors and error distributions.
- Export data to a Excel for convenient view, further analysis and report.
- Show up roads or streets tracking test results on the Microsoft MapPoint.
- Generate test and evaluation report in Microsoft Word. You can easily add comments to the report, save and print it.
4. What do I need to use GPSTest?
- A PC with the Operating System: Microsoft Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP.
- Multiple Serial COM Ports are required for tracking multiple GPS receivers at the same time. You can use USB ports to log data from USB GPS receivers.
- Enough hard disk space: Depends on the log time of NEMA data; 100 MG are recommended for 24 hours tracking.
- Microsoft Office 2000 or later version and Microsoft Mappoint 2002 or later version are required for test reports and mapping data.
5. How many GPS receivers can be logged at the same time?
You can log GPS data from 4 receivers or modules at the same time.
