Tro GPS Simulator
The Tro GPS Simulator provides a complete suite for
all your GPS simulating needs and more. The Tro GPS
Simulator uses the international standardized protocol
NMEA-0183 for GPS (Global
Positioning System) data exchange. This standard is
specified by the NMEA ( National Marine Electronics Association
)and contains mechanisms to exchange data in an
interoperable way.
The Tro GPS Simulator provides the simulation for GPS
Receiver on following interfaces:
1.Serial Port (RS232)
2.Network (TCP/IP)
These interfaces can be used at the same time. A Serial Port
only provides exclusive access while the Network interface
provides multithreaded access. That means Tro GPS Simulator
can be used as multiplexer.
It provides five input methods for GPS data:
1.None Input Mode
2.Map Input Mode
3.Manual Input Modes
4.Log files Playback Mode
5.Forwarded Input Mode
User can choose any one of five input options to specify
where the simulated positioning data comes from.
With the None Input method, it is possible to type
(or paste) raw NMEA Sentence or raw data that will be sent
to the output interface (s).
The Map Input method lets the user choose a position
visually from a map, which can be fetched from World Map.
With the Manual Input method, user can enter exact
position that will be sent to the output interface (s).
The Logfile Playback method is for those users who
have a recorded GPS logfile and want to use this as an input
for other device.
The Forwarded Input method works like a multiplexer
where the user can connect to a GPS Receiver over a Serial
Port or Network port. The data from this GPS Receiver
will be sent unchanged over the Output Interfaces.
GPS And there are Multiple Receiver modes are provided which
are used to display Received Data in various ways. These
are:
1.Separate Real Time (Parsed NMEA/RAW NMEA) Received Data
View
2.GPS Tracer for $GPGGA, $GPGLL, $GPRMC and $GPWPL NMEA
Sentences
3.Received Data display under GPS Simulator
4.Log Files for Sent, Received RAW Data and Received NMEA
Data
Apart from this, it provides lots of facilities like sending
data in loop in specified interval, sending NMEA Data from
log file on specified interval, data sending with CR, data
sending without CR, sending file etc. |
