4. Troubleshooting RTK Connectivity
Common Fixes for NVS-RTK-M:
- Fix Type: If stuck in ‘Float’, ensure you have >8 satellites with SNR over 35dBHz.
- Baud Rate: Default for NVS modules is often 115200 bps. Check serial mismatch.
- Base Station: Ensure the RTCM 3.x stream is reaching Port 5101 for correction.
- Antenna: Must use an active Multi-Band GNSS antenna with 3-5V LNA power.
5. Glossary of NVS Proprietary Messages
For developers parsing raw NVS protocol streams via Port 5101:
$PNVG: Manufacturer specific NMEA header for NVS proprietary data.
BINR (Binary): The raw binary protocol used for high-update rates and raw measurements.
Message 0x4B: Navigation solution packet (Latitude, Longitude, Altitude).
