LED Status
On (Continuous) Off Off The receiver is turned on, but not tracking satellites.
On (Continuous) Off or blinking (receiving corrections) Blinking
at 5 Hz for a short while Occurs after power boot sequence when the receiver is tracking less than five satellites and searching for more satellites.
On (Continuous) Off Blinking
at 1 Hz The receiver is tracking satellites on the position antenna only. The vector antenna is not tracking.
On (Continuous) Blinking at 1 Hz Blinking
at 1 Hz The receiver is tracking satellites on the position antenna and receiving incoming corrections.
On (Continuous) Blinking at 1 Hz Off The receiver is receiving incoming corrections, but not tracking satellites on the antenna.
On (Continuous) Blinking at 1 Hz On
(Continuous) The receiver is in Boot Monitor Mode. Use the WinFlash utility to reload application firmware onto the board. For more information contact Technical Support. Interface Module
The interface module performs the following functions:
Receives GNSS correction data from the base station via the Ethernet radio
Receives position data from the GPS satellite receiver
Calculates local positions and transmits the positions to the displayVIMS 3G
The VIMS 3G module that is standard on certain machines performs the following functions:
Receives GNSS correction data from the Ethernet radio
Receives position data from the GPS satellite
Calculates local positions and transmits the positions to the display.
Sends machine health data to Cat MineStar office
Provides machine parameters to Fleet onboardAdditional Hardware
Additional Fleet onboard architecture components include the following components:
Wiring harnesses to connect power and the main hardware components
Miscellaneous components
Service connections
Satellite receiver reference stationWiring Harness
The on-board components are connected with numerous wiring harnesses. The different harnesses connect the on-board radio, power, display, GPS satellite receiver, interface module, or VIMS 3G.Miscellaneous Components
The following miscellaneous components are used with the system:Ethernet switch - This switch is supplied by the customer. The switch provides network connectivity and is used to connect the broadband radio, display, and interface module. (customer supplied)Broadband radio - This radio is an Internet Protocol (IP) based radio to allow the communication with the wireless network. (customer supplied)Soft LOADS Function
This function is a Command for Hauling function for Aux vehicles only.This function provides a user interface for Auto Zone System Check which enables the operator to send/cancel a request for Auto Zone system check.This feature requires additional configuration keys and should be implemented only after instruction from Command for Health engineering.Service Connections
The following components have service connections:
Interface module
GPS satellite receiver
Monitor displayNote: The Low Precision GPS satellite receiver cannot be serviced, the software and firmware are installed at the factory.The service connections are used to update software and firmware. The service connections are typically installed in a place that allows for easy access.
