Introduction

Z30 GNSS receiver is a new generation of portable high-precision GNSS receiver independently developed by ComNav Technology Ltd. With a multi-frequency OEM board that tracks full GNSS constellations, it can obtain accuracy positioning from sub-meter to centimeter.

Packing list

This section provides Z30 parts list, including basic supplies and customized kits based on your requirements.

Setting up the receiver

This chapter provides general information on appearance and power supply of Z30

Front panel

Receiver front panel contains three indicator light emitting diodes (LEDs). The indicator LEDs show the status of power, satellite tracking, and Internal GSM/ differential indicator.

Lower housing

Z30 Receiver lower housing contains a pole slot, and a Type-C port for charge/power supply with power bank.

Power supply
Z30 GNSS receiver supports internal batteries and supply with power bank.

General Operation

This chapter introduces all controls for the general operation, including button functions and all LED behaviors on the front panel.

Button functions

There are two buttons on the front panel, power button and SOS button.

• Power button:
  Press the power button for about 1 second to turn on the receiver; To turn off the receiver, long press the button for 3-4 seconds until all LEDs off.

• SOS button (Z30):
  long press the button for 5 seconds to ask help for remote server. To cancel the warning, long press the button for 5 seconds until warning off

LED behavior
The LEDs on the front panel indicate receiver working status. Generally, a lit or slowly flashing indicates normal operation, and an unlit LED indicates that no operation is occurring. The following figure and table define each possible LED state:

/transmit tracking to server
Satellite Tracking| Flash once per second| No satellite received
Flashes N times every 5 seconds| Received Nsatellite signals

Personnel tracking on NaviCloud/TCP server

This chapter will introduce the procedure of upload tracking to ComNav NaviCloud platform or third-party TCP server.

Preparation

There will need put a SIM card to Z30/M10/M10 mini, and configure by Navigate Master software to get correction service, and setup address of NaviCloud platform or third-party TCP server. After that, you can manage your device by the platform.

Navigate Master Software (based on Android)|
NaviCloud Platform (http://cloud.sinognss.com)|
SIM card (nano)|

Z30 Mini installation
Insert SIM card to Z30, then power on receiver.

Tip: For Z30, it integrated with internal antenna, so there is no need to connect to external
antenna.

Configuration by Navigate Master

Bluetooth Connection
Search the target receiver SN, and tap to connect.

Setup for 4G
Enable mobile network, input APN account, and check the 4G status.

Upload tracking to Navicloud
After Bluetooth connected, go DataTransfer, you can manage the data stream:

• NaviCloud/TCP setup:
  Input IP and port for NaviCloud/TCP server.

• Ntrip Client setup:
  
  

The Z30 will auto upload tracking by GPYBM, GPGGA and GPZDA message to NaviCloud.

Management in NaviCloud platform

This chapter will introduce the personnel security module in NaviCloud.

Register and Login
Enter NaviCloud address to browser: http://cloud.sinognss.com

• Register an account of NaviCloud.
  

Create or join a Company
After register and login, go to User center to check the user information. You will need join a company to get more access for different functions in NaviCloud.

Before you join a company, you need Register your own company, so that you can manage all your devices.

Fill in contents as below, and submit. After review by NaviCloud platform, you can manage your company.

Personnel Security module
On the main page, our products—personnel security.

There are three main functions, positioning, device and rescue.

Add device
In Device–Device list, add your Z30 information (the SN must be same with your device)

After you add the device succeed, you can check the device status.

Monitoring
Go monitoring, you can monitor all devices on map. And on bottom of right interface, it shows real time status for devices.

Tracking
NaviCloud support check tracking for 3 days. Select the device and date you want to check the tracking, you can also download the tracking as KML format, so that you can open with google map.

Electronic fence
With electronic fence, Z30 can remind the workers in real time with beep sound. The manager build the electronic fence and active it in NaviCloud, once the workers outside of the area, the Z30 will warning, and NaviCloud also will receive message.

Here shows how to build an electronic fence.
Click New, add the electronic by click on map. Note to click the first point on map again to complete the fence.

It will prompt below interface, give a name of the fence, and select a manager, active the device which need work in the fence.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:
This GNSS Receiver meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed toassure the safety of all persons regardless of age or health. FCC RF Exposure Information and Statement the SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. Device types: GNSS Receiver has also been tested against this SAR limit. This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with theback of the GNSS Receiver kept 0mm from the body. To maintain GNSS Receiver with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain an 0mm separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the GNSS Receiver . The use of belt clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
