Customer Support

NovAtel Knowledge Base

If you have a technical issue, visit the NovAtel Support page at www.novatel.com/support.Through the

Support page, you can contact Customer Support, find papers and tutorials or download current manuals and

the latest firmware.

Before Contacting Customer Support

Before you contact NovAtel Customer Support about a software problem, perform the following steps:

1. Log the following data to a file on your computer for 15 minutes:

RXSTATUSB once

RAWEPHEMB onchanged

RANGEB ontime 1

BESTPOSB ontime 1

RXCONFIGA once

VERSIONA once

2. Send the data file to NovAtel Customer Support: supp[email protected]

3. You can also issue a FRESET command to the receiver to clear any unknown settings.

If you are having a hardware problem, send a list of the troubleshooting steps taken and the results.

Contact Information

Log a support request with NovAtel Customer Support using one of the following methods:

International: +1-403-295-4900

The FRESET command will erase all user settings. You should know your configuration (by

requesting the RXCONFIGA log) and be able to reconfigure the receiver before you send the

FRESET command.

Foreword

Thank you for purchasing your NovAtel product. Your receiver includes companion documents to this manual

with information on the hardware operation. Afterwards, this document will be your primary reference guide

for commands and logs.

This manual describes each command and log the OEM6 family of receivers are capable of accepting or

generating. Sufficient detail is provided so you can understand the purpose, syntax and structure of each

command or log. You will also be able to communicate with the receiver, enabling you to effectively use and

write custom interfacing software for specific applications.
