The most accurate L1 single-frequency GPS receiver (30 cm RMS) available. 

Carrier phase capable of achieving 1 cm + 1 ppm accuracy with long occupation times.  
Recommended by CMT for use as a very reliable, high-precision base station. 

When compared to Trimble Pro XRS, it provides better accuracy and a more powerful software solution. Efficient and Precise.

With a long base line distance, such as 300 KILOMETERS, and one minute of static measurements, you can achieve 30 CENTIMETER accuracy. Very useful for asset surveys.

NMEA / Barcode Device Interface Capabilities
- Two 9-pin RS-232 serial ports, PC/AT pinout.
- The HP-GPS-L4 has two waterproof DB-9 RS-232 serial ports (COM1: and COM2:) for communication with your PC as well as a variety of additional input and output devices such as:

RTCM-104 Version 2.0: Real-time DGPS 
Simply plug your RTCM-104 source (i.e. FM pager, VHF radio, WADGPS) into the HP-GPS-L4's 9400 GPS Receiver. The HP-GPS-L4 will automatically detect and use the RTCM message. Since the HP-GPS-L4 has two DB-9 serial ports, you can use COM1: for RTCM and still have COM2: available for a barcode reader or NMEA output to another instrument. Don't worry if you lose the RTCM message while you are collecting data; the HP-GPS-L4 can be set to collect raw data and will automatically warn you so you can post-process your data.

Compatible with Coast Guard Beacon Receiver  
Obtain real-time differential correction with CMT's Coast Guard Beacon Receiver package.

NMEA 0183 output 
The HP-GPS-L4 will send out a NMEA 0183 message, at an interval specified by you to COM2:. This functionality allows the HP-GPS-L4 to output a GPS position to devices (i.e. digital cameras, sonar, etc.) that will accept a NMEA 0183 message. There is no need to change your instrument settings. The HP-GPS-L4 communications can be set to match your instrument. In the NMEA Setup screen, you have complete control over the baud rate and protocol settings.

Efficient Data Entry with Bar Code Input  
Attach a bar code scanner to the HP-GPS-L4 and you can quickly enter data. Bar code menus can be set up in such a way that you never need to touch the PC5L keyboard.

PC5L Data Collector

- Interfaces to laser rangefinders, barcode readers and various NMEA devices
- Canyon, Blockage and Clear modes for optimal tracking performance

Obtain 2 cm + 2 ppm accuracy with Carrier Phase
Using carrier phase, the HP-GPS-L4-CM can attain centimeter-level accuracy (2cm+2ppm) without separate data collectors, antennas or poles. Uploading and processing your carrier phase data in PC-GPS is virtually the same as processing C/A code data. Behind the scenes, however, is a robust carrier phase processor (CMTCM) that will provide either a FIXED solution (ambiguities fixed to integers) or FLOAT solution (ambiguities resolved to real values). The program will notify you of which type of solution was used. You may also process the same data with the standard C/A code processor by simply selecting the CMT Differential processor.

The HP-GPS-L4-CM offers the ultimate in flexibility, allowing you to do a variety of tasks. It can be used to record 1-3 meter data in addition to 2cm+2ppm data. For example, if you have a job that requires 2cm+2ppm accuracy on the property corners but only requires 1-3 meter accuracy on the streams running through the property, the HP-GPS-L4 would be the perfect tool. It can perform both tasks in the field without skipping a beat. In the past, you would have needed two different types of GPS receivers to do this job.

The HP-GPS-L4 package includes CMT's PC-GPS software for comprehensive GPS project management and mapping. PC-GPS provides functions for Mapping, Mission Planning, Batch Differential Correction, Static Point "Spread" analysis and Job Editing. The software also supports GIS layering, raster images (i.e. DOQs, DRGs, aerial photographs, satellite imagery), multimedia objects (OLE 2.0) and Microsoft^® ODBC.
