Basic Programming
The 3DM- GX5- 35 is designed to stream GNSS and IMU data packets over a common interface as
efficiently as possible. To this end, programming the device consists of a configuration stage where the
data messages and data rates are configured. The configuration stage is followed by a data streaming
stage where the program starts the incoming data packet stream.
In this section there is an overview of the packet, an overview of command and reply packets, an overview
of how an incoming data packet is constructed, and then an example setup command sequence that can
be used directly with the 3DM- GX5- 35 either through a COM utility or as a template for software
development.
