Ruggedized Packaging
The VN-210 features precision milled, anodized aluminum enclosure designed to meet DO-160G standards. With dual I/O connectors, the VN-210 offers maximum flexibility for interfacing with external GNSS receivers and IMUs. The VN-210 has an input voltage of +12 to +36 VDC power supply over an RS-422 interface.
- Size: 56 x 56 x 31 mm
- Power Consumption: <2.5 watts
- Weight: 190 g
Enclosed in a precision anodized aluminum enclosure, the VN-210 offers additional protection of the internal MEMs sensors and electronics. The use of precision CNC milled aluminum parts ensures that the axis alignment provided by our factory calibration process is maintained during installation in its final configuration. Interfacing with the module is made through circular push-pull 10-pin connectors.
Tactical Grade IMU
Utilizing the latest advancements in Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, the VN-210 incorporates a suite of tactical-grade inertial sensors, including a 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis magnetometer. The VN-210 has been designed to achieve the highest performance possible by filtering out common error sources, such as sensitivity to supply voltage variations and temperature dependent hysteresis.
- < 1 °/hr in-run gyro stability
- < 10 µg in-run accel bias stability
- Ultra low noise accel and gyro
(0.04 mg/√Hz and 3.24 °/hr / √Hz) - High accel and gyro ranges
(±15 g and ±490 °/s)
High Sensitivity GNSS Receivers
The VN-210 incorporates two onboard, high-sensitivity, 72-channel, L1, GNSS receivers. An SMA connector is provided for connection to an external active GNSS antenna.
- Receiver type: 72-channel L1 GNSS
- Update Rate: 5 Hz
- Sensitivity: -159 dBm Tracking
- Time-to-First-Fix (Cold/Warm Start): 26 s
