NEMO INVEX SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The Nemo Invex system combines powerful intuitive software and a scalable military grade hardware platform to create superior drive-test systems for wireless networks. Quick and easy to deploy, Nemo Invex provides critical quality-of-service (QoS) measurements and a wide variety of quality-of-experience (QoE) service testing, including the latest voice and video quality measurement algorithms. Nemo Invex is flexible and scalable, capable of evolving as the network evolves providing the lowest effective total cost of ownership available.

The Nemo Outdoor software application is also widely known as a tool for network optimization. With other benchmarking tools QoS statistics can be collected but no actual reasons for possible issues, such as, low data rates can be seen without a cause identified. Often the network issue is interference and other benchmarking tools are collecting quality parameters but no real time analysis is performed. The Nemo solutions allow the user to activate different interference analysis measurements, such as, WCDMA pilot pollution, GSM co-channel/ adjacent channel interference and GSM/ WCDMA missing neighbor detection. These enhanced capabilities help to save time and money and provide additional value added information also to benchmarking campaigns. Furthermore, significant cost savings can be realized by bundling the data collection solution with a post-processing solution as Anite’s comprehensive post-processing solution, Nemo Analyze.

The Nemo Invex system differs from other solutions by adding PC-based modules running Microsoft operating systems that support the attached test devices. In a practical sense, this means that each Universal Interface Controller (UIC) module within the chassis acts as its own computer. The Nemo Invex chassis offers other improvements besides its modular upgrades. For example, the system integrates all Ethernet communications over the backplane, thereby eliminating interconnect cabling. The chassis also improves supervisory control over each module, enabling individual reset. Finally, the Nemo Invex system provides support for up to ten modules.

Both adaptable and expandable, Nemo Invex allows for the simultaneous testing of multiple networks, and provides the flexibility needed to accommodate future high-speed data devices. Smart power supply features and a battery backup provide smooth, uninterrupted service for the chassis.


PREPARATION FOR USE

This chapter explains the precautions needed when opening and unpacking Nemo Invex system components. In addition, this chapter discusses the unpacking and inspecting of individual pieces, as well the operating requirements for the external power supply and external computer.

PRECAUTIONS

Shock Hazard ♦ Use only the Anite-approved power supply. Use of any other supply may cause irreparabale

damage or injury. Any use of non-authorized supplies will immediately void the warranty.

As the Nemo Invex hardware is powered using the test vehicle’s power supply, shock hazards, although minimal do exist. To minimize this risk, when replacing the fuse in the automotive adapter cord, be sure to use an exact replacement with the correct rating and type.

Static-Sensitive Components This unit includes integral static discharge protection devices. However, as with any electronic equipment, care should be taken not to touch connector pins directly.

There are no user-serviceable components inside the basic chassis. However, plug-in modules can be replaced in the field.

UNPACKING AND INSPECTING All equipment is packaged in a single-shock, vibration-protected enclosure.

Examine the carton for signs of damage. If the carton appears to be damaged, do not open the box; contact the shipping agent for information.

Open the carton, and carefully remove each item. Compare all items received with the packing slip, to ensure that the order is complete. Examine each item for physical damage, and make note of any damages observed.

If any equipment or the product DVD is missing, contact Anite Finland immediately.

NEMO INVEX 31

POWER REQUIREMENTS The Nemo Invex chassis is powered by 10 to 16 Volts, DC. +12VDC is required to start up the Nemo Invex chassis. If the input voltage of the chassis is below +12VDC, the chassis will not start. AC power can be used by attaching an optional power supply. If used, the AC power supply is designed to work with 120/ 240VAC 50/60Hz line input. For any other voltages or line frequencies, contact Anite to identify the correct supply.

Note that wiring directly to the battery with the DC cable is the preferred connection method for systems that will have a large number of test devices. Alternatively the optional AC supply is acceptable in vehicles with a properly rated inverter (> 400W). Please note that if the same inverter is also used to provide power for the computer, the inverter must be rated > 500W.

DC Power Cable The chassis is shipped with a DC cable, fuse holder, and fuse. The cable is shipped unterminated so that the user can cut it to length and install the fuse near the vehicle battery. The fuse must be connected as close to the vehicle battery as possible, at least within 30 cm (1 ft) from the battery. The user must crimp the fuse assembly together and add battery terminals. A crimp tool is required for connecting the terminals to the wire. This tool can be purchased at most automotive stores or at any wiring or electrical equipment retailer.

There are three cable models:

Figure 1. Nemo Invex DC Power Cable (499082-11)


Figure 2. Nemo Invex DC Power Cable Kit (N1100-02). Power cable WN000065-1.

♦ Before connecting, remove the fuse from the fuse holder.

Connect one side of the fuse holder to the Red wire of the Nemo Invex DC cable. Connect the other side of the fuse holder to a short wire connected directly to the vehicle’s positive battery terminal. Connect the black wire of the DC cable to a good vehicle grounding location. With 499082-11 cable, use a 2.59mm diameter, 5.26mm2 (AWG10) 10-gauge or larger wire. With N1100-02 cable kit, use a 3.26mm diameter, 8.37mm2 (AWG8) 8-gauge or larger wire.

Please check the fuse type before changing the fuse. Install an equivalently rated fuse in the DC cable fuse holder. With 499082-11 cable, the chassis fuse is a Littlefuse 0314030.HXP or equiv. 30 AMP Fast Acting, 3AB. With N1100-02 cable, the chassis fuse is AFS, 40 AMP.

♦ Caution! Once your wiring is complete, test the DC power connector with a voltmeter to confirm that Pin 2 is positive with respect to Pin 9 BEFORE connecting the cable to the chassis (see diagram in Chapter 3: Basic Chassis).

AC Power Adapter The optional AC supply is rated at 320 Watts. Actual power requirements for the system will vary depending on the number of UIC modules and test handsets and modems in use.

Figure 4. AC Power Supply (499082-16)


Cigarette Lighter Adapter The included cigarette lighter adapter accessory is available to provide a low power vehicle DC power connection. The current rating (8 amps) for this type of connection and the current requirement for the chassis configuration (which depends on the number of modules attached) should be checked before using the cigarette lighter adapter. Also keep in mind that the DC loss through this type of connection can vary greatly, depending on the cleanliness of the connection. Note the cable uses a 10 amp slow blow fuse that is located in the tip of the cigarette lighter plug.

Figure 5. Cigarette Adapter Cable (499082-12)

♦ Caution! Excessive DC loss can cause connection heating and voltage drops below 10 volts. This can result in poor/intermittent operation.

♦ Caution! Nemo Invex system with a maximum of four UIC modules can be connected to a cigarette lighter connection. Systems with more than four UIC modules must be used with an AC inverter or with a DC power cable connected to constant +12V.

INSTALLATION The Nemo Invex platform is well suited to either permanent or temporary installation. It is recommended that all vehicles that may be used with Nemo Invex be fitted with high quality power and RF connections. In addition, proper mounting of the equipment, including all accessories, is necessary for both safety and performance reasons. Installation should be done by a professional for safety reasons.

♦ Caution! Disconnect the 12VDC negative wire from the main battery before installation!

♦ Caution! The main fuse must be connected as close to the vehicle battery as possible, at least within 30 cm (1 ft) from the battery. Connect the black wire of the DC cable to a good vehicle grounding location. Do not bypass the main fuse delivered with the system.

♦ Caution! Route carefully the main power cables from the batteries to the Nemo Invex chassis or inverter. The inverter should be connected to the main battery with its own power cables.

♦ Caution! Mount all cables firmly to the vehicle, for example, using cable ties. Avoid contact with metal or moving parts and heat. Use protective shield or grommets, for example, when passing wires through a firewall.

NEMO INVEX 35

♦ Caution! Use only power cables provided with the system! If extension is needed, use only power cables with 3.26mm diameter, 8.35mm2 (AWG 8) or larger. Do not exceed length of 5 meters (15 ft).

♦ Caution! Excessive DC loss can cause connection heating and voltage drops below 10 volts. This can result in poor/intermittent operation. +12VDC is required to start up the Nemo Invex chassis. If the input voltage of the chassis is below +12VDC, the chassis will not start. In such a case, measure the input voltage from the AUX 12VDC connector located on the rear panel of the chassis. Please see Troubleshooting for further instructions.

♦ Caution! The AUX power connector of the Nemo Invex active chassis is only intended to be used with a passive chassis or with a Nemo FSR1 scanning receiver. No other devices must be connected to this connector.

The figure below illustrates the maximum length of the power cable and the maximum distance for the fuse holder from the vehicle main battery.

♦ Note that the air intake is from the bottom of the chassis so it is critical that the unit is not mounted on carpet or other material that will limit airflow.

♦ Note that if the measurement system is installed in the trunk, make sure proper air flow and air cooling is provided for the system.

♦ It is recommended to use the measurement system in vehicles with air conditioning (A/C).


CHASSIS

This chapter identifies and explains the various components of the Nemo Invex chassis, such as the chassis, backplane, battery, and DC/DC converter.

ACTIVE CHASSIS FRAME The Nemo Invex chassis is designed to function as either a fixed or mobile unit. The unit measures 17.55 cm (H) x 40.18 cm (W) x 45.34 cm (D). In addition to the System Interface (SI) module the chassis has 12 single width module slots available. The first 10 slots on the right of the SI are active and last 2 slots are passive slots. The active slots have backplane connectors to accept Universal Interface Controllers (UICs). Note that any slots not utilized for UICs are available for use by USB and or handset isolation modules (requires two slots).

Example: 3 USB data devices and 3 handsets in isolation modules would fully load the chassis.

3 (UICs) + 3 (USB iso) + 3*2 (HS iso) = 12 slots

The Nemo Invex chassis integrates the backplane, power supply, battery and management system into a robust platform optimized for demanding mobile data collection.

Figure 8. Chassis Parts

♦ Please note that it is absolutely required that a UIC module be present in slot 0 of the Nemo Invex chassis.

♦ Please note that it is absolutely required that for empty slots, blank front panels are used for proper air flow and cooling.

NEMO INVEX 39

The slots in the chassis are numbered from 0 to 9. Slot 0 is the one next to the SI module and the UIC in slot 0 communicates with the backplane processor and with the other UIC modules. In particular, when the chassis is being shut down, it is via UIC0 that the other UICs1-9 receive the command to stop logging and shut down.

If UIC0 is missing, it is possible that other UIC modules will boot and run the measurement server but they will never get any messages from the backplane or UIC0 and, therefore, will not shut down. When the user turns off the rear-panel switch, the backplane waits for all UICs to send a message that they have powered down. It will not receive such messages if UIC0 is not present, and will ultimately remove power after some minutes even if it does not get confirmation that all UICs have shut down. This results in a “hard” shutdown, which can damage the disk drive of the UIC.

CHASSIS BACKPLANE From a practical standpoint, the chassis backplane integrates the system’s communications and control functions together. Specifically, the backplane maintains the following operations:

1. Provides the Gigabit Ethernet switch and connectivity to all the modules communicating with the Nemo Invex software application on the laptop.

2. Includes the power supply and primary control for:

• Module reset and shutdown management

• Battery charging and use management

• Fan control

• Temperature, current, and voltage monitoring

3. Enables 1 pulse-per-second (pps) distribution for GPS functions

NEMO INVEX 41

4. Provides serial communications distribution

Figure 9. Backplane Diagram Showing Functions and Slot Arrangement

PASSIVE CHASSIS

The passive chassis is equivalent to the the active chassis physically but does not contain the backplane and active circuitry to support UIC modules. Rather it is intended to house isolation modules in a secure manner and to cool the modules by pulling ambient air from the filtered opening on the bottom of the chassis and exhausting it through the fan on the back of the chassis.

♦ Please note that it is absolutely required that for empty slots blank front panels are used for proper air flow and cooling.


♦ Note that a power cable needs to be connected from a passive chassis to the AUX connector of an active chassis. This way the fan of the passive chassis (controlled by a thermostat) will prevent test equipment from overheating. If test terminals overheat, they will stop functioning properly.

BATTERY LIFE AND POWER MANAGEMENT The Nemo Invex chassis power supply and power management system ensure that the data collection platform will operate reliably in difficult vehicle situations. Obviously the vehicle must have a sound battery and alternator to support the collection platform, however often issues like voltage transients or loose wires will create havoc with computer based equipment.

The Nemo Invex platform combines an internal battery with a boost regulator into a Uninteruptable Power Supply (UPS). The battery is designed to run the platform for a period of time that allows graceful shutdown in the event that primary power is lost, preserving the data that has been collected and the integrity of the platform itself.

Proper shutdown procedures are followed to protect the integrity of the collected data file. If the power is suddenly removed from the embedded controller (without a UPS), the file system could become corrupt, unstable, or even unreadable. Therefore, to make certain that the embedded PCs have enough time to shut down, a backup battery is used. The battery is a 12.8V 7Ah, chosen because of its inherent safety, high energy density and ability to deliver very high current for just such a scenario as described above.

A fully loaded Nemo Invex system with test devices can draw nominally 20A. If the external power is interrupted, then the backup battery will supply the system with energy. If the interruption is short (less than one minute), the system will continue to operate normally under battery power. If the external power interruption lasts longer than one minute, the shutdown process will be triggered. Assuming a 20A drain, the battery could supply the chassis for up to 15 minutes, enough time for safe shutdown of the UICs.

DC/DC Converter The DC/DC Converter provides regulated system voltages from a nominal +13.6 VDC (10V-16V) input. It is mounted on the inside-back panel of the chassis. Short wires connect the power supply to the backplane. The backplane, in turn, distributes power to the various modules. The voltage outputs provided by this unit are 13.6 volts (unregulated), 3.3 volts, 5 volts, and 6.5 volts.

The +13.6 V input is fused, filtered, transient protected, and switched before distribution on the backplane. The fan is also powered from this output. The main 3.3 volt DC/DC converter provides the majority of the unit’s required power and is attached to a heat sink on the back panel. The 5 volt and 6.5 volt outputs are used for special low current applications. See the General Chassis Specification Table on page 15 for maximum power ratings.

A PIC processor is incorporated on the converter assembly to provide the following supervisory functions:

• Input voltage and current

• Low input voltage shutdown

• Output voltage monitor

• Unit temperature

NEMO INVEX 43

• Fan control

• Remote battery back-up control

Status messages are sent from this processor to the embedded controller via a serial link. See the specification table for monitor/control detail. The input connector located on the back panel provides main input voltage connections, remote power supply type (rating) identification, remote battery back-up monitoring, remote battery back-up control, and remote on/off switch control. The figure below indicates the pin out:

PIN Description

1 2 Positive 10-16 Volt Main Input 3 4 5 Signal Ground 6 Signal Ground 7 8 9 Main Input Ground 10

Power Supply Turn on Conditions The power supply will NOT turn on if:

• Input voltage > 16 Volts

• Input voltage < 10 Volts:

• If the supply last turned off due to low input voltage, it will not turn back on until the input voltage is greater than or equal to 12 volts, or if a power switch is toggled on.

• See the Serious Error and Restart topic below for other turn-on limitations.

Power Supply Emergency Turn off Conditions • Input voltage > 18 Volts

• Input voltage < 9.0 Volts

• 3.3 output voltage < 2.5 Volts (-25%)

• 5.2 output voltage < 3.9 Volts (-25%)

• 3.3 output voltage > 4.0 Volts (+20%)



Power Supply Warning Conditions The power supply will issue a warning (while turned on) if:

• Input current > supply capacity (warning every 1 second)

• Input voltage < 10.5 Volts (warning every 1 second)

• Input voltage > 16.0 Volts (warning every 1 second)


Power Supply Auto Shutdown Conditions Auto shutdown will be initiated if:

• Input voltage < 9.5 Volts

• Input voltage > 17.0 Volts

Figure 10. Automatic power shutdown for over and under voltage conditions

Power Supply Serious Error Conditions and Restarting Once a serious error such as any of the emergency turn off conditions (other than for low voltage) occurs, the supply will NOT automatically turn back on. The Power must be cycled or a power switch (main or remote) must be switched off then on.

Power Supply Fan Function Once a connection to the Nemo Invex software application is completed the fans will function according to the following thresholds:

• Fans on at 35 degrees Celsius

• Fans off at 30 degrees Celsius

♦ Note: Fans may shutdown when a connection to the Nemo Invex software application is completed. This is normal, and the fans will restart when internal chassis temperature reaches 35 degrees C.

NEMO INVEX MODULES

This chapter identifies the various modules and systems that can be housed in the Nemo Invex chassis, including the Universal Interface Module, System Interface Module, USB Isolation Module, and Headset Isolation Module.

UNIVERSAL INTERFACE CONTROLLER MODULE The Universal Interface Controller Module (UIC) is the primary component of the Nemo Invex measurement system. The UIC is a PC-based assembly utilizing Microsoft Embedded 7. Each module supports simultaneous interfacing for two USB devices, such as a handset and/or data modem (however, only one high speed data modem can be used per UIC module). Local mode operation is possible for troubleshooting via keyboard and monitor connections with an optional video adapter cable.

Figure 11. Universal Interface Controller Module, UIC-VQ (499082-02)

Figure 12. Universal Interface Controller Module, UIC-200 (499082-64)


• Provides dedicated resources to interface to handsets and data sticks

• Industrial PC running Windows 7 OS

• 16-40 GB solid state hard drive, no rotating media

• 2 USB ports support 2 devices per card

• 2 power ports for isolation modules

• Ability to shut off USB port power to hard reset locked up devices

• Separate supervisory processor

• Single card slot width

UIC Module: Status LED Control There are four tricolor LEDs (STS, ACT, USB 1 and USB 2) on the UIC module.

NEMO INVEX 47

Restart Measurement Server Users can manually restart nonresponsive UICs through the Nemo Invex SW user interface. In the main view, right-click on a UIC and select Restart Measurement Server Hardware. This command will power cycle the selected measurement server/UIC module.

♦ Please note that this command cannot be used with the UIC module connected to slot zero (192.168.3.210).

After the command is executed, the measurement server/UIC module is power cycled. During power cycling, the module is without power for about 20-30 seconds. After the module starts again, a connection to the measurement server can be re-established manually.

Restart Measurement Server Operating System command restarts the operating system of the selected measurement server/ UIC. Right-click the measurement server/UIC to be reset and select Restart Measurement Server Operating System. This command can be executed on all UICs including measurement server/UIC module located in the slot zero. After the module starts again, a connection to the measurement server is re-established automatically. OS restart can be executed in idle mode when devices are connected but not recording. You can, for example, restart a UIC after driver installation without the need to power cycle the entire Nemo Invex system using the main power switch.


SYSTEM INTERFACE MODULE Each Nemo Invex chassis contains a system interface module. The SI module houses the embedded GPS unit and antenna connections, in addition to two RJ-45 plugs providing 1Gbit Ethernet connections. For more information on the SI module with optional DR kit, please refer to page 63.

The SI module provides a splitter with amplification to distribute GPS antenna signal to an optional external digital scanner.

The Nemo Invex system maintains accurate time measurements when collecting data. Even if the unit loses its GPS signal, the reported time will synchronize for as long as the unit maintains a network connection. By default, the device checks with the network every five minutes. The GPS receiver conforms to Datum WGS84 and maintains an accuracy of 2.5 M or better at altitudes up to 5000 M above sea level.

When devices are used both locally with the control PC and with the Nemo Invex chassis, a separate GPS unit needed to be connected to the control PC. With the new functionality the measurement server allows the GPS data to be sent from the measurement server in the Nemo Invex UIC to the measurement server in the control PC without the need to use a separate GPS receiver. Measurement servers automatically detect if the GPS data can be transmitted or received.

♦ The System Interface module must occupy the left-most slot in the Nemo Invex chassis.

Figure 13. System Interface (SI) Module (100800-01)

NEMO INVEX 49

Figure 14. System Interface (SI) Module with DR (499082-10).

SI Module: GPS Unit and Time Calibration The Nemo Invex System Interface (SI) module serves two key purposes. First, it provides the Ethernet connections to the chassis’ backplane hub. The module houses two gigabit ports, one for the user interface, and the other for adding an Ethernet connected scanner. The SI module also contains the GPS unit. The GPS system is based on the UBLOX 6 receiver.

UBLOX 6 performance specifications:

Parameter Specification

Horizontal position accuracy SBAS < 2.0 m

Accuracy of timepulse signal RMS 50 ns

Max navigation update rate 4 Hz

Dynamics ≤ 4 g

Operational limits Velocity 515 m/s (1000 knots)


Every Nemo Invex system must hold a Universal Interface Controller Module in the first user slot. This UIC is responsible for controlling GPS functions, and reporting GPS status. The GPS NMEA messages and 1pps time pulse are, in turn, routed from the SI card to every UIC connected to the chassis. Each UIC uses this GPS information to accurately set the PC clock.

It is critical for the Nemo Invex platform – or any accurate network measurement system – to provide precise time information, so that accurate data can be collected, particularly in regard to Voice Quality.

SI Module: Status LED Control There are two tricolor LEDs (STS and GPS) on the SI module.

State/Trigger LED(s) set Main switch switched on, internal 5V within acceptable range STS and GPS green on GPS not locked (set by UIC0 Pic) GPS yellow On GPS locked (set by UIC0 Pic) GPS green On Pic code updated by updatePic or IP base address change from Maintenance Service, indicating the chassis should be power-cycled STS fast red blink Shutdown initiated by the backplane, immediately prior to sending message to UIC0 to start system shutdown STS and GPS yellow on Immediately prior to turning fan off, disconnecting battery, and turning main power off STS and GPS off

HANDSET ISOLATION MODULE The Handset Isolation modules provide approximately 50 dB of isolation and active/passive cooling for a wide range of supported handsets for voice or data testing. The module features a high-quality machined aluminum case with 2 SMA antenna ports, a USB 2.0 connection and an auxiliary power port. USB and power are supplied to the handset isolation module from the UIC. Cable sets for specific phone models are required. The module occupies two slots in the Nemo Invex chassis.

NEMO INVEX 51

Figure 16. Handset Isolation Module with external SIM access (499082-xx, extension varies by device supported)

A key feature is that device power can be independently switched allowing recovery from all recoverable issues. Additional features include an internal audio soundcard, temperature sensor, data storage, EEPROM and Flash memory. The USB-A connector inside the module is currently unused, in the future it could be connected to a Bluetooth audio link or USB data card

Description Specification Processor PIC32MX795 Memory 128K RAM, 512K ROM,4MB Flash, E2PROM 8K Software updates Download via Nemo Outdoor Device control Programmatic hard power reset Battery eliminator Passive voltage regulation on main board Device data interface USB 2.0 Device audio interface Single or double-ended UIC interface USB 2.0 Module width 10HP 2”

For a handset to be supported in the Handset Isolation Module a custom cable set must first be created. This cable set includes 1) handset connector (USB or proprietary) 2) battery eliminator (BE) 3) RF cable(s) for the handset antenna and 4) audio cable. The cable set is typically unique to a handset and the user must set DIP switches to identify to the software what handset / cable set is installed. The cable set is user / field installable with proper tools and care. The handset and BE are secured in the housing with a Velcro strap and elastomer mounting pad.

Once operational the software queries the handset module to see what device is installed and what type of BE is in use. Note the connectors are all unique, polarized and and fully shrouded so that the user will not be able to accidentally or unknowingly plug intermix high voltage and low voltage eliminators with the wrong type of cable set.

The initialization routine will start the handset and also set the audio play and record gain levels. Once this is accomplished, the handset is released and made available for Nemo Outdoor

♦ Caution! When operating the system, in other words, measuring, the cover of the handset isolation module must always be closed to avoid possible interference to audio, etc.


MODEM ISOLATION MODULE The Modem Isolation module provides RF isolation for USB modems with 2 antenna ports and USB connectivity. The module provides secure mounting for the USB modem using an adjustable mounting bracket that works in conjunction with a cushioned pad to hold the modem firmly in place. The modem plugs into the USB Type A connector located at the rear of the module, while the front panel provides both USB Type B and antenna (SMA(F) type coaxial) connections. The module occupies one slot in the Nemo Invex chassis.

MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

This chapter explains the general process for removing and adding modules to the Nemo Invex system. The chassis contains 10 primary slot positions.

♦ Caution! Empty module positions require blank covers

To provide proper cooling air flow across all modules, empty slots must be covered using blank panel assemblies. The part numbers for blank panel assemblies vary by size and can be purchased from Anite.

MODULE INSTALLATION ♦ Caution! Modules are electrostatic sensitive.

Even a small electrostatic discharge could damage the module. A damaged module might not fail immediately, but over time will become worse, possibly causing an “intermittent” problem. Be very careful to handle the boards ONLY by the edges. DO NOT touch the connectors or components on the board. Leave the modules in the antistatic bag until ready for installation.

1. Turn power switch on unit to the off position but leave power connected.

2. Touch the metal chassis case to discharge any possible static charge.

3. Carefully remove the module from the antistatic bag. Keep body movement to a minimum as the modules are handled.

4. Install module into the desired slot by carefully pressing until fully seated.

5. Tighten hold down screws.

MODULE REMOVAL 1. Turn power switch on unit to the off position but leave power connected.

HANDSET ISOLATION MODULE WITH INTERNAL SIM CONNECTOR

Nemo Invex handset isolation modules are shipped from Anite Finland pre-installed and pre-configured. Customers will need to insert SIM cards. Please follow the instructions below.

♦ Please make sure that PIN code has been disabled from the SIM card used with the isolation module.

1. Open the cover of the isolation module by unscrewing six screws. Handle the unit carefully. Do not touch or twist the cables and do not remove the terminal.

2. Locate the SIM card connector attached to the wall of the isolation module. Push the SIM card into the connector.

3. Make sure that the RF gasket is in place and place the isolation module cover on the box and tighten the six screws to secure the cover in place.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS DIP switches are used with handset isolation modules to define the correct power-up sequence for a test terminal and to set correct audio gains for voice quality testing. After the handset is powered on it can be detected normally using a USB connection.

The settings are preconfigured at the factory so there is usually no need to change these. This step is required only if the device is changed.

♦ Note that the handset can be damaged if the DIP switch settings are incorrect!

NEMO INVEX VOICE QUALITY MODULE (VQM)

Nemo Invex Voice Quality module supports MOS scoring on handsets without a Handset Isolation Module. Handsets used with Nemo Invex voice quality modules, can take full advantage of MIMO and diversity functionality with their own internal antennas. The module operates with a battery or with a battery eliminator and it provides USB, audio, and battery eliminator connectivity. It also retains the ability to restart malfunctioning devices.

SI MODULE WITH DR (OPTIONAL)

Dead Reckoning (DR) provides GPS positioning in locations where GPS data is missing or the signal is weak. In dead reckoning, positioning data is calculated based on speed, heading, and direction. The Nemo Invex SI module incorporates LEA-6R u-blox 6 GPS modules with Sensor Fusion Dead Reckoning (SFDR). Accelerometers are located inside the SI module. Average accuracy is better than 5% and position is given as an average of the GPS and the external wheel sensor.

The optional GPS Dead Reckoning Kit (100820-17) includes the following parts:

• Nemo Invex DR- Input Module, 499082-58 (AN000024.G1)

• DR Cable Kit WN000047 with accessories

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS ♦ Note that it is imperative that the Nemo Invex chassis is fixed with screws in your vehicle if

dead reckoning is used.

The installation of the GPS DR unit varies from car to car. It is recommended that you go to a local car dealership and ask help with connecting the cables and locating the speed pulse signal for your car. Alternatively, find a service that installs taximeters and ask them to do the GPS DR unit installation for you.

The speedpulse signal required for DR modules must have a frequency range from 1 Hz to 2kHz (0 Hz is equal to a speed of 0 km/hour) and must be linear to the driven speed.

Non-linearity of the speedpulse signal (e.g. speed dead band: no pulses below a certain speed limit), may lead to wrong direction calculation and therefore wrong positioning. If the pulse frequency is below the minimum frequency (1Hz), speed will be set to 0 m/s and the position output is frozen at the last known position.

It is recommended to use a direction indicator for best DR performance. If the forward/backward direction signal is not available, try to make use of the reverse gear light.(LEA-6R Application Note).


HARDWARE The DR system is designed to use the speed information and backup light information from a car, combine this with a MEMs gyro to give speed and heading information when GPS is lost. Before the system will work, it must be connected to a car. All newer cars use digital speed control. This is different for each car.

Choose the car/van you are going to use and then access the VSS (vehicle speed sensor). On the input module of the SI, there is a set of screw terminals, a dip switch, and two LEDs.

Figure 25. DR analog input module (499082-58).

Figure 26. DR input cable (WN000047) and four tap splices.

There are four pins on the screw terminal:

1 - VSS negative

2 - VSS positive

3 - Backup signal positive

4 - Ground

NEMO INVEX 65

Connect the VSS positive to the VSS signal and the VSS negative to the closest ground. The ground can be the chassis or a screw holding down the sensor/computer. Connect the backup signal the same way.

The dip switch settings are:

1 - VSS enable (should be left on at all times)

2 - 6 unused

7 - Backup signal

8 - Backup signal inverted

♦ NOTE: Switches 7 and 8 should never be on together. This can cause instability and erroneous readings.

Once the hardware is installed do a quick check. Start the engine and turn the system on. Once the mainframe has started, look at the two LEDs on the interface module. One is marked FORWARD and the other SPEED.

When the car is not moving, the SPEED LED should be off. When the car is moving forward, the FORWARD LED should be on. If not, switch 7 and 8. Now the LED should be on. Put the car in reverse and the LED should switch off (assuming you connected Pin 3 on the screw terminal).

Now drive forward approximately at the speed of 3 km/h (2 mph). The Speed LED should blink slowly. When you stop, the LED should go off. The LED has a 0.1 sec on time per pulse, so when the car is moving 15 km/h (10 mph) and faster, the LED will stay on. If the LED ever goes off and stays off while you are moving, there is a problem.

INSTALLING DRIVER AND U-CENTER APPLICATION Please refer to the USBSensorDriverForWindows7(GPS-SW-09012).pdf document (Chapter 3) available on the Nemo Invex product DVD for instructions on installing the drivers on the Nemo Invex laptop.

After installing the drivers, install the U-Center application on the Nemo Invex laptop. Run the u-centerSetup-6.3.1.0.exe file found on the Nemo Invex product DVD and follow the instructions on screen.

Once the drivers and the U-Center program have been installed, connect a USB to mini USB cable from the PC to the UBLOX module. Under Device Manager on the PC you should see a virtual serial port.


Start the U-Center program, open Receiver, Port and select the virtual COM port. At the bottom of the screen, there is a serial port symbol. It should show it is connected and should blink green when data is transferred.

DR CALIBRATION ♦ Note that you must have good satellite coverage for the calibration to start.

♦ When calibrating the unit, start the Nemo Invex mainframe, but do not start Nemo Outdoor. When the USB cable is connected to the SI and U-Center is started, it takes over control of the GPS system. When the USB cable is disconnected, the GPS system will not give the correct messages for Nemo Outdoor to run properly.

Open the U-Center application and open the Configuration view by clicking the Configuration View button in the toolbar.

Select EKF from the list on the left to view the EKF settings.

EKF Enabled should be selected at all times. To clear old information and start a new calibration, select the Clear Calibration Data option then press Send at the bottom of the Configuration view. This is needed only when you first put a system in a vehicle or if you do a major position change on the mainframe, such as, a 90Deg shift.

Set the Gyro axis to Counterclockwise

Set the Direction Pin Polarity to High Forward.

Finally press Send.

NEMO INVEX 67

Now open the Messages view by clicking the Message View button in the toolbar.

First select UBX – ESF – MEAS from the list on the left.

The 10-Single Tick value should increase as the car moves. If the LED blinks when the car moves, and the Single Tick value does not change, then there is a hardware problem. Similarly, the Gyro Z value should change as you turn left or right. Temperature will change with temperature.

Then select UBX – NAV – EKFSTATUS.


Once you get a good GPS signal and start driving, this screen will show how well the system is calibrated. The scale factor will calibrate first. You must drive for 1 to 3 kilometers (1 to 2 miles) without sharp turns for this to calibrate. Once the Scale Factor Ticks is above 80%, the Gyro and Bias will start to calibrate. This may take 8 to 15 kilometers (5 to 10 miles). You need to make several turns during this time period.

After all three values, Scale Factor Ticks, Scale Factor Gyro, and Bias Gyro are above 80%, the DR system will start to work. You can remove the antenna and you should still get GPS information. Disconnect U-Center, remove the USB cable, and turn the Nemo Invex mainframe off. The system is now ready for normal use. However, if the U-Center program is used at any point, the Nemo Invex mainframe must be shut down and re-started when the U-Center program is disconnected.

In short, you need to

1. Start the Nemo Invex mainframe, but not Nemo Outdoor.

2. Connect the USB cable and start U-Center.

3. Reset the EKF system.

4. Run the calibration, look at the % calibration message. When all parameters are above 95%, the unit is calibrated.

5. Disconnect U-Center and remove the USB cable.

6. Turn the Nemo Invex mainframe off.

♦ Note that the calibration process should be repeated if/when the system is moved to another vehicle.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION

Check the condition of all antennas, cables, and connectors: there should be no tight curves, no slashes or cuts.

Check that connectors are properly connected. Loose connections cause unstable measurements or wrong attenuation of signals.

Place antennas properly on the roof of the vehicle. Antennas should be installed as symmetrically as possible and at least one wavelength from the corners and roof windows, and two wavelengths from each other. If antennas are too close to each other, it may cause interference. Check the configuration before starting the measurement.

Minimum distances between antennas

Band (MHz) λ

450 66 cm (26”)

700 42 cm (18”)

850 35 cm (14”)

900 33 cm (13”)

1900 16 cm (6.3”)

2100 14 cm (5.5”)

2300 13 cm (5.1”)

2500 12 cm (4.7”)

2600 11 cm (4.3”)

GPS (1565- 1575) 19 cm (7.5”)

♦ Individual antennas and the mobile holder antenna couplers may have different performance.

♦ When removing antennas after a drive test, DO NOT pull antennas from the antenna cables. Hold the antenna from the base and tilt the antenna away from the cable.

NEMO INVEX 87

TROUBLESHOOTING CHASSIS DOES NOT START OR NO POWER If the chassis does not start, most likely the problem is caused by lost power or too low input voltage. Input voltage must be > +12VDC to start up the system. Always use the power cables delivered with the system. If extension cables are needed, only use power cables with 3.26mm diameter, 8.35mm2 (AWG 8) or larger. Do not exceed total length of 5 meters (15 ft) if not absolutely necessary. In such a case, the extension cable must be thicker than specified to prevent voltage drop.

Before checking the input voltage, make sure the main fuse and battery fuses are properly working. Make sure the main power switch is turned on and the vehicle engine is running. The input voltage must be measured from the chassis using the AUX 12VDC connector located on the rear panel of the chassis shown in the picture below.

Measure the input voltage using a multimeter using the pins of the AUX 12VDC connector. Connect the GND (ground) wire to GND. Connect the positive wire to +12VDC. Use caution not to short circuit the pins. Voltage must be > +12VDC. If the car is running and the battery is charging, the voltage has to be above +12VDC, normally close to +13.8VDC. This is required to even maintain the current battery charge. If the car is not running, a terminal voltage of +12VDC represents a nearly completely discharged battery.

Main fuse

Battery fuse


♦ Caution! Only use power cables provided with the system! If an extension is needed, use only power cables with 3.26mm diameter, 8.35mm2 (AWG 8) or larger. Do not exceed length of 5 meters (15 ft).

♦ Caution! Excessive DC loss can cause connection heating and voltage drops below 10 volts. This can result in poor/intermittent operation. +12VDC is required to start up the Nemo Invex chassis. If the input voltage of the chassis is below +12VDC, the chassis will not start. In such a case, measure the input voltage from the AUX 12VDC connector located on the rear panel of the chassis.

UIC UNIT DOES NOT START If a UIC unit does not update properly, restart the UIC. Select the UIC and from the Tools menu select Restart UIC(s).

If a UIC unit does not update properly and you have already restarted the UIC, delete the following file from the UIC: C:\Program Files\Anite\Nemo Invex\Software\VersionInformation.xml. Then try running the update again.
