digital compass solution hmr3000 the honeywell hmr3000 is a digital compas s module that provides heading, pitch, and roll outputs for navigation. three honeywells magneto - resistive sensors are oriented in orthogonal directions to measure the vector components of earths magnetic field. a fluid tilt sensor is employed to determine a gravitational reference. these solid - state sensors create a strapdown compass that is both rugged and reliable. the data output is serial full - duplex rs - 232 or half - duplex rs - 485 with 1200 to 19,200 data rates. applications include: compassing & navigation, dead reckoning backup to gps systems, marine navigation, antenna positioning, and land surveying a rs - 232 development kit version is available that includes a windows compatible demo program (does not work with rs - 485 devices) , interface c able, ac adapter and carrying case. honeywell continues to maintain product excellence and performance by introducing innovative solid - state magnetic sensor solutions. these are highly reliable, top performance products that are delivered when promised. honeywells magnetic sensor solutions provide real solutions you can count on. features & benefits block diagram ? high accuracy, <0.5 with 0.1 resolution ? wide tilt range of ? ? up to 20 updates per second ? ? ? ? ? ? c hmc1002 hmc1001 pwr cond v+ eeprom tx rx uart adc gnd 2 - axis tilt ? c hmc1002 hmc1001 pwr cond v+ eeprom tx rx uart adc gnd 2 - axis tilt

hmr3000 4 www.honeywell.com data communications the hmr3000 serial communications are governed by a simple asynchronous, ascii protocol modeled after the nmea 0183 standard. either an rs - 232 or an rs - 485 electrical interface can be ordered. ascii characters are transmitted and received using 1 start bit, 8 data bits (lsb first), no parity (msb always 0), and 1 stop bit; 10 bits total per character. t he baud rate defaults to 19,200 and can be reconfigured to 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400 bits per second. th e hmr3000 supports both standard nmea 0183 and proprietary messages. unsolicited nmea messages are sent by the hmr3000 in continuous mode at the rates programmed in the eeprom. hmr3000 also responds to all input messages from the host. an hmr3000 response to a command input may be delayed due to transmission of an unsolicited output. the host computer must wait for hmr3000 to respond to the last command input before sending another command message. all communication from and to hmr3000 contain a two - charact er checksum field at the end of the data fields, and are denoted in the sentences by hh. the checksum assures the accuracy of the message transmitted. this checksum is also calculated per nmea 0183 standard. the rs - 232 signals are single - ended undirect ional levels that are sent received simultaneously (full duplex). one signal is from the host personal computer (pc) transmit (td) to the hmr3000 receive (rd) data line, and the other is from the hmr3000 td to the pc rd data line. when a logic one is sent, either the td or rd line will drive to about +6 volts referenced to ground. for a logic zero, the td or rd line will drive to about C 6 volts below ground. since the signals are transmitted and dependent on an absolute voltage level, this limits the distan ce of transmission due to line noise and signal to about 60 feet. when using rs - 485 (1) , the signals are balanced differential transmissions sharing the same lines (half - duplex). this means that logic one the transmitting end will drive the b line at least 1.5 volts higher than the a line. for a logic zero, the transmitting end will drive the b line at least 1.5 volts lower than the a line. since the signals are transmitted as differe nce voltage level, these signals can withstand high noise environments or over very long distances where line loss may be a problem; up to 4000 feet. note that long rs - 485 lines should be terminated at both ends with 120 - ohm resistors. specific measurement descriptions and interface commands are not included in this datasheet b ut are included in the companion hmr3000 users guide document. (1) demonstration software for the hmr3000 does not support the rs - 485(half - duplex) protocol. the software is only available with the rs - 232 interface. circuit description the hmr3000 digital compass module contains all the basic sensors and electronics to provide digital indication of heading and tilt. the hmr3000 has all three axis of magnetic sensors on the far end of the printed circuit board, away from the connector interface. the hmr3000 uses the circuit board mounting holes or the enclosure surfaces as the reference mechanical directions. the complete hmr3000 pcb assembly consists of a mother board and the 9 - pin d - connector. the hmr3000 circuit starts with the honeywell hmc1001 1 - axis m agnetic sensor and the hmc1002 2 - axis magnetic sensor elements to provide the x, y, and z axis magnetic sensing of the earths field. these sensor output voltages are then amplfied and converted to a digital representation. a microcontroller integrated cir cuit receives the digitized magnetic field values (readings) by periodically querying the analog to digital converter (adc) and performs the necessary offset value corrections provided by the eeprom via the calibration routine. this microcontroller also pe rforms the external serial data interface and other housekeeping functions. the onboard eeprom integrated circuit also is employed to retain necessary setup variables for best performance. a liquid filled two - axis (pitch, roll) tilt sensor is also used to create tilt compensated heading data. this tilt sensor performs an electronic gimballing function and is normally mounted flat (pcb horizontal) for maximum tilt range.
hmr3000 www.honeywell.com 5 applications precautions several precautions should be observed when using magnetic compasses in general: ? the presence of ferrous materials, such as nickel, iron, steel, and cobalt near the magnetometer will create disturbances in the earths magnetic field that will distort the x, y, and z field measurements. ? perming effects on the hmr 3000 circuit board need to be taken into account. if the hmr3000 is exposed to fields greater than 10 gauss, then it is recommended that the enclosure/circuit boards be degaussed for highest sensitivity and resolution. a possible result of perming is a hig h zero - field output indication that exceeds specification limits. degaussing wands are readily available from local electronics tool suppliers and are inexpensive. severe field offset values could result if not degaussed. non - ferrous materials materials that do not affect surrounding magnetic fields are: copper, brass, gold, aluminum, some stainless steels, silver, tin, silicon, and most non - metals. handling precautions the hmr3000 digital compass module measures fields within 1 gauss in magnitude. computer floppy disks (diskettes) store data with field strengths of approximately 10 gauss. this means that the hmr3000 is many times more sensitive than common floppy disks. please treat the compass with at least the same caution as your diskettes by avo iding motors, crt video monitors, and magnets. even though the loss of performance is recoverable, these magnetic sources will interfere with measurements. the fluidic tilt sensor works best when kept near level, and in calm to moderate vibration conditio ns. if turned upside down or violently jarred, not all the fluid will immediately return to the bottom of the tilt sensors glass ampoule. accurate til t and tilt compensated headings may be unavailable for a minute or two to allow for the fluid to transit to the bottom of the ampoule. pcb dimensions and pinout
