RaceGrade BL GPS V3 20hz

Details

These units are drop in replacements for any current product. The exterior dimensions and connector types and pin-outs are identical. They are marked clearly as V3 units. They do require a new antenna for Multi GNSS capabilities, but can use pre-existing RaceGrade GPS antennas if they are not subscribed to Multi GNSS.

The basics are that the performance without the paid-for Multi-GNSS option will nearly identical to the V2.1 device with a few software perks.

With Multi-GNSS enabled the unit uses GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou;

- Tracks up to 12 US GPS satellites
- Tracks up to 12 GLONASS satellites
- Tracks up to 22 BieDou satellites
- Tracks up to 3 SBAS correction satellites in parallel
  - Galileo and QZSS capable with firmware update
All variants deliver high-precision, differential positioning accuracy of 60 cm, 95% of the time
- 67% of the time precision will be 30cm
- Consumer off the shelf GPS is typically no less than 2.5M
COAST and SureTrack routines maintain sub-meter DGNSS positioning for 40 minutes after SBAS correction loss

Frequently Asked Questions About RaceGrade BL GPS V3 20hz

What is the benefit of the 20Hz update rate?

The 20Hz unit updates its position 20 times per second, twice as fast as the standard 10Hz model. This provides significantly smoother speed traces and more precise line analysis for high-speed racing.

Is the V3 20Hz a direct physical replacement for older units?

Yes. It features identical exterior dimensions, connector types, and pin-outs to previous RaceGrade BL units, allowing for a hassle-free drop-in upgrade.

How accurate is the positioning data?

The V3 offers professional differential positioning accuracy of 60cm (95% of the time) and can achieve precision down to 30cm (67% of the time), vastly superior to the ~2.5m accuracy of consumer GPS.

Does this unit support Multi-GNSS?

Yes, the hardware is Multi-GNSS capable. With the feature enabled, it tracks US GPS, Russian GLONASS, and Chinese BeiDou satellites simultaneously for maximum signal availability.

What is the purpose of the COAST and SureTrack features?

These advanced software routines allow the GPS to maintain sub-meter accuracy for up to 40 minutes even if the primary SBAS correction signal is temporarily lost.
