Use this command to select the mode (AUTO or MANUAL) of setting the CAG for the purpose of interference detection.
If auto mode is used, the receiver will automatically compute the CAG at start up. In this case it is assumed that the receiver is powered up with its antenna connected and no interference is present.
If the antenna is changed, either reset the receiver or reissue this command to allow receiver to re-compute the CAG.
If manual mode is used, the CAG input by the user is used by the receiver to detect interference.
The CAG is defined to be the cascaded RF gain before receiver input plus LNA noise figure (NF), counting active antenna LNA gain, in-line amplifier, RF cable or distribution loss prior to receiver input connector.
A typical GNSS active antenna (of reasonable quality) has a noise figure of ~2dB (dominated by the LNA in an active antenna).
RFINPUTGAIN = Cascaded Gain before receiver + LNA NF
For advanced users.
If using this command in manual mode, the antenna gain must be accurately measured when the system is not experiencing any interference. If an erroneous CAG is injected, the interference detection performance can be degraded.
