ComNav Vector G2 & G2B Installation & Operation Appendices
Document PN 29010078 V2.0 - 89 -
DRAFT #3 – 29 May 2009
Appendix 3
Vector Model Generations
To date, there have been 3 generations of the Vector G2 & G2B GPS Compasses. All are
named “Vector G2” (or “Vector G2B”), and all use the same ComNav part numbers; for
example, PN 11210001 is a Vector G2 with 15m cable & mounting brackets, irrespective of
generation.
Identifying Generations
The model generations can only be distinguished by the serial number, which is located on
the label on the underside of the enclosure.
The serial number is in the format YYWW-nnnn-nnnn (the number of digits in the
“n” fields can vary). The first four digits of the serial number indicate the year and
week of manufacture: YYWW means week WW of year 20YY.
A first-generation model has a serial number with the first four digits being less than
0722. For Installation & Operation information on those first-generation models,
please refer to revision 1.2 of this manual.
The second-generation model has a serial number with the first four digits being
greater than 0722, but less than 0902. For information on those second-generation
models, please refer to revision 1.6 (with Addendum #1) of this manual.
The third-generation model has a serial number with the first four digits being 0902,
or some higher four-digit code. Revision 2.0 (or later) of this manual is applicable
primarily to the third generation (& possibly later) of the Vector G2 & G2B GPS
Compasses.
Differences between Generations
All Vector G2 & G2B GPS Compasses are customised OEM versions of certain GPS
Compasses made by Hemisphere GPS™ (formerly CSI Wireless), of Calgary,
Alberta, Canada and Scottsdale, Arizona, U.S.A.:
The first-generation ComNav Vector G2 is based on Hemisphere’s Vector GPS
Compass, while the ComNav Vector G2B is based on the Vector PRO. All these
models use Hemisphere’s SLX GPS receiver technology.
The second-generation Vector G2 is based on Hemisphere’s initial MV100 series
(using their Crescent™ GPS receiver technology) – the G2 on the MV100, the
G2B on the MV110.
The third-generation Vector G2 is based on Hemisphere’s subsequent minor
update of the MV100 series – the G2 on that MV100, the G2B on that MV110.
The third-generation G2/G2Bs also were shipped with an improved
factory-default configuration
31
.
All ComNav Vectors have differences from the corresponding Hemisphere
models, in their operational specifications & factory-default configuration settings;
for details, please refer to the respective ComNav & Hemisphere models’
specifications.
ComNav Vectors do not support any of Hemisphere’s various optional
GPS/DGPS receiver features or subscription applications (e-Dif, OmniSTAR,
L-Dif™, etc.).

Some of the later 2
nd
-generation Vectors were the updated MV100/110s, but were still shipped with the original (2006)
factory-default G2/G2B configuration settings. The rest were shipped with the improved configuration – in particular, any
08xx units still in stock at ComNav at the time the new configuration was implemented, April 2009.
