1.6.4.3 GPS 17x HVS Protocol
•
NMEA 0183 Version 3.01 (the factory default version) is programmable by data field 7 of the PGRMC1
sentence described in
•
Available NMEA 0183 output sentences include GPALM, GPGGA, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPRMC, GPVTG,
GPGLL, PGRME, PGRMF, PGRMM, PGRMT, PGRMV, and PGRMB (Garmin proprietary sentences).
See
section 4.2 Transmitted NMEA 0183 Sentences
•
Configuration and initialization is accomplished with NMEA 0183 input sentences. Allows initialization of
information such as expected position, date, time, earth datum, and differential mode. See
Received NMEA 0183 Sentences
•
Configurable for binary data output.
1.6.4.4 Measurement Pulse Output
•
1 Hz pulse with programmable width, configurable in 20 ms increments from 20 ms to 980 ms. See
4.1.3 Sensor Configuration Information (PGRMC)
Output (or PPS) feature.
•
1 μs accuracy for all conditions in which the GPS 17x HVS reported a valid and accurate position fix for at
least the previous 4 seconds.
