246 DG14 and DG16 Board & Sensor Reference Manual
If the command is set without a period, the DG16 uses the period set by the
$PASHS,NME,PER command If the $PASHS,NME,PER command is issued after
this message period has been set, the period resets to the PER setting.
Example
Enter the following command to enable GST message on port B.
$PASHS,NME,GST,B,ON
$PASHQ,GST,[c1]
This command queries the GST message, where c1 is the optional port designator
for the output of the response. If a port is not specified, the receiver sends the
response to the current port.
$GPGST
The GST message contains UTC time, the RMS value of the standard deviation
for satellite range measurements, and the corresponding standard deviation values
for latitude, longitude, and altitude. The response is output in the format:
$GPGST,m1,f2,f3,f4,f5,f7,f8,f9*hh
Table 8.18 outlines the message format.
