■ NMEA Input Command
A.) Set Serial Port ID:100 Set PORTA parameters and protocol
This command message is used to set the protocol (SiRF Binary, NMEA, or USER1) and/or
the communication parameters (baud, data bits, stop bits, parity). Generally, this command
is utilize to switch the GPS module back to SiRF Binary protocol mode, where an extensive
message commands are readily available. In example, whenever users are interested in
altering navigation parameters, a valid message sent and is receive by the recipient module,
the new parameters will be stored in battery backed SRAM and then the receiver will restart
using the saved parameters.
Format:
$PSRF100,<protocol>,<baud>,<DataBits>,<StopBits>,<Parity>*CKSUM
<CR><LF>
<protocol> 0=SiRF Binary, 1=NMEA, 4=USER1
<baud> 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400
<DataBits> 8,7. Note that SiRF protocol is only valid f8 Data bits
<StopBits> 0,1
<Parity> 0=None, 1=Odd, 2=Even
Example 1: Switch to SiRF Binary protocol at 9600,8,N,1
$PSRF100,0,9600,8,1,0*0C<CR><LF>
Example 2: Switch to User1 protocol at 38400,8,N,1
$PSRF100,4,38400,8,1,0*38<CR><LF>
**Checksum Field: The absolute value calculated by exclusive-OR the 8 data bits of each
character in the Sentence, between, but, excluding “$” and “*”. The hexadecimal value of the
most significant and least significant 4 bits of the result are converted to two ASCII characters
