The lidar's GPS data interface accepts a variety of GPRMC formats, as long as:
Field <01> (after the first comma separator) is the hour, minute, and second information.
Field <09> (after the ninth comma separator) is the date information.
For example, the following formats are both acceptable:
$GPRMC,072242,A,3027.3680,N,11423.6975,E,000.0,316.7,160617,004.1,W*67
