NMEA Input Messages
The following outlines the serial commands input into the module for
configuration. By default, the commands are input at 9,600bps, 8 data bits,
1 start bit, 2 stop bits, and no parity.
All fields in all proprietary NMEA messages are required; none are optional.
All NMEA messages are comma delimited. Figure 17 outlines the message
identifiers supported by the module.
Serial Data Structure
Name Example Description
Start Sequence $PSRF
Message ID <MID>
Message Identifier consisting of three numeric
characters. Input messages begin at MID 100.
Payload DATA Message specific data.
Checksum CKSUM
CKSUM is a two-hex character checksum as
defined in the NMEA specification, NMEA-0183
Standard for Interfacing Marine Electronic Devices.
Checksums are required on all input messages.
End Sequence <CR> <LF>
Each message must be terminated using Carriage
Return (CR) Line Feed (LF) (\r\n, 0x0D0A) to cause
the receiver to process the input message. They
are not printable ASCII characters, so are omitted
from the examples.
