TApplicationsT MG-ST01SP module board receiver is a high performance, ultra low power consumption, plug &play product. Car Navigation Wrist Watch Solar Operated Device Marine Navigation Fleet Management AVL and Location-Based Services Radar detector with GPS function Hand-Held Device for Personal Positioning and Navigation Ideal for PDA, Pocket PC and Other Computing Devices at GPS Application 6. Assisted GPS With Assisted GPS technology, GPS Data (ephemeris data) will be downloaded from an A-GPS Server through internet and transferred to the GPS Module via Wire or Wireless like Bluetooth. This will greatly reduce the TTFF since the positions of the satellites are known. The downloaded GPS data will expire in 7 days if the GPS is not being used. If GPS receiver is being used on daily basis, GPS data will also be downloaded from satellites. www. modulestek. com 8 No. 208, Jhengkang 1st St. , Taoyuan City, Taoyuan County 330, Taiwan TEL:+886-3-3311143 FAX:+886-3-3316751 Key Modules For Your Success 7.

NMEA standard messages commence with `GP' then a 3-letter message identifier. The message header is followed by a comma delimited list of fields optionally terminated with a checksum consisting of an asterisk `*' and a 2 digit hex value representing the checksum. When present, the checksum is calculated as a bitwise exclusive of the characters between the `$' and `*'. As an ASCII representation, the number of digits in each number will vary depending on the number and precision, hence the record length will vary. Certain fields may be omitted if they are not used, in which case the field position is reserved using commas to ensure correct interpretation of subsequent fields. The tables below indicate the maximum and minimum widths of the fields to allow for buffer size allocation. www. modulestek. com 10 No. 208, Jhengkang 1st St. , Taoyuan City, Taoyuan County 330, Taiwan TEL:+886-3-3311143 FAX:+886-3-3316751 Key Modules For Your Success $GPGGA This message transfers global positioning system fix data.
