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 or NMEA) and/or the
communication parameters (baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity). Generally, this command
is used to switch the module back to SiRF Binary protocol mode where a more extensive
command message set is available. When a valid message is received, the parameters are stored
in battery-backed SRAM and the receiver will resumes using the saved parameters.

B). Navigation lnitialization ID:101 Parameters required for start
This command is used to cause a restart of the receiver, and to specify the type of restart.
Optionally, it may also initialize position (in X, Y, Z ECEF coordinates), clock drift, GPS Time Of
Week and GPS Week Number. This enables the receiver to search for the correct satellite signals
at the correct signal parameters. Correct initialization parameters enable the receiver to quickly
acquire signals.
For software that does not support initializing data (GSW3, GSWLT3, SiRFXTrac), attempting to
include initializing data may cause unpredictable results. Do not set the initialize-data bit in the
ResetCfg word.

C). Set DGPS Port ID: 102 Set PORT B parameters for DGPS input
This command is used to control the serial port used to receive RTCM differential corrections.
Differential receivers may output corrections using different communication parameters. If a
DGPS receiver is used that has different communication parameters, use this command to allow
the receiver to correctly decode the data. When a valid message is received, the parameters are
stored in battery-backed SRAM and the receiver restarts using the saved parameters.

command message, standard NMEA messages may be polled once, or setup for periodic output.
Checksums may also be enabled or disabled depending on the needs of the receiving program.
NMEA message settings are saved in battery-backed memory for each entry when the message
