At the time of this printing, this document is located on the Garmin Web site at: www.garmin.com/support/commProtocol.html. See Appendix B: Garmin Binary Output Format for additional information concerning access to binary data from the GPS 20x. Using Spanner (an application that can provide NMEA output via a virtual COM port), the GPS 20x can send NMEA 0183 output sentences. Spanner is available for free on the Garmin web site. To download the software, start at www.garmin.com/oem, select the GPS 20x, and then select Updates & Downloads. Available NMEA 0183 output sentences include GPGGA, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPRMC, and PGRMT (Garmin proprietary sentence).
