Garmin GPS 10 Deluxe Technical Specifications - Page 23

APPENDIX B: BINARY PHASE OUTPUT FORMAT In binary phase output mode, GPS 10 series products will transmit two types of packets once per second. One record contains primarily post-process information such as position and velocity information. The second record contains receiver measurement information. For the GPS 10, the records are sent at a default baud rate of 9600 baud, 8 data bits, and no parity. To turn these records on, use the $PGRMC1 NMEA sentence as described in Section 3.1.4. Refer to the Garmin Device Interface Specification for details on how to form and parse Garmin packets. At the time of this printing, these specs are available from the technical suppport section of our Web site at http://www.garmin.com/support/commProtocol.html. For the GPS 10, the two records must be enabled independently by commands to the unit. The ID of each command should be 10 decimal to signify that the record is a command. The data portion of the packet should be one of the following: Function Position Record On Position Record Off Receiver Measurement Record On Receiver Measurement Record Off Command (base 10) 49 50 110 111 Note that the satellite data information is also enabled when the position record is enabled. Records sent over RS232 begin with a delimiter byte (10 hex). The second byte identifies the record type (33 hex for a position record, 34 hex for a receiver measurement and 72 hex for a satellite data record). The third byte indicates the size of the data. The fourth byte is the first byte of data. The data is then followed by a checksum byte, a delimiter byte (10 hex), and an end-of-transmission character (03 hex). Additionally, any DLEs (0x10) that appear between the delimeters are escaped with a second DLE. There is sample code at the end of this section that will strip off the DLEs and ETXs. RS232 Packet: - 0x10 (DLE is first byte) - 0x## (Record ID - single byte) - 0x## (Number of data bytes - single byte) - data bytes (See descriptions below) - 0x## (2's complement of the arithmetic sum of the bytes between the delimiters) - 0x10 (DLE) - 0x03 (ETX is last byte) USB packets contain only the record ID, size, and data payload. Refer to the Garmin Device Interface Specification for details on how to form and parse Garmin USB packets. The document is located on the Garmin Web site at http://www.garmin.com/support/ commProtocol.html. USB Packet: - 0x## (Record ID - single byte) - 0x## (Number of data bytes - single byte) - data bytes (See descriptions below) The data bytes of each packet contain the record specified by the record ID. A description of each record follows. 190-00516-00 GPS 10 Technical Specifications Page 19 Rev. B
