CR23X/CR10X Programs
A.1
Programming
Program instruction 15 (P15) is used to read the NEMA $GPGGA string of
time and position data.
Each iteration of P15 can either read the numeric fields
or read everything.
When reading the numeric fields, such as time, latitude,
longitude and elevation, P15 requires non-numeric delimiters between data
points.
The only available format of GPS data with delimiters is the NMEA
0183 format.
Program instruction 15 (P15) reads serial data and discards non-
numeric values.
All non-numeric values act as delimiters between numbers,
and decimal points can also act as delimiters.
P15 can be used to import
everything in the string, character by character, and convert it to the decimal
equivalent.
The decimal equivalent method is seldom used, and only when the
general area (hemisphere) is not known.
A.1.1
Program Execution Interval
When the PPS signal is used to trigger the read data function (P15), the
program table execution interval does not matter.
Otherwise the timing
between the Garmin16-HVS output and the datalogger read must be
considered.
Generally the execution interval can not be less than 2 seconds
when the PPS signal is not used.
A.1.2
Reading GPS Data
Table A-1 is a sample CR23X P15 instruction for reading NMEA $GPGGA
data string.
The second parameter has two dashes indicating data buffering has
been turned off.
The CR10X does not have the data buffering option.
