Appendix A Software Protocol
The protocol of G-MR is designed base on NMEA(National Marine Electronics Association) 0183
ASCII format. The full protocol is defined in “NMEA 0183, Version 3.01”.
A.1 NMEA Transmitted Message
G-MR GPS receiver use MediaTek as the core, and output NMEA-0183 standard format message.
The default communication parameters for NMEA output are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, stop bit, and no
parity.
