2.10.3 GPS.resetMode(mode)
This module resets GPS controller in the same way as AT command: AT$GPSR. Input parameter
mode is a Python integer and can have the following values:
• 0 for Hardware reset
• 1 for Coldstart (No Almanac, No Ephemeris);
• 2 for Warmstart (No Ephemeris);
• 3 for Hotstart (with stored Almanac and Ephemeris).
Return value is a Python integer which is -1 if an error occurred otherwise is 1.
Example:
res = GPS.resetMode(1)
executes a cold restart of GPS controller, assigning return value to res.
2.10.4 GPS.getAntennaVoltage()
This module gets GPS antenna supply voltage in the same way as AT command: AT$GPSAV.
It has no input parameter.
Return value is a Python integer which represents antenna supply voltage in mV.
Example:
mV = GPS.getAntennaVoltage()
gets GPS antenna supply voltage, assigning return value to mV.
2.10.5 GPS.getAntennaCurrent()
This module gets GPS antenna current consumption in the same way as AT command: AT$GPSAI.
It has no input parameter.
Return value is a Python integer which represents antenna current consumption in mA.
Example:
mA = GPS.getAntennaCurrent()
gets GPS antenna current consumption, assigning return value to mA.
2.10.6 GPS.getActualPosition()
This module gets GPS last position information stored in the same way as with AT command:
AT$GPSACP. It has no input parameter.
