ZDA—PPS timing message (synchronized to PPS)
Outputs the time associated with the current 1 PPS pulse. Each message is output within a
few hundred ms after the 1 PPS pulse is output and tells the time of the pulse that just
occurred

Table B-10 contains the values for the following example:
$GPZDA,181813,14,10,2003,00,00*4F

NMEA Input Command

A.) Set Serial Port ID:100 Set PORTA parameters and protocol

This command message is used to set the protocol (SiRF Binary, NMEA, or USER1) and/or the
communication parameters (baud, data bits, stop bits, parity). Generally, this command is utilize to
switch the GPS module back to SiRF Binary protocol mode, where an extensive message commands
are readily available. In example, whenever users are interested in altering navigation parameters, a
valid message sent and is receive by the recipient module, the new parameters will be stored in
battery backed SRAM and then the receiver will restart using the saved parameters.
