NMEA Sentences

Descriptions of the NMEA Sentences shown on the GNSS

control panel menu follow.

„

RMC - Recommended Minimum Specific GNSS Data.

Example of data output: $GPRMC,045824.00,A,4127.31350

,N,11202.79015,W,00.03,022.9,160914,,,A*4C.

The RMC message contains the time, date, position,

course and speed data provided by the GNSS navigation

receiver.

„

VTG - Course over Ground & Ground Speed. The VTG

message provides actual course (CoG) and speed (SoG)

relative to the ground.

„

GGA – Global Positioning System Fix Data. The GGA

message outputs time, position and fix related data. The

fix is based on all available GNSS. This message is similar

to the GNS – GNSS Fix Data GNS message.

„

GSA – GNSS DOP and Active Satellites. The GSA message

contains the GNSS receiver’s operating mode, satellites

used for calculation of the PVT data transmitted by the

GGA message and DOP values. The GPS satellites are

identified by their PRN, which range from 1 to 32. The

WAAS system has numbers 33 to 64 to identify its satellites.

The numbers 65 to 95 are used for GLONASS satellites (64

+ satellite slot number).

„

GSV – GNSS Satellites In View. The GSV message identifies

the number of satellites (SV) in view, satellites’ PRN

numbers, elevation, azimuth and SNR value. One GSV

message may contain data for one to four satellites.

If more than 4 satellites are in view then additional

GSV messages will be generated. Total number of

messages being transmitted and the number of the

current message are indicated in the first two fields of

the message. If multiple GPS, GLONASS, etc. satellites

are in view, then separate GSV messages with Talker ID

GP for GPS satellites in view, GL for GLONASS and GA for

GALILEO satellites will be generated.

„

GLL – Geographic Position – Latitude/Longitude. The

GLL message contains the latitude and longitude of the

present position, the time of the position fix and the status.
