Note: If no geoid is loaded, geoidal separation will be

reported as 0.

F11

Age

Time since last dGPS data was received, in seconds.

F12

ID

Reference station ID number (0000

– 1023).

In StarFire mode this is the StarFire satellite ID.

F13

Status

Navigational Status Indicator (see note below)

S = Safe.

C = Caution.

U = Unsafe.

V = Not Valid.

F14

*CRC

Checksum

The Navigational Status Indicator (F13) is determined by comparing the Horizontal
Position Error to the Selected Accuracy Level. The Selected Accuracy Level value
is configured by means of the [CONFIGGFA] command and is set to 10 meters by
default. The Horizontal Position Error is calculated as part of the RAIM data which
is reported in the [NMEARRE] message (not an NMEA message). For example, in
RTK mode, this error typically has a value of 0.1 meters.

 If the Horizontal Position Error is less than or equal to the Selected Accuracy Level,

the

Navigational Status Indicator is set to “S” (Safe).

 If the Horizontal Position Error is greater than or equal to the Selected Accuracy

Level, the Navigational Status Indicator is set to “U” (Unsafe).

 If there is no valid Horizontal Position Error (no RAIM data), the Navigational

Status Indicator is set to “C” (Caution).

 If there is no

Nav Solution, the Navigational Status Indicator is set to “V” (Not

Valid).
