Proprietary and Confidential

PRELIMINARY - DRAFT

The

$PAMTC,EN,L command allows the settings to be reloaded from EEPROM to

RAM without cycling power to the unit. This can be used to discard any changes made

to the working copy in RAM, and restore the saved settings as though the unit had been

turned off and then back on again.

The

$PAMTC,EN,LD command loads the factory default settings from ROM memory

into RAM memory.

Note that the $PAMTC,ERST command (see separate description) differs from the

$PAMTC,EN,LD command in that $PAMTC,ERST will initialize all of user EEPROM

memory to its factory default settings. This includes settings unrelated to the selection of

transmitted sentences.

The above paragraphs are summarized in the below figure.

The

$PAMTC,EN,Q command provides a query function to allow reading the current

settings from the working copy in RAM. The reply to the $PAMTC,EN,Q command is a

series of sentences with the following format:

$PAMTR,EN,<1>,<2>,<3>,<4>,<5>*hh

where

<1> = Total number of $PAMTR,EN sentences in the reply

<2> = Sentence number

<3> = Sentence ID (GGA, GLL, GSA, GSV, HDG, MDA, MWD, MWVR,

MWVT, RMC, VTG, VWR, VWT, or XDR)

<4> = 0 or 1 (0=disabled, 1=enabled)
<5> = Transmission interval (tenths of a second)

For example, a unit programmed with only the factory default settings would provide the

following as a reply to the $PAMTC,EN,Q command:
