Notes
The magnetic variation provided in field 5 is calculated based on the current date and position provided by the PB200 internal GPS, using the World Magnetic Model for 2005.
Prior to the internal GPS achieving a position fix, the last known Variation and Age of Service (fields 5 and 4, respectively) are retrieved from EEPROM memory and supplied in
these fields.
