NMEA Data Formats
The PCS can be configured to use any number of the five COM ports to output data using the National
Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) 0183 format at rates up to 50 Hz. POS MV makes twelve
sentence formats available.
1. $xxGGA: global system position fix data
2. $xxGGK: time, position, position type and DOP values
3. $xxHDT: heading - true data
4. $xxVTG: course over ground and ground speed data
5. $xxGST: GNSS pseudorange noise statistics
6. $xxRMC:
7. a) $PASHR:
attitude
data
b) $PASHR-TSS: attitude data (TSS indicates the use of the TSS standard instead of the Tait-
Bryan standard, see page 2-29 for a description)
