Note
:

or “GP”. Although “IN” is more correct in the context of a GNSS aided inertial navigation system,
some third party software applications may accept only
“GP”.
Use the MV-POSView Controller program to set the system to output one or more of these sentences, as
well as to set the output frequency of these sentences.
Note
: System performance may degrade if multiple ports are configured for high rate output
simultaneously.
Note
: $PASHR and $PASHR-TSS are mutually exclusive, as are $PRDID and $PRDID-TSS.
