100 – SetSerialPort
This command message is used to set the protocol (SiRF binary or NMEA)
and/or the communication parameters (baud rate). Generally, this
command is used to switch the module back to SiRF binary protocol mode
where a more extensive command message set is available. When a valid
message is received, the parameters are stored in battery-backed SRAM
and the receiver restarts using the saved parameters.
Figure 18 contains the values for the following example:
Switch to SiRF binary protocol at 9600,8,N,1
$PSRF100,0,9600,8,1,0*0C
For details on the SiRF binary protocol, please refer to SiRF’s Binary
Protocol Reference Manual.

1. SiRF protocol is only valid for 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity.
2. Default settings are NMEA protocol using 9,600 baud, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits and no
parity.

101 – NavigationInitialization
This command is used to initialize the receiver with the current position (in
X, Y, Z coordinates), clock offset, and time, enabling a faster fix. Increased
receiver sensitivity and the removal of Selective Availability (SA) have made
this unneccessary. The command is retained for its ability to reset the
module, but the initialization fields are no longer supported.

1. Use 0 for the last saved value if available. If this is unavailable, a default value of
96000 is used.
