104 – LLANavigationInitialization

This command is used to initialize the receiver with the current position 
(in lattitude, longitude and altitude 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.

Figure 23 contains the values for the following example:

$PSRF104,37.3875111,-121.97232,0,96000,237759,1946,12,1*07

Clear Memory – Clears all data in memory and resets the receiver 

back to factory defaults

105 – Development Data On / Off

Use this command to enable development data information if you are 
having trouble getting commands accepted. Invalid commands generate 
debug information that helps to determine the source of the command 
rejection. Common reasons for input command rejection are invalid 
checksum or parameter out of specified range.

Figure 25 contains the values for the following example:
1.  Debug On 

$PSRF105,1*3E

2.  Debug Off 

$PSRF105,0*3F

 
117 – System Turn Off

This message requests that the GPS receiver perform an orderly shutdown 
and switch to hibernate mode.
