4.2 NMEA data message
DISCO-B4 delivers data in the NMEA-0183 format. Table below lists the NMEA and
FALCOM output messages supported by the DISCO-B4 device and gives a brief
description for each protocol. For further description about these protocols, refer to
the related documents [1].
The running firmware inside the device offers the possibility to switch on and off
each protocol that is listed in the table below. As mentioned above the firmware
inside the device supports a lot of PFAL commands enabling full control of the
device. There are also PFAL commands which allow sending of these protocols via
SMS, TCP, Data call and e-mail. For example, the PFAL commands
"
PFAL,GSM.SMS.Send...
" and "
PFAL,GSM.Send.TCP...
" allow you to send an SMS
message to a user or a TCP packet to a TCP server to let him know the current
location, GPS state, UTC time, Date, Speed and Course over ground of the device.
The received SMS contents or TCP packet can then be forwarded to a map
software for graphical representation of the device location. When you install such
a device in a vehicle, you are then able to have always full control of the vehicle.
In this way you will know where your vehicle is, what is happening with your vehicle,
has your vehicle been moved without authorization from a park area, real time
vehicle movements and more. The TCP server developed by FALCOM called
"
Trace4You " has a lot of such features allowing you to have full control of your
vehicle, fleet and other assets.
NMEA Description
GGA Time, position and fix type data.
GLL Latitude, longitude, UTC time of position fix and status.
GSA GPS receiver operating mode, satellites used in the position solution and DOP values.
VTG The direction and the ground speed
GSV The number of GPS satellites in view, satellite ID numbers, elevation, azimuth and SNR values.
RMC Time, date, position, course and speed data.
FALCOM Description
IOP The status of the digital/analog inputs and output ports and battery voltage (if battery available)
GSM The GSM operator, reception, registration status, GSM field strength, area code and cell ID.
AREA The state (entered / remaining) of 32 areas/geofences - such as territory management, route
verification, prohibited locations, parking area and more.
3DP The state of the Motion Sensor (hardware option)
BIN User protocol including time, date, position, course and speed data in binary format (small sized -
only 21 characters).
