4.2 NMEA & FALCOM data message
MAMBO2 delivers data in the NMEA-0183 format.
Table 4
lists each of the NMEA
and FALCOM output messages supported by the MAMBO2 terminal and a brief
description.
For further description about NMEA, see related documents
[1].
The running firmware inside the device offers the possibility to switch on and off
each protocol that is listed in 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 graphically representation of the device location.
