0x4C Report Packet 4C

Operating Parameters Report

This packet provides several operating parameter values of the receiver. The receiver sends this packet in response to packet 2C. The data string is four SINGLE values. The dynamics code indicates the expected vehicle dynamics and is used to assist the initial solution. The elevation angle mask determines the lowest angle at which the receiver tries to track a satellite. The signal level mask sets the required signal level for a satellite to be used for position fixes.

The PDOP mask sets the maximum PDOP with which position fixes are calculated. The PDOP switch sets the threshold for automatic 3- D/2-D mode. If 4 or more satellites are available and the resulting PDOP is not greater than the PDOP mask value, then 3-dimensional fixes are calculated. This information is stored in non-volatile memory.
