Note: The USB driver is a new one and different from Rikaline GPS-6010 series cable GPS. 3. When you connect your PDA to GPS-6017, you need an optional cable. Check the e mark (FCC) for safety and ensure the cigarette adapter with correct model number to avoid damaging your PDA.
It communicates with other electronic utilities via compatible dual-channel through RS-232 or TTL and saves critical satellite data by built–in backup memory. With low power consumption, the GPS-6017 tracks up to 12 satellites at a time, re-acquires satellite signals in 100 ms and updates position data every second.

2. Operational characteristics 2.1 Initialization As soon as the initial self-test is complete, the GPS-6017 begins the process of satellite acquisition and tracking automatically. Under normal circumstances, it takes approximately 45 seconds to achieve a position fix, 38 seconds if ephemeris data is known. After a position fix has been calculated, information about valid position, velocity and time is transmitted over the output channel.

Version 2.1, RTCM Special Committee No.104). A.1 NMEA Transmitted Messages The GPS-6017 supported by SiRF Technology Inc. also outputs data in NMEA-0183 format as defined by the National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA), Standard. The default communication parameters for NMEA output are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, stop bit, and no parity.

The default communication parameters for DGPS Input are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, stop bit, and no parity. Position accuracy of less than 5 meters can be achieved with the GPS-6017 by using Differential GPS (DGPS) real-time pseudo-range correction data in RTCM SC-104 format, with message types 1, 5, or 9. As using DGPS receiver with different communication parameters, GPS-6017 may decode the data correctly to generate accurate messages and save them in battery-back SRAM for later computing.
