Remote Commands
For more information about using remote commands and queries, see Chapter 8.
SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT.
Several remote commands are available to enable the GPS Mode and retrieve GPS information.
These commands are for the SLAVE modem ONLY, which means the address field must be the
address of the Slave unit (e.g., 0021).
•
Note: When the GPS mode is enabled, the SLAVE modem's serial's Baud Rate is changed to 4800
to receive data from GP-320B. To go back to normal serial operation mode, disable the GPS Mode.
