    Appendix B Commands B.9 RESET Performs a hardware reset This command performs a hardware reset. Following a RESET command, the receiver initiates a cold- start boot up. Therefore, the receiver configuration reverts either to the factory default, if no user configuration was saved, or the last SAVECONFIG settings.
  • Page 89: Sbascontrol Set Sbas Test Mode And Prn

    Commands Appendix B B.10 SBASCONTROL Set SBAS test mode and PRN This command allows you to dictate how the receiver handles Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) corrections. The receiver automatically switches to Pseudorange Differential (RTCM or RTCA) or RTK if the appropriate corrections are received, regardless of the current setting. To enable the position solution corrections, you must issue the SBASCONTROL ENABLE command.
