  • Page 5: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION 1.1 OVERVIEW The GM-X205 GPS Receiver is intended for use in a wide range of applications. The receiver simultaneously tracks up to twelve satellites, provides accurate satellite positioning data with fast time-to-first-fix (TTFF) and low power consumption. It is designed for high performance and maximum flexibility in a wide range of applications including mobile asset tracking, in-vehicle automotive guidance, location sensing, telematics and so on.
  • Page 6: Receiver Operation

    As soon as GPS signal is acquired and tracked, the GM-X205 will transmit valid navigation information through its serial interface. The navigation data contains following information:...

  • Page 39: Appendix B Default Values

    HDOP: 8 Receiver Operating Mode: Normal Mode (without 1PPS) Commands can be issued to the GM-X205 to change the settings of the receiver. The new settings will remain effective on next power-on as long as the on-board rechargeable backup battery is not discharged. After the backup battery is discharged, factory preset default settings will be used.
