Figure 4-22: GPS Test
The basic position and time information is displayed on the screen. On the screen, the Fix Type
notes if there are any corrections being applied, such as DGPS. When first going outside, give
it a few minutes to track, or lock onto satellites.
Pressing Strings will display the raw data strings that are outputted by the GPS (Figure 4-23)
as they scroll down the screen. The user may select this option to verify the GPS is outputting
the proper NMEA string format.
