  • Page 2: Product Description

    Product Description Product Description ER-506 GPS module features high sensitivity, low power and ultra small form factor. This GPS module is powered by SiRF Star IV, it can provide you with superior sensitivity and performance even in urban canyon and dense foliage environment. With SiRF CGEE (Client Generated Extended Ephemeris) technology, it predicts satellite positions for up to 3 days and delivers CGEE-start time of less than 15 seconds under most conditions, without any network assistance.

  • Page 12 ER-506 High Performance GPS Module ZDA - Time and Date This message is included only with systems which support a time-mark output pulse identified as "1PPS". Outputs the time associated with the current 1PPS pulse. Each message is output within a few hundred ms after the 1PPS pulse is output and tells the time of the pulse that just occurred.
  • Page 13 ER-506 High Performance GPS Module NMEA Input Command A). Set Serial Port ID: 100 Set PORTA parameters and protocol This command message is used to set the protocol (SiRF Binary, NMEA, or USER1) and/or the communication parameters (baud, data bits, stop bits, parity). Generally, this command would be used to switch the module back to SiRF Binary protocol mode where a more extensive command message set is available.
