  • Page 13 E). LLA Navigation lnitialization ID:104 Parameters required to start using Lat/Lon/Alt This command is used to initialize the module for a warm start, by providing current position (in Latitude, Longitude, Altitude coordinates), clock offset, and time. This enables the receiver to search for the correct satellite signals at the correct signal parameters. Correct initialization parameters will enable the receiver to acquire signals more quickly, and thus, will produce a faster navigational soution.
