Report Packet 0x42: Single-precision Position Fix
This packet provides current GPS position fix in XYZ ECEF coordinates. If the I/O
"position" option is set to "XYZ ECEF" and the I/O "Precision-of-Position output" is set
to single-precision, then the GPS receiver sends this packet each time a fix is computed
or in response to packet 0x37. The data format is shown below. The time-of-fix is in
GPS or UTC as selected by the I/O "timing" option in packet 0x35. Packet 0x83 provides
a double-precision version of this information.
Report Packet 0x43: Velocity Fix, XYZ ECEF
This packet provides current GPS velocity fix in XYZ ECEF coordinates. If the I/O
"velocity" option (packet 0x35) is set to "XYZ ECEF," then the GPS receiver sends this
packet each time a fix is computed or in response to packet 0x37. The data format is
shown below. The time-of-fix is in GPS or UTC as selected by the I/O "timing" option.
Report Packet 0x45: Software Version Information
This packet provides information about the version of firmware running on the GPS
receiver. The receiver sends this packet after power-on, reset, and in response to
packet 0x1F.
