Report Packet 0x5F-11: EEPROM Segment Status

The receiver sends this packet in response to command packet 0x3F-11. This packet
contains the status of all EEPROM segments:

A zero in the status bit indicates that the segment contents are valid.

A one in the status bit indicates that the segment contents were found to be
corrupt and had to be reverted to their factory default values.

Bits 3-9 are used to generate the minor alarm (bit 10) in packet 0x8F-AC.

Report Packet 0x6D: Satellite Selection List

This packet provides a list of satellites used for position or time-only fixes by the GPS
receiver. The packet also provides the PDOP, HDOP, VDOP and TDOP of that set and
provides the current mode (automatic or manual, 3-D or 2-D, Over-Determined Clock
mode, etc.). This packet has variable length equal to 17+nsvs where "nsvs" is the
number of satellites used in the solution. If an SV is rejected for use by the T-RAIM
algorithm then the SV PRN value will be negative.

The GPS receiver sends this packet in response to packet 0x24 or automatically. The
data format is shown below.
