These AT commands are supported on gpsOne equipped CDMA modems. GpsOne is a wireless-assisted
hybrid solution that utilizes both GPS and base-station trilateration to determine the mobile positions in more
covered situations other than GPS alone.

The following includes several set-up commands (+WPDST, +WPDOM, +WPDDD, +WPDFR, +WPDPL), the
start-session command (+WPDSS), the end-session command (+WPDES), and responses. Setup
commands are not required in most cases (as defaults will be provided) before the start-session commands.

Note that these commands are preliminary. Changes may be made when carrier plans for location services
are more readily available.

Position Determination Session Type +WPDST

Description: This command sets and returns the PD session type.

Values:

<type>

0: session to provide the last position info available
1: session to provide single-shot fix
2: tracking mode independent fixes – session to provide continuous independent
position fixes
3: tracking mode – session to provide continuous position fixes
4: data download – session to download ephemeris/almanac data only to minimize
delays to obtain future fixes

Note that when a tracking mode is requested (continuous position fixes) and the TCP/IP
transport layer is used, the position fixes will not be retrieved until the data call ends. Only
the last 10 position fixes will be presented.

Syntax:
