CAN Bus connection (default)
If you select the CAN Open stream, you may configure the CAN messages you need.
It is possible to set the Baud rate for the CAN bus and, for every message:
ID, DLC (1-8 bytes), Byte order (little endian, big endian),
Message frequency (1-5-10-25 Hz)
The information GPS09c Open may transmit in CAN are:
Altitude
Latitude
Longitude
Sats number
Pos Accuracy
Speed Accuracy
GPS Lateral acceleration
GPS Linear acceleration
GPS Heading
GPS Yaw rate
GPS Hour
GPS Min
GPS Sec
GPS Millisec
Year
Month

Unix Time
RS232 messages
If you set GPS09c Open in order to transmit an RS232 stream it will transmit the standard NMEA messages:
It is of course possible to set all the parameters related to the RS232 protocol
and the message transmitting frequency. The messages the system may transmit are:
NMEA DTM
NMEA GBS
NMEA GGA
NMEA GLL
NMEA GNS
NMEA GRS
NMEA GSA
NMEA GST
NMEA GSV
NMEA RLM
NMEA RMC
NMEA VLW
NMEA VTG
NMEA ZDA
NMEA TXT
The meaning of all these NMEA messages is described in www.nmea.org.
AiM CAN connection
In case you need to connect the device to an AiM CAN Network you have to select "AiM CAN Connection": the device
is automatically managed by the AiM dash or logger so you don’t need to configure anything else.
