NMEA-0183 Messages: Overview

This document provides an overview of NMEA-0183 messages that can be output from a GNSS receiver to external devices. It explains that the messages conform to NMEA-0183 version 3.01 format and contain data fields separated by commas and checksum values. The document also includes a table summarizing the various NMEA message types supported by the receiver, listing the message name, function, and page with more detailed information. It describes how to enable or disable individual NMEA messages using application files or software settings.

When NMEA-0183 output is enabled, a subset of NMEA-0183 messages can be output


to external instruments and equipment connected to the receiver serial ports. These
NMEA-0183 messages let external devices use selected data collected or computed by
the GNSS receiver.
All messages conform to the NMEA-0183 version 3.01 format. All begin with $ and end
with a carriage return and a line feed. Data fields follow comma (,) delimiters and are
variable in length. Null fields sQll follow comma (,) delimiters, but contain no
informaQon.
An asterisk (*) delimiter and checksum value follow the last field of data contained in
an NMEA-0183 message. The checksum is the 8-bit exclusive of all characters in the
message, including the commas between fields, but not including the $ and asterisk
delimiters. The hexadecimal result is converted to two ASCII characters (0–9, A–F). The
most significant character appears first.
The following table summarizes the set of NMEA messages supported by the receiver,
and shows the page that contains detailed informaQon about each message.

Message FuncAon
ADV PosiQon and satellite informaQon for RTK network operaQons
DTM Datum reference informaQon
GBS GNSS satellite fault detecQon (RAIM support)

PFUGDP A proprietary message containing informaQon about the type of
posiQoning system, posiQon, number of satellites and posiQon
staQsQcs
PTNL,AVR Time, yaw, Qlt, range, mode, PDOP, and number of SVs for Moving
Baseline RTK
PTNL,BPQ Base staQon posiQon and posiQon quality indicator
PTNL,DG L-band correcQons and beacon signal strength and related
informaQon
PTNL,GGK Time, posiQon, posiQon type, and DOP values
PTNL,PJK Time, posiQon, posiQon type, and DOP values
PTNL,PJT ProjecQon type

PTNL,VHD Heading InformaQon
RMC PosiQon, Velocity, and Time
ROT Rate of turn
VTG Actual track made good and speed over ground
ZDA UTC day, month, and year, and local Qme zone offset

To enable or disable the output of individual NMEA messages, do one of the following:
Create an applicaQon file in the ConfiguraQon Toolbox sofware that contains
NMEA output segngs and then send the file to the receiver.
Add NMEA outputs in the Serial outputs tab of the GPS Configurator sofware and
then apply the segngs.
Note – The posi/on output by the receiver is the Antenna Phase Center posi/on. You
may want to reduce this posi/on to a reference posi/on elsewhere. If so, you should
account for any /lt of the antenna in such a reduc/on. The se@ngs for the Antenna
Measurement Method and Antenna Height are not applied to the posi/on outputs.
