1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 CAUTIONS CAUTION The GPS system is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. Although the GPS 15 is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted, and therefore become unsafe. Use these products at your own risk. To reduce the risk, carefully review and understand all aspects of these Technical Specifications before using the GPS 15. When in actual use, carefu

1.2 LIMITED WARRANTY This GARMIN product is warranted to be free from defects in materials or workmanship for one year from the date of purchase. Within this period, GARMIN will at its sole option, repair or replace any components that fail in normal use. Such repairs or replacement will be made at no charge to the customer for parts or labor, provided that the customer shall be responsible for any transportation cost. This warranty does not cover failures due to abuse, misuse, accident or un

1.3 OVERVIEW The GPS 15 is part of GARMIN’s latest generation of GPS sensor boards designed for a broad spectrum of OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) system applications. Based on the proven technology found in other GARMIN 12-channel GPS receivers, the GPS 15 will track up to 12 satellites at a time while providing fast time-to-first-fix, one-second navigation updates and low power consumption. Its far-reaching capabilities meet the sensitivity requirements of land navigation as well as th

2 PINOUT 2.1 DESCRIPTION The GPS 15-F utilizes a six-pin LIF connector. The GPS 15-W utilizes a six-pin JST connector with mating wire harness included. Table 1. Signal/Wire Descriptions GPS 15 Signal Name Description Pin # 1 BACKUP POWER This input provides external power to maintain the battery-backed SRAM and real-time clock. This enables the user to provide backup power if needed for longer than the optional on-board backup battery will provide (roughly 21 days). Input voltage must be bet

3 SOFTWARE INTERFACE The GPS 15 interface protocol design on COM 1 is based on the National Marine Electronics Association’s NMEA 0183 ASCII interface specification. This standard is fully defined in “NMEA 0183, Version 3.0” (copies may be obtained from NMEA, www.nmea.org). The GPS 15 interface protocol, in addition to transmitting navigation information as defined by NMEA˚0183, transmits additional information using the convention of GARMIN proprietary sentences. The following sections describ

3.1.2 Sensor Configuration Information (PGRMC) The $PGRMC sentence provides information used to configure the GPS sensor’s operation. Configuration parameters are stored in non-volatile memory and retained between power cycles. The GPS sensor will echo this sentence upon its receipt if no errors are detected. If an error is detected, the echoed PGRMC sentence will contain the current default values. Current default values can also be obtained by sending $PGRMCE to the GPS sensor. $PGRMC,<1>,

3.2 TRANSMITTED NMEA 0183 SENTENCES The subsequent paragraphs define the sentences that can be transmitted on COM 1 by the GPS sensor. 3.2.1 Sentence Transmission Rate The GPS sensor will transmit each sentence (except where noted in particular transmitted sentence descriptions) at a one-second rate. The GPS sensor will transmit the following sentences contiguously. The contiguous transmission starts at a GPS second boundary. The information transmitted by the GPS sensor is referenced to the

3.2.2 Transmitted Time The GPS sensor outputs UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) date and time of day in the transmitted sentences. Prior to the initial position fix, the on-board clock provides the date and time of day. After the initial position fix, the date and time of day are calculated using GPS satellite information. The GPS sensor uses information obtained from the GPS satellites to add or delete UTC leap seconds and correct the transmitted date and time of day. The transmitted date and
