3 GPS 20x SOFTWARE INTERFACE The GPS 20x transmits using the Garmin USB interface. The Garmin USB interface is discussed in the Garmin Device Interface Specification found in the Garmin Device Interface SDK located on the Garmin Web site at: www.garmin.com/support/commProtocol.html. You can configure the GPS 20x to transmit binary data information over the USB interface. Refer to Appendix B: Garmin Binary Output Format. 3.1 TRANSMITTED NMEA 0183 SENTENCES The following paragraphs define

3.1.2 Transmitted Time The GPS sensor outputs Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) date and time of day in the transmitted sentences. Before 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 and are synchronized with the measurement pulse output. The GPS sensor uses information obtained from the GPS satellites to add or delete UTC leap seconds and correct the tr
