| #115017 | Is the NMEA2000 protocol supported by your GPS library ? |
| No, at this moment we only support NMEA0183 and PVT protocols. Unlike NMEA0183, the NMEA2000 is implemented on the CAN (Controller Area Network) protocol, and NMEA2000 devices are not connected to a serial or USB port. ... | |

| #115018 | My GPS is attached to the PC using a datacombiner. The information from my echosounder is interferencing with my GPS, what can i do? |
| Some echosounders forward positions from a connected GPS, if no GPS is connected they sometimes send invalid lat/lon information. To avoid this, you can set a talker ID, so that only the information from your GPS is used. Below is the VB code to do this: objGps.TalkerID = "GP" ... | |

| #115019 | I am using a CSI DGPS device, but the GGA output is more precise (more digits) then the GLL, how can i force the toolkit to use GGA? |
| Using the 'Filter' property of the 'Gps' object, you can specify which NMEA0183 sentences will be decoded and which not. Please refer to the online manual for more information. ... | |

| #115090 | Can your software process NMEA0183 data from internet or stored in files ? |
| Yes. You can decode NMEA0183 data from a stream, such as a socket or file. For more information on this, please have a look at the Parse function. ... | |

| #110030 | My GPS outputs data at 9600bps, is this speed supported ? |
| The recommended baudrate for NMEA0183 is 4800bps. These days, some GPS units are also using 9600bps. The toolkit does support all standard bitrates supported by serial ports, so any bitrate can be used. ... | |

| #325025 | Is it possible to use this software with a DGPS system ? |
| Sure, as long as there is a NMEA-0183 output available, the DGPS system can be used with our software. ... | |

| #115060 | When should I enable the CRC Check function of your toolkit ? |
| You can always use the CRC function of the toolkit, even if your GPS device does not send CRC values. The toolkit will autodetect this and ignore this function. When using CRC it should not be possible to get invalid data from the GPS device, because when there is an error in the recei ... | |

| #115070 | What is the precision of the toolkit when reading positions from NMEA strings ? |
| The toolkit processes up to 5 digits, like the example below when parsing NMEA data, which is a precision of 6 centimeters. If your device outputs less digits, of course it will be less precise, 3 digits should suffice when using GPS, for RTK/DGPS 5 digits are recommended. $GPRMC,213402, ... | |
