HEX code to put GPS PA1010 in RMC mode?

Post by microguy »

Could someone please send me the hex values (including checksum) to transmit via I2C to an Adafruit PA1010 GPS module to set it for only the RMC mode? That's the only mode I need. I can send data ok via I2C (serial not an option), but I've no success with various combinations and checksums found in docs and forums. I have sent many set-up sentences and none have worked. I never get an acknowledgment message from the PA1010 GPS module via I2C. I think my $PMTK... message is incorrect and I don't know how to correct it. Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you. --Jon

According to page 22 of the datasheet "When inputting the commend $PMTK353,1,0,0,0,0*2A : $GNRMC will change to $GPRMC (for GPS).
