Important Notice
Due to the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally lost. Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the Sierra Wireless modem are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, the Sierra Wireless modem should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or any other party, including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or received using the Sierra Wireless modem, or for failure of the Sierra Wireless modem to transmit or receive such data.
Safety and Hazards

Do not operate the Sierra Wireless modem in areas where cellular modems are not advised without proper device certifications. These areas include environments where cellular radio can interfere such as explosive atmospheres, medical equipment, or any other equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. The Sierra Wireless modem can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment. Do not operate the Sierra Wireless modem in any aircraft, whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the Sierra Wireless modem MUST BE POWERED OFF. When operating, the Sierra Wireless modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems.
Note: Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and the door is open. Sierra Wireless modems may be used at this time.
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate the Sierra Wireless modem while in control of a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operators control and operation of that vehicle. In some states and provinces, operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offence.

The default configuration used by the application is:

Configuration Hardware configuration NMEA mode Starting Mode Factory default value Refer to document [5] for complete information. Also refer to the command +GPSINIT for more information. UART number 1 All supported NMEA frames are displayed 1 second NMEA frames update HOT start with all previous NV stored data. How to change it? AT+GPSINIT command
AT+GPSNMEA command AT+GPSSTART command
To start the Location Services for the first time, if you dont use the default settings you must specify your settings through the advanced AT commands described in this document. For more information about factory default settings, please refer to +GPSSAVE AT command.

2.3.2.
AT command sequence
The AT command sequence to type to start receiving NMEA frames on the specified port is: 1. AT+WOPEN=1 (activate AT command extension set. Needed only the first time). 2. AT+GPSINIT=<hw> (only if the Factory default hardware configuration must be changed, specifies the GPS receiver hardware type or the hardware configuration on which the application will be run). 3. AT+GPSNMEA=<output> (only if the Factory default configuration should be changed) 4. AT+GPSSTART (Starts the GPS). After few seconds, NMEA frames will be received every second on the requested port. You can then type AT+GPSSAVE=1 to save the current setting configured through AT commands (+GPSINIT, +GPSSTART, +GPSNMEA), and, make sure that the application automatically restarts to reach the same state with same settings when the Embedded Module is reset.

Restriction on use of Embedded Module AT commands Start-up time
The startup time is the duration between the +GPSSTART command and the +GPSEVSTART event. After the +GPSEVSTART event, the Location Service has been correctly started, GPS receiver hardware and software resources are activated, and GPS acquisition phase is starting. The startup time includes the GPS receiver firmware download time if applicable.
2.4.1.4.
Starting mode
Starting modes are used only for test purposes and allow start performance measurement. The Start mode parameter is specified for each start using the +GPSSTART AT command. Please refer to +GPSSTART AT command for more information. The following table describes minimum required data for each starting mode:
Starting mode Broadcasted Ephemeris X Approximate Time and Position X X Almanac Calibration Data X X X X

4. AT Command Syntax
This section describes the AT command format and the default value for their parameters.
4.1.
Example:
Command Line
Commands always start by the standard prefix AT+GPS and end with the <CR> character. Optional parameters are shown in brackets [ ].
AT+GPScmd=<Param1>[,<Param2>] <Param2> is optional. When the AT+GPScmd is executed without <Param2> the default value of <param2> is used. Default value is the last configured parameter or the last saved parameter value after the Embedded Module reset or factory default value if parameters were not saved. The factory default configuration can be changed with +GPSSAVE Command.
4.2.

Information Responses and Result Codes

If command syntax is incorrect, the "ERROR" string is returned. If command syntax is correct but transmitted with wrong parameters, the "+GPS ERROR: <Err>" string is returned with adequate error codes. Please refer to Location AT commands error codes description for more details about error code values. If the command line has been executed successfully, an "OK" string is returned.
Responses start and end with <CR><LF>.
In the following examples <CR> and <CR><LF> are intentionally.

Note: The unsolicited AT command responses are sent through the AT port.

5.2.1.
Command +GPSNMEA
Description
This AT command configures the NMEA frames flow, the output port and the NMEA sentences encode mask. The list of supported NMEA frames depends on the GPS receiver. Please refer to 2.4 for more details. Please refer to the State Machine and AT Commands Calls Requirements for more information about call state and transition mode.
Note: NMEA sentences are output as unsolicited AT command responses. In consequence, in case the output port is not dedicated but shared with AT commands, NMEA frames output will be suspended while an AT command is being processed, and resume once the AT command has returned. In case of significant delay, some NMEA sentences may be partially or totally lost.

Command +GPSSAVE
Description
The current setting is stored in FLASH memory as the new default settings when the command +GPSSAVE=1 is entered. All the parameters of +GPS AT commands are saved. These settings will be used after each Embedded Module reset as default configuration. If the user wants the application to retrieve the default factory configuration (refer to each AT command description), the command AT+GPSSAVE = 0 should be given and the Embedded Module should be reset. The application state (Please refer to State Machine for more information) is also saved as default configuration and used at the start (after the Embedded Module reset) to put the application in this state. This configuration is used for the automatic start. Please refer to Diagram for settings management for more information.

Command +GPSAID
Foreword
Intention has been to limit as much as possible the Location Library GPS Aiding Service AT commands changes while porting to SL808s gpsOne GPS solution. As a consequence some terminology may not be as accurate as it could be when considering gpsOne iso XM GPS solution. For example, Assistance data or Predicted Orbit data would have been more appropriate than Downloaded Extended Ephemeris as in gpsOne case those data are not only Ephemeris.
6.9.2.
Description
This AT command activates and configures the Aiding modes. Please refer to the State Machine and AT Commands Calls Requirements for more information about call state and transition mode.
6.9.2.1.
Downloaded Extended Ephemeris
DEE (Downloaded Extended Ephemeris) improves start-up GPS performance by employing Extended Ephemeris data. The Extended Ephemeris data should be downloaded from an Extended Ephemeris server and outlast a standard broadcast ephemeris. SL808xT gpsOne GPS solution supports DEE thru the gpsOne XTRA (XTRA for short) feature. In order to compute a position XTRA requires 1) XTRA servers that provide assistance data so called XTRA data and 2) the ability to acquire GPS satellites in order to compute a position (No Sattelites then NO Fix)

Rev 1.1
November 6, 2012

6.9.2.1.1.
Server and Assistance data download
Three servers are provided (URL set by default) so that the requests are load balanced. XTRA Servers and XTRA data are fully hosted by QC and provided as free service. XTRA Data is downloaded using an http get as a binary file that must be injected into the gpsOne GPS Engine using specific PDAPI function calls (Practically it appears that the XTRA data files are updated each day). Both bearer and communication socket management are encapsulated within SL808xT gpsOne XTRA assisted GPS,
6.9.2.1.2.
Assistance data validity
XTRA Data is valid for seven days.
6.9.2.1.3.
SL808x assisted GPS operation using XTRA
First, gpsOneXTRA feature must be enabled on the device. Any time a fix is requested, and XTRA is enabled, the device will do a check to determine if its assistance data is valid (XTRA data valid for 7 days once downloaded/injected). If it is valid, it uses the assistance data to compute the fix. If the data is not valid, the GPS Engine will send an event via a registered client event handler to download the assistance data. The assistance data is stored in the device EFS (CGPS_PE Folder in EFS Explorer) for later use. While the XTRA download/injection is in progress, the standalone fix will continue to be processed. If the XTRA download/injection fails, the standalone fix in progress may still return successful if satellites are acquired during the standalone search.

o o o o Anytime a fix is requested (assuming XTRA is enabled) the device will check validity of assistance data (XTRA data valid for 7 days once downloaded/injected). If it is valid, it uses the assistance data to compute the fix. If the data is not valid, the Location library will request to download the assistance data. The FW is capable to download the XTRA data thru an embedded client, Once the XTRA data is downloaded, it is injected into the GPS Engine and the assistance data flags is show that assistance data is valid (download and injection have been successful). The assistance data is stored in the device NV memory for later use. While the XTRA download/injection is in progress, the standalone fix will continue to be processed. If the XTRA download/injection fails, the standalone fix in progress may still return successful if satellites are acquired during the standalone search. Factory start (please refer to gps_startingMode_e) removes DEE file. To retrieve it, DEE file download should be requested once again. XTRA data file download started immediately (for example in GPS_INITIALIZED state). Download is always forced: same as dee_command=3 (Force download)

7. Asynchronous Events
The asynchronous events inform about Location Services events.
7.1.
Description
The following asynchronous events can be received as unsolicited responses: +GPSEVABORT: Following error detection, the Location Services are aborted and the application is stopped. After this event the application state is automatically changed to GPS_INITIALIZED. +GPSEVERROR: An error has been detected. Please refer to Location AT commands error codes for more details. The others events are associated to the following AT Commands described in this document: +GPSINIT, +GPSSTART, +GPSSTOP, +GPSSLEEP and +GPSRELEASE.
