To see the Time Output Format, enter:
F11<CR>
XL-GPS responds:
F11 DDD:HH:MM:SS.mmmQ<CR><LF>
To remove the day, hour, minute, second, microsecond, or a character from the time output format (other
than the ASCII <SOH> <CR> or <LF> characters), enter the following string replacing the character you
want to remove with an “X”:
F11<SEP>DDD:HH:MM:SS.mmmQ<CR>
F11 does not control the <SOH>, <CR>, or <LF> in the F8 and F9 output strings. <SEP> is only one
character wide, either a space, comma or tab. Any character other than an upper case “X” in a numeric
position does not affect the output of that position. The colons (:) or decimal point (.), however, may be
replaced with any single ASCII character except null (Hex 00), carriage return, or line feed.
For example, to check the current F11 settings, enter:
F11<CR>
XL-GPS replies:
F11 DDD:HH:MM:SS.mmmQ<CR><LF>
Then apply a new time output format by entering, for example:
F11 XXXXXXXMMMSSS.mmmX<CR>
XL-GPS responds:
OK<CR><LF>
With the above settings, F8 displays:
<SOH>12M34S<CR><LF>
With the above settings, F9 displays:
<SOH>12M34S.567<CR><LF>
The new time format above suppresses the days, the first colon, and hours. It replaces the second and
third colons with “M” and “S”, respectively. And it suppresses the time quality character.
If you end the first part of a format string early with a carriage return, the remaining un-typed characters
are enabled and assume their default values. For example, if you enter:
F11<TAB>XXX|<CR>
