A.17.39 Report Packet 0x59
Normally the GPS receiver selects only healthy satellites (based on transmitted values in
the ephemeris and almanac) which satisfy all mask values, for use in the position solution.
This packet allows you to override the internal logic and force the receiver to either
unconditionally disable a particular satellite or to ignore a bad health flag. The GPS
receiver returns Packet 0x59 for operation modes 3 and 6 only. The data format is shown
below.
This information is not held in battery-backed memory. At power-on and after a reset, the
default values are set for all satellites.
