 +=======NMEA Protocol=======
 +NMEA 0183 (or NMEA for short) is a combined electrical and data specification for communication between marine electronics and also, more generally, GPS receivers.
 +
 +The NMEA 0183 protocol is a means by which marine instruments and also most GPS receivers can communicate with each other. It has been defined by, and is controlled by, the US based National Marine Electronics Association.
 +
 +The 0183 standard, uses a simple serial protocol transmitting a "sentence" from one "talker" to one or more "listeners".
 +
 +See Wikipedia: [[wp>NMEA]]

 +
 +**Waypoint Arrival Alarm**
 +
 +
 +This sentence is generated by some units to indicate the Status of arrival (entering the
 +arrival circle, or passing the perpendicular of the course line) at the destination waypoint.
 +<code>

 +
 +**GPS Almanac Data**
 +
 +
 +A set of sentences transmitted by some Garmin units in response
 +to a received $PGRMO,GPALM,1 sentence. It can also be received by
 +some GPS units (eg. Garmin GPS 16 and GPS 17) to initialize the
 +stored almanac information in the unit.
 +
 +Example 1: $GPALM,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,*CC

 +====$GPAPB====
 +
 +**Autopilot format "B"**
 +
 +
 +This sentence is sent by some
 +GPS receivers to allow them to be used to control an autopilot unit.
 +This sentence is commonly used by autopilots and contains navigation
 +receiver warning flag status, cross-track-error, waypoint arrival
 +status, initial bearing from origin waypoint to the destination,
 +continuous bearing from present position to destination and
 +recommended heading-to-steer to destination waypoint for the active
 +navigation leg of the journey.
 +
 +Note: Some autopilots, Robertson in particular, misinterpret
 +"bearing from origin to destination" as "bearing from present position
 +to destination".  This is likely due to the difference between the APB
 +sentence and the APA sentence. for the APA sentence this would be the
 +correct thing to do for the data in the same field.  APA only differs
 +from APB in this one field and APA leaves off the last two fields
 +where this distinction is clearly spelled out.  This will result in
 +poor performance if the boat is sufficiently off-course that the two
 +bearings are different.
 +
 +<code>
 +  $GPAPB,A,A,0.10,R,N,V,V,011,M,DEST,011,M,011,M*82
 +
 +where:
 +    APB     Autopilot format B
 +    A       Loran-C blink/SNR warning, general warning
 +    A       Loran-C cycle warning
 +    0.10    cross-track error distance
 +    R       steer Right to correct (or L for Left)
 +    N       cross-track error units - nautical miles (K for kilometers)
 +    V       arrival alarm - circle
 +    V       arrival alarm - perpendicular
 +    011,M   magnetic bearing, origin to destination
 +    DEST    destination waypoint ID
 +    011,M   magnetic bearing, present position to destination
 +    011,M   magnetic heading to steer (bearings could True as 033,T)
 +</code>
 +
 +
 +====$GPBOD====
 +
 +**Bearing Origin to Destination**
 +<code>
 +eg.  BOD,045.,T,023.,M,DEST,START
 +           045.,T       bearing 045 degrees True from "START" to "DEST"
 +           023.,M       breaing 023 degrees Magnetic from "START" to "DEST"
 +           DEST         destination waypoint ID
 +           START        origin waypoint ID
 +
 +</code>
 +
 +Example 1: $GPBOD,099.3,T,105.6,M,POINTB,*01\\
 +Waypoint ID: "POINTB" Bearing 99.3 True, 105.6 Magnetic \\
 +This sentence is transmitted in the GOTO mode, without an active route on your GPS.
 +WARNING: this is the bearing from the moment you press enter in the GOTO
 +page to the destination waypoint and is NOT updated dynamically!
 +To update the information, (current bearing to waypoint), you will have to press enter in the GOTO page again.
 +
 +Example 2: $GPBOD,097.0,T,103.2,M,POINTB,POINTA*52\\
 +This sentence is transmitted when a route is active. It contains the active leg information: origin waypoint "POINTA" and destination waypoint "POINTB", bearing between the two points 97.0 True, 103.2 Magnetic. It does NOT display the bearing from current location to destination waypoint!
 +WARNING Again this information does not change until you are on the next leg of the route. (The bearing from POINTA to POINTB does not change during the time you are on this leg.)
