[0xA5] Longitude
Help > Sensor Types > [0xA5] Longitude

         The return value is a 4-byte wide value that stores longitude similarly to NMEA text format “dddMM.mmmm,E|W” (NMEA requires 12 bytes). WGS84 geodetic datum is expected.

 

[dddd.dddd.s1MM.MMMM.00mm.mmmm.mmmm.mmmm]

 

bit: 0…13              Decimal fraction part of minutes.

bit: 14…15             00.

bit: 16…21             Integer part of minutes.

bit: 22                   1.

bit: 23                   Sign bit. 1 specifies West, 0 specifies East.

bit: 24…31             Degrees.

 

Example: E 15°22.1780' = 15.369633° = NMEA ”1522.1780,E” is 0x0F5606F4.

 

Value 0xFF?????? specifies a sensor error. Conversion to the decimal degrees is d + M.m / 60.

 

         FRC 4-byte: FRC return value equals unmodified return value.
