Thank you for reply, I do this but in the $GPGGA Message, i don’t have the number of satellite. I think is because the input format of the cerulean tracker is $GPRMC. The $GPGGA format have blank number for satellite in output.

This is not my GPS the problem because in the original software i can get $GPGGA complete message format.

Thank you for help

We are unclear on the question; could you please elaborate?

What do you mean by “factice GPS number lock”?

The messages output by CeruleanTracker is synthesized internally based on the DVL and/or ROVL sensors. There are no satellites involved.

Thank you,

Hello, I only need the number of satellites used by the ROV locator to calculate the position of the ROV.

For exemple the GPS have 6 sat’s locked, and i need to take it on the processed $GPGGA Output.

On the $GPGGA string output from Cerulean tracker I don’t have this information, Only processed GPS position. On your documentation is written all other informations are dummy values.

I have second system in my company, MicronNav, On the string output $GPGGA, You have the processed position GPS+ROV and the number of sat’s used for this calculation.

Thank you

Lucas
