Last night i tried using the NMEA protocol and noticed only the GGA, GSV and RMC strings were outputted. We know that there are several more strings that most GPSs' output by default. How do i configure FG to output these strings?

I know that NMEA is a configurable protocol allowing manufacturers to add proprietary strings. Is this facility provided in FG? If yes where and how can i configure the strings in the NMEA protocol of FG?

One more question about NMEA. Does NMEA only specify ASCII strings or is it even possible to have binary mode communication to improve speed? I tried to download NMEA 0183 standards specification from the website www.nmea.org but they seem to be charging a huge sum for the download!?!?



As far as I know, NMEA is an ascii format. There isn't any runtime configurability right now, but if you want to hard code new strings, you can add them to src/Network/nmea.cxx
