ec2x.gnss#

The command is used to turn on GNSS function. Currently <mode> only supports turning on GNSS in Stand-alone Solution. When <fixcount> is 0, GNSS will fix position continuously, and it can be turned off via AT+QGPSEND. When <fixcount> is non-zero and reaches the specified value, GNSS will be turned off automatically.

When GNSS is turned on and <fixcount> is 0, GNSS fixes position continuously. In this case, GNSS can be turned off compulsorily via this command. When <fixcount> is non-zero, GNSS will be turned off automatically when the parameter reaches the specified value, and thus the command can be ignored.

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS

  • enable (bool):
  • mode (int): Default value is 1.
  • fix_max_time (int): Default value is 30.
  • fix_max_dist (int): Default value is 50.
  • fix_count (int): Default value is 0.
  • fix_rate (int): Default value is 1.

ec2x.gnss_assist_data_reset#

Delete assistance data to operate cold start, hot start and warm start of GNSS. The command can only be executed when GNSS is turned off. After deleting the assistance data via this command, cold start of GNSS can be enforced via AT+QGPS. Hot/warm start can also be performed if the corresponding conditions are satisfied.

  • 0 = Delete all assistance data except gpsOneXTRA data. Enforce cold start after starting GNSS.
  • 1 = Do not delete any data. Perform hot start if the conditions are permitted after starting GNSS.
  • 2 = Delete some related data. Perform warm start if the conditions are permitted after starting GNSS.
  • 3 = Delete the gpsOneXTRA assistance data injected into GNSS engine.

ec2x.gnss_assist_time#

This command can be used to inject gpsOneXTRA time to GNSS engine. Before using it, customers must enable gpsOneXTRA Assistance function via AT+QGPSXTRA=1 command.
