# Each section may have the following capabilities
#
# type	       = "engine", "vendor", or "device"
# date         = date of submission
# submitter    = email of submitter, name may need quoting for RFC822
# description  = Human-readable description of this item
# packaging    = A device's form factor
# techdoc      = URL to technical documentation, or at least a spec sheet
# vendor_site  = URL of a vendor site
# vendor       = vendor name
# eval_unit    = Which GPSD devs have one for testing (list)
# engine       = GPS chipset (may reference another section)
# subtype      = engine subtype or firmware revision level
# interfaces   = interface types: USB, RS232, Bluetooth, CF, TTL. May be a list.
# usbchip      = USB I/O chipset
# pps	       = supports pulse-per-second precision time reporting
# noconfigure  = can be bricked by baud-rate changes (requires -b option)
# tested       = last gpsd tested, or "regression" if we have a test load
# nmea	       = NMEA version this emits, if known
# notes	       = Miscellaneous notes on this item.  To be interpreted as HTML.
# rating       = excellent, good, fair, poor, broken, other
# discontinued = If present, product has been discontinued
#
# Capability strings:
#
# to_nmea     = if present, how to switch to NMEA 0183 mode from native binary

# Inheritance
#
# To inherit capabilities from a specified section, name the section in
# a "uses =" attribute. Use chains are followed recursively.  An attribute
# in a section overrides all attributes of the same name in all ancestor
# sections.
#
# Certain escapes in capability strings are translated:
#
# %b	- baud rate as ASCII numeral
#
# A string beginning with 0x is interpreted as a sequence of paired hex bytes,
# leading 0x not included.
#
# Comment lines led with "#%" are vendor section marks to be used when
# generating an HTML table from this file.  Each should consist of a vendor
# name.
#
# Further notes:
# * In the packaging feld, a "GPS mouse" is a standalone sensor in a
#   display-less case designed be used as an outbard peripheral.  An
#   "OEM module" is an un-cased circuit board with edge connectors; a
#   "chipset" is what it sounds like.
#   A "handset" is a standalone GPS with a display and human-usable
#   controls. A "handsfree" is a hands-free unit with display designed for 
#   mounting on a car windshield or boat dash.
# * In the rating field:
#    "excellent" - gpsd recognizes the GPS rapidly and reliably,
#		  reports are complete and correct.
#    "good" -- gpsd has minor problems or lag recognizing the device,
#	      but reports are complete and correct.
#    "fair" -- Reports have minor dropouts or problems, including occasional
#	      transient nonsense values.
#    "poor" -- Reports frequently have values that are wrong or nonsense.
#    "broken" -- gpsd frequently fails to recognize the device at all.
#    "other -- See Technical Notes.

uses = GenericSiRF
tested = 2.34
rating = good
logs = uBlox-sirf1.log
notes = uBlox-sirf1.log was made from a device with uBlox firmware and 
      may not be typical of SirF-1 chips.

[SiRF-2]

     pharos-360.log, tn200-all.log, tn200.log, tn204.log
notes = The bu* logs are in native binary format; the Haicom, Holux, Pharos, 
      and TripNav logs in NMEA. NMEA starts with GGA and ends with RMC. The
      tn204 NMEA looks remarkably like older Garmin cruft and may be emulating 
      one, including the split reporting cycle.
