NAME

       gpssubframe - tool to dump subframe sentences from gpsd

SYNOPSIS

       gpssubframe [OPTIONS] [server[:port[:device]]]

       gpssubframe -h

       gpssubframe -V

DESCRIPTION

       gpssubframe is a tool to connect to gpsd and dump decoded subframe data to stdout. This is only useful if
       your GNSS receiver can output GPS subframe messages, and is configured to do so. A working knowledge of
       IS-GPS-200 is also required. Keep your copy close at hand.

       gpssubframe does not require root privileges, but will run fine as root. It can be run concurrently with
       other tools connecting to the local gpsd without causing problems.

       The program will accumulate subframe messages and output them by GPS satellite number on exit. By default
       the program never exits unless the user selects the number of seconds to run or number of messages to
       capture.

       By default gpssubframe connects to a gpsd running on the local host. Optionally a host, TCP/IP port
       number and remote device can be given.

OPTIONS

       -?, -h, --help
           -Print a usage message and exit.

       -c COUNT, --count COUNT
           Exit after COUNT subframe messages.

       -D DEBUG, --debug DEBUG
           Set level of debug. Must be integer. Default 0.

       --desc
           Print long descriptions.

       --device DEVICE
           Connect to device DEVICE on gpsd host.

       -D LVL, --debug LVL
           Set debug level to LVL.

       --file FILE
           Read gpsd JSON from FILE instead of from gpsd..

       --host HOST
           Connect to gpsd on host HOST.

       --load LOADFILE
           Load saved JSON Subframe, TPV, and RAW data trom LOADFILE.

       -n COUNT, --count COUNT
           Count of messages to parse. 0 to disable.

       --port PORT
           Connect to gpsd on port PORT.

       --progress
           Print progress reports as messages are received.

       --satpos
           Compute GPS satellite positions before exit. If --time is given, the positions will be calculated at
           the time. Otherwise if a RAW message was received, the measurement time in that message will be used.
           The last resort is to use the time from the last TPV message is used.

       --save SAVEFILE
           Save decoded Subframe data in SAVEFILE as JSON. If present, the last TPV and RAW JSON records will
           also be saved.

       --test
           Run --satpos selftest code.

       --time SEC
           Compute satellite position at time SEC in POSIX seconds.

       -V, --version
           Print the program version, then exit.

       -x SEC, --seconds SEC
           Seconds of messages to parse. 0 to disable.

ARGUMENTS

       By default, clients collect data from the local gpsd daemon running on localhost, using the default GPSD
       port 2947. The optional argument to any client may override this behavior: [server[:port[:device]]]

       For further explanation, and examples, see the ARGUMENTS section in the gps(1) man page

EXAMPLES

       First configure a u-blox 9-series to output subframe messages. Then have gpssubframe gather one complete
       set of subframes, then print the data organized by GPS satellite number. Be sure to replace -P 22 with
       the correct protocol version for your receiver. Then calculate and print the known satellite positions as
       well as the azimuth, elevation, and range from the current position:

           ubxtool -P 22 -e SFRBX
           gpssubframe -x 750 --satpos

       If staring at a blank screen for 12.5 minutes is too stressful, then enable progress messages:

           gpssubframe -x 750 --satpos --progress

RETURN VALUES

       0
           on success.

       1
           on failure
