Which GPS Modules Save Settings?

GPS/GNSS Development Boards

I have noticed that some GPS modules will save settings and some won’t. For example, I use u-center to change things like the sample rate and which sentences to output. My SparkFun M9N GPS saves the settings just fine. After a power cycle or even after a couple of days, the settings remain. But an M8Q GPS does not save the settings even though it looks like it is.

Could you please point me towards something that tells which GPS modules save the configuration and which don’t?

Thanks!

Hi Bruce.

Unfortunately we don’t have a chart or guide that lists if a particular receiver has this feature or not. You would need to check the data sheets for the modules you’re interested in to see if they have nonvolatile ram and save their settings too it.
