		Q: How do I reduce the GPS to output only GP Sentences? (F110G7, K120G3, B360G2, B360G3, S510, S410G5, X600)
A: Please follow the below steps:
- Go to https://gps.getac.com
- Download the first item there to download GetacGPSCommand
- Unzip the file
- Download the custom.ini file from this article below in attachment area
- Copy and paste the custom.ini into the folder that has the GetacGPSCommand.exe that you unzipped
	- The default baud rate of this GPS is 115200, if your software ABSOLUTELY has to have it be a different baud rate then open custom.ini
- After the $PAIR400,0 line press enter to create a new line
- On the new line type $PAIR864,0,0,4800 or $PAIR864,0,0,9600 depending on which you need
- Save the file and close it
 
- From the folder you just pasted the file into with GetacGPSCommand click the path at the top
- Type CMD and press enter to open command prompt within that folder path
- Open Control Panel
- Click Small / Large Icons at the top right
- Open Getac GPS Service
- Click Disable and Ok
- In command prompt window type G then tab to fill in GetacGPSCommand.exe and type /c and tab to fill in custom.ini and press enter
- It should then program the GPS to to now output GP only
	- You can test by typing GetacGPSCommand 3 115200 and press enter. 3 Being whatever your COM port is for the GPS. If its a different number put that number instead
- It would then output the GPS strings from the GPS for about 15 seconds or so. It should output the GPGGA, GPGSV and GPRMC only
 
- You can close window and open your CAD/CRM
- Make sure you're pointing it to the COM port for your GPS at baud rate of 115200, unless you changed it to 9600 or 4800.
