I just tried sending various TMODE and TMODE2 configuration messages to
the NEO-7M. These allow you to select 'Disabled' 'Survey In' and 'Fixed
Mode' where you can specify the receiver's lattitude and longitude. Not
surprisingly, it replied with negative acknowledgements each time so
they presumably aren't supported in this receiver. I was using the ublox
u-center tool which should ensure the messages were formatted correctly.
It's very unlikely, but its conceivable that it does actually support
these modes but some other required configuration hadn't been done,
causing a conflict.
I've not yet found any detailed documentation specifying exactly which
messages/features these modules do support.
