Radio Wide Features
It is supported on the Viking Mobile Radio, software version 8.10.x or later. Location 
service requires an external GPS module connected though the RS232 serial port. The 
Viking radio supports any receiver with RS232 serial output. The receiver must be 
configured to transmit the GPGGA and GPRMC NMEA sentences. P25 Trunking and 
Conventional IP data between a radio and an application with access to the fixed host is 
supported. Basically, data flows between the radio and the system. Radio to radio 
operation is not currently supported.
The radio processes GPS data from the receiver and sends it over the system to the 
Location Services Host System (LSHS). The LSHS is an application that can request and 
receive GPS data from radios (sometimes called “Location Server”). The Tier 2 Location 
Services Standard defines a protocol between the LSHS and the radios. The protocol is 
called the Location Request/Response Protocol (LRRP). EFJohnson radios with software 
supporting Location Services, support the LRRP protocol. The system must support IP 
data and can be P25 Digital Conventional and/or P25 Trunking.
The radio has two general Location Service features. The first is the ability to display GPS 
data on the radio’s display. The second is the ability to receive commands from and send 
data to a location server.
The “Display GPS” function does two things: 
Button Press activates the GPS Data Display menu. 
Button Press and Hold sends GPS data to the location server. 
Refer to the software manual for function programming. The following table shows the 
GPS data display that will display.
