this message

$GN OK*xx
Parameters updated successfully
$GN ERR*xx
An error response
Notes:
For the query option, the return value of $GN <rate>*xx requires different parsing than the
normal $GN message format. The application should check if a comma is present in the $GN
string, and, if so, assume it is the standard geospatial information format. If no comma is present
and the value is a number, then the value is the rate being returned in response to the $GN ?
query.
<rate> is a value between 1 and 2147483647 (2
31
-1). It will be the number of seconds in
between each message.
