The getalmanac Command

The getalmanac command gets the current almanac data from the receiver and saves it to a file:

getalmanac PATH
where:

The output will consist of a line with the field titles, separated by commas, and a line for each satellite with the field values separated by a single space. If the satellite identification numbers are missing, the order of the lines is the one provided by the receiver and is expected to follow the satellite numbers from 1 to 32.

This command only works with Garmin receivers.
