| CheckSumOk | Checks if the checksum of the sentence is valid. |
| GetExistingSerialPorts | Returns the existing serial ports of the system. |
| GetNMEACheckSum | Returns the checksum of a sentence. |
| SerialCommPortToString | Converts SerialCommPort to string. |
| StringToASCIIByteArray | Converts string to ASCII byte array. |
| StringToSerialCommPort | Converts string to SerialCommPort. |
| StringToUnicodeByteArray | Converts string to UTF16 byte array. |
| StringToUTF7ByteArray | Converts string to UTF7 byte array. |

Public Instance Methods
| Close | Closes the communication with the GPS receiver. |
| CreateObjRef (inherited from MarshalByRefObject) | Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. |
| DetectGPS | Overloaded. Detects the GPS receiver connected to the system and returns as output parameters the communication port and baud rate. Only baud rate values between startBaudRate and endBaudRate are checked. |
| Dispose (inherited from Component) | Overloaded. Releases all resources used by the Component. |
| DrawSatellites | Draws the satellites in view. |
| Equals (inherited from Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. |
| FastDetectGPS | Detects the GPS receiver connected to the system and returns as output parameters the communication port and baud rate. Only baud rate values between 4800 and 57600 are checked. |
| GetHashCode (inherited from Object) | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. GetHashCode is suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table. |
| GetLifetimeService (inherited from MarshalByRefObject) | Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. |
| GetType (inherited from Object) | Gets the Type of the current instance. |
| InitializeLifetimeService (inherited from MarshalByRefObject) | Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance. |
| Open | Opens the communication with the GPS receiver. |
| SendASCIIString | Sends an ASCII string to the GPS receiver. |
| SendByteArray | Sends a byte array to the GPS receiver. |
| SendUnicodeString | Sends a UTF16 string to the GPS receiver. |
| SendUTF7String | Sends a UTF7 string to the GPS receiver. |
| SendUTF8String | Sends a UTF8 string to the GPS receiver. |
| ToString (inherited from Component) | Returns a String containing the name of the Component, if any. This method should not be overridden. |
| UploadRoute | It uploads a route. |
| UploadWaypoint | Overloaded. Uploads a waypoint. |
Protected Instance Methods
 Dispose | Overloaded. Clean up any resources being used. |
| Finalize (inherited from Component) | Releases unmanaged resources and performs other cleanup operations before the Component is reclaimed by garbage collection. |
| GetService (inherited from Component) | Returns an object that represents a service provided by the Component or by its Container. |
| MemberwiseClone (inherited from MarshalByRefObject) | Overloaded. Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object. |
| MemberwiseClone (inherited from Object) | Overloaded. Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. |
| OnAltitudeChanged | Raises the AltitudeChanged event. |
| OnArrival | Raises the Arrival event. |
| OnConnected | Raises the Connected event. |
| OnDetecting | Raises the Detecting event. |
| OnDisconnected | Raises the Disconnected event. |
| OnHeadingChanged | Raises the HeadingChanged event. |
| OnLatitudeChanged | Raises the LatitudeChanged event. |
| OnLongitudeChanged | Raises the LongitudeChanged event. |
| OnPosition2DChanged | Raises the Position2DChanged event. |
| OnPosition3DChanged | Raises the Position3DChanged event. |
| OnReceived | Raises the Received event. |
| OnSatelliteReceived | Raises the SatelliteChanged event. |
| OnSatellitesReceived | Raises the SatellitesChanged event. |
| OnSent | Raises the Sent event. |
