Yes that's right. See also my comment under the solution from Yvan Rodrigues.

Thank you. Meanwhile I was able to read the internal sensor en get the satellite data, but in an indirect way. I downloaded the trial version Localizer from Centrafuse. That application works with the GPS/GNSS sensor driver. It bypasses or somehow uses the Windows Location platform to provide NMEA 0183 standard output from the chipset. Anyway, the output is delivered to applications via a user-selectable virtual com port. My application sees this as a normal serial com port.
What I want is to implement in my own application a location API and a location provider driver to get NMEA strings directly but I coudn't find an example yet how to do that. I am working with VB.Net using Visual Studio 2008 professional or Visual Studio 2013 for desktops Express
