ECIO40 & GPS-Click & EB076 Problem

Post by Dutchie_World_Wide »

Good Morning guys,

Yesterday I wiped the dust of my winter hobby. Not that i think that summer is finished, but I felt like playing with it.

I am getting stuck with I think getting data from the serial connection from the GPS.
The program does not go passed the first loop. The state of GPS_Data_Valid_Check is not changing, eventhough the GPS lick has a fix as the LED is flashing.
The Display shows;
Waiting for fix
&
Buffer overflow
0

I am 99,9% sure the hardware is correct.

Am I missing something?

I am using the ECIO40P with BaseBoard, EB076 Display and Lea-6s MikroE GPS Click with LEA-6S
Flowcode V6

Hello,

If you switch the baud rate of the GPS component to 4800 then does it allow it to work? Looks like the module has a few different startup modes so might have to play around with the settings.

Thanks Benj,

I changed the GPS true USB to a higher baud rate but forgot to set the proper baud rate on the board :oops:
