Good one Ken.... You can also use an inexpensive USB to TTL converter board and hookup the GPS Puck to TeraTerm set to 9600 baud.. That's what I used to get the Nema Strings before decoding specific info I needed with a PIC program.
Yes, that option is actually built in to this GPS with a USB connector on the backside of the board. You can plug it directly into your USB port which will power the GPS and display the NMEA strings. The serial port is used to interface directly with microcontrollers.
Hello, tanks for this explaining video. In the video you shown how to extract the different fields from the string. Where can I find this resource to expand the code? I wont to use the basics to set my clock (I2C) to the gps time.
@@0033mer Thanks. Wish I'd known that a couple years ago before I started messing with GPS chips. I was doing it in C on embedded linux and I also used something called SiRFDemo in Windows with GPS hooked up to comm port.
Inspiring me all the way from Uganda, thank you
Welcome to the channel!
@@0033mer thank you
Thank You! Useful in my Drone projects. From Frisco, TX
As usual always interesting. : = }}
Love your videos! They are very motivational for learning and experimenting with Forth!
Glad you like them! Thanks for the feedback.
Nice introduction
Wow I didn't know it was so easy, great video!
Glad you liked it!

Nice tutorial!
Excellent thank you
You are very welcome
And another great video. Thank you very much for it.
You're welcome!

As always, a great video Ken.
Awesome
You can send it commands to change the baud rate, the intervals of each sentence and which sentence are sent, which I have tried with mixed results.
You can use u-center.exe to configure the GPS through the USB port. Make sure your firmware is up to date and you don't have a uBlox knock off.
