First i would like to state that im very new to this world of electronics.
I bought the Venus GPS Logger a while ago, along with a seeduino mega v1.1. and just now have the time to play with it.
I have the GPS connected to the auduino tx0 and rx0 port, and using the regulated 3.3v power from the arduino to power the gps.
The arduino has an empty sketch loaded to it
So the problem is now it's not working at all. All im getting is garbage/ noise from the seail communication in the form or random chars.
I hate to think i killed a $60 gps unit within less of day

Code: Select all
using the serial monitor within the arduino I was able to get some communication with the gps. So I fired up the SkyTraq Gps viewing software. That too also worked for the most part although I was un able to get a lock or even track one satellites. So I decided to re connect it up to my laptop so i could go out side. It took a while but i was able to track a few satellites and get a 2d gps fix on my location, with the updated and correct time.void setup()
{
}
void loop()
{
}

I don't know what could cause this. I was playing with baud rate and gps update rate before when it was working, but i never saved those settings permanently only to ram. So i feel the gps should be at factory default after a power cycle. Any ways im unable to change any thing with the skyTraw software since it does not recognize the gps any more../>?ÿݽgOÁ¾sþ?çݱ÷Ïí'¿?w½·ÿí{ö77ÿ¡÷¶2ö½µ¦îé#³öÿ½w?fã¿÷¹±÷Oíï¿g÷±7_í»»÷æùqv~Õ÷ïïîí{²7çjýó6ßvo½±¶Oívéví'»;fÝy/ÞÍöªwürî§ný#£ÿï¹zÝ»/GÙ£#w÷÷ïý³zs®FýS».wÝz¶Ïý£3¦÷ýr6w"Wç=æï»vïó»/÷Ùz®Îé;»7wÕ½¿GýFÉ«+/o:/o=÷ïºîíöíwËf¡f黦7·¡ï;²÷½½g^£;v¢ou¶OÍFïW³§fý÷®×F¿Ù±·WíV>¢öÑ{·ïÒNw:wçúo{Ûvï³»oç²÷¹ýÚFí#;?öòÝýfÎÙÿÞ¶ßíûºçî/÷rþÝrÑj¶·oû¯æ½7·Ï«cw3þ¹µ6î黿¦o¾ßÛOý»óö÷ÑböÿGÁw»ö÷²~½z³.Þsfoõ¶ïÍ«;/n¹1þnw&_Á£¢÷÷»n1·_ºwÿÙ=
