Hi all,
I am working on project which have MucroView, OpenLog and ultimate gps /by adafruit/
Since there is only one hardware serial I have to use Software Serial to have both the gps and the OpenLog to work together.
The problem is that if they are both connected the OpenLoge splits the log in multiple files. I tried to switch both the gps and OpenLog between hardware ans software serial but with no luck
separate both work just fine
Please help me to make them both work together
Thanks
There is my code, it is the example for the gps but can't make it work as it should

// Test code for Adafruit GPS modules using MTK3329/MTK3339 driver

// This code shows how to listen to the GPS module in an interrupt
// which allows the program to have more 'freedom' - just parse
// when a new NMEA sentence is available! Then access data when
// desired.

// Tested and works great with the Adafruit Ultimate GPS module

// If you're using a GPS module:
// Connect the GPS Power pin to 5V
// Connect the GPS Ground pin to ground
// If using software serial (sketch example default):
// Connect the GPS TX (transmit) pin to Digital 3
// Connect the GPS RX (receive) pin to Digital 2
// If using hardware serial (e.g. Arduino Mega):
// Connect the GPS TX (transmit) pin to Arduino RX1, RX2 or RX3
// Connect the GPS RX (receive) pin to matching TX1, TX2 or TX3
// If you're using the Adafruit GPS shield, change
// SoftwareSerial mySerial(3, 2); -> SoftwareSerial mySerial(8, 7);
// and make sure the switch is set to SoftSerial
