Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Just trying out the GPS. MMX144 v5.03.16 @ 252MHz, GPS V.KEL TTL.

Latitude always prints Ok, but longitude prints the lat value (-37.7128).
Mostly fails if no pause, intermittent if pause is 100. Working if pause is 1000. Other GPS commands looks ok.

'this works with pause 1000
Open "com1:9600" As GPS,UTC +10
Do
If GPS(valid)=1 Then
Print GPS(latitude)
Pause 1000
Print GPS(longitude)
Else
Print "waiting"
End If
Loop
Close GPS

' this prints lats then longs then lats again, looping
Open "com1:9600" As GPS,UTC +10
Do
'If GPS(valid)=1 Then
'Print GPS(latitude)
'Pause 1000
Print GPS(longitude)
'Else
'Print "waiting"
'End If
Loop
Close GPS

Thanks for the report - cut-and-paste typo in the code.

The longitude is derived from either GGA or RMC, it was correct for GGA but not RMC so it depended on timing of the request if you got the right answer.

Please try this - no change in version number

I'll update the main thread when there is a more significant changeEdited by matherp 2017-04-16
