7. FAQ’s
I am not getting GPS data into my application on my Windows PC.
1. Check your DEVICE MANAGER to confirm the COM Port number assigned to the GPS.
Then be sure this is the same COM port number configured in your application.
2. Be sure your Baud rate is configured correctly at:
Baud Rate: 38400
Data bit: 8
Parity: None
Stop Bit: 1
Flow Control: None
3. Configure the GPS Info utility with the correct COM Port and test your GPS receiver first
before using it in your application.
Will the GPS work with other Street Mapping software?
Globalsat GPS receivers provides standard NMEA data for mapping software to use and convert to
coordinates and should work well with most any NMEA compliant software on the market today.
