[time-nuts] LTR-Lite GPS
Looking closely at the board, I see it uses a Venus GPS chipset. And yet folks here are using the ublox ucenter software with it. What am I missing?

Re: [time-nuts] LTR-Lite GPS
I assume the Venus chipset NMEA output sentence set is a subset of the uBlox NMEA output set, and the NMEA messages are sufficiently standardized that the uCenter software can read them and display the results in a meaningful way. Any other program that reads and displays NMEA data (and can be set to 38400 bps, instead of NMEA default 4800 bps) would likely work. Of course, none of the commands in uCenter that configure the receiver are going to work, both because the receiver isn't a uBlox and because the serial port is unidirectional. You only get status. - Dave On 25/11/2014 16:07, Joseph Gray wrote: Looking closely at the board, I see it uses a Venus GPS chipset. And yet folks here are using the ublox ucenter software with it.

NMEA is a company-independent format.. and the uBlox application is nice.

Yes, I know that NMEA is standard. I assumed that your board was also putting out proprietary messages.sounds like not. Joe Gray W5JG On Nov 25, 2014 2:50 PM, S.

STI is emitted with the other NMEA messages and JLTS is emitted when the message switch is in the status position, See the manual pages 6 and 25. JLTS is sufficiently interesting that I wish it was always available. ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Re: [time-nuts] LTR-Lite GPS
It does output two proprietary messages, one from Skytrack, but not sure I would use the Skytrack application due to the low information content of that message and the instability of the Skytrack app. The uBlox app lets you view the two proprietary messages too and is stable. Everyone can use the app they like best. Sent From iPhone On Nov 25, 2014, at 15:03, Joseph Gray jg...@zianet.com wrote: Yes, I know that NMEA is standard.

Re: [time-nuts] LTR-Lite GPS
Paul, You can listen to PJLTS on the USB and grab the Skytrack NMEA in TTL format from pin 13 of header JP1 at the same time..
