Hi Chris, use the TAC32 software to initialize the gps board.... probably when you power up it comes into binary mode, not NMEA mode....

How does one tell a dead Oncore UT+ from a live one? Sounds like a illy question but the user manual says they produce no output until ou send it some commands. I connect an older Germin GPS to the same cable and a flood of NMEA essages appears in a terminal window. I'm running Linus and just sing "cat" to send ad receive data. -- ==== hris Albertson edondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ ime-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com o unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts nd follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ 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.
