Connections:
Arduino - MTK 3329
5V - Vcc
GND - GND
Pin 0 (Rx) - Tx
The GPS receiver shouldn't be receiving anything so I didn't connect it.
That's one of the sketches I used:
Code: Select all
void setup() {
Serial.begin(4800);
}
void loop() {
byte b;
if (Serial.available() > 0) { //without > 0
b = Serial.read();
Serial.write(b);
}
}
The baud of the Serial monitor is 4800. I tried different rates, but no changes.
The GPS is pointed to the sky, but even if it's been cloudy in these days I still get random characters.
Has anyone got any 'gotchas' I'm missing?
