GPS Block - Cant see any Data
Good day
I would like to understand if I can receive coordinates for the GPS Unit directly from the external AARONIA GPS antenna, which is connected to the GPS Input. The idea is to get the actual location of the measurement point on the map in the future. An external GPS antenna with a magnetic base is ideal for these purposes. But using AARONIA GPS Logger (we have it) is not very convenient in a car.
The uploaded file shows that I am trying to use GPS Block, but it is not able to receive data from the external GPS antenna, which is connected to the “Act. GPS 3.3V (SMB)” input of the Spectran V6. Also the uploaded files show that the Spectran V6 unit receives coordinates from satellites, but cannot transmit them to the GPS unit.
The GPS block is not ment to be used with the internal GPS of the SPECTRAN V6, it just feeds GPS information to a data stream, see https://v6-forum.aaronia.de/forum/topic/spectran-v6-gnss-option-without-rf-drive-test-rtsa-module/?part=2#postid-2660
If you use the SPECTRAN V6 GPS the coordinates are within the data stream and can be used e.g. with the RF Drive Test block.
Thank you for the detailed explanations.
