FYsetc S6 GPS
Gerry Byrne
My GPS does not appear to function and I note Khalid's comment here about defining the GPS serial port as #define TIME_LOCATION_SOURCE GPS #define SERIAL_GPS Serial3 #define SERIAL_GPS_BAUD 9600 And wired it to PC10 and PC11 on EXP1 Checking my setup I find that my Config h defines the serial_GPS as Serial 2 but that I had been connecting to EXP1 as Khalid mentions above. Is it possible to correct this without re-flashing the board again? For example by connecting elsewhere? Gerry

For OnStepX, I used this:
#define TIME_LOCATION_SOURCE GPS #define TIME_LOCATION_PPS_SENSE HIGH #define SERIAL_GPS Serial3 #define SERIAL_GPS_BAUD 9600 It compiles. But I have not tested X on the S6 for a while, because it is still in flux.

Khalid, sorry... The OnstepX code(10.05f) is setup to use softserial on PA2 PA3. Also alternately can I use the DS3231 on the I2C buss pins already on the board.

KahlidThat is Khalid ... common error though ... Did you move the GPS from RX3/TX3 to the softserial pins?No. was this done to shutup the incessant spewing from the GPS? I have always used the following: #define TIME_LOCATION_SOURCE GPS #define SERIAL_GPS Serial3 #define SERIAL_GPS_BAUD 9600 And wired it to PC10 and PC11 on EXP1, as in the pictures on the Wiki page. Once the GPS gets a fix and starts providing PPS, OnStep stops reading that port, so the info from it is ignored anyway.

Kahlid, Did you move the GPS from RX3/TX3 to the softserial pins?
was this done to shutup the incessant spewing from the GPS? We only need the info once a night.
