    Fix each subsystem before testing others. Testing and Evaluating Serial Communications Test the GPS16X-HVS for proper operation including the baud rate and output string. Use a computer, terminal emulator software, a serial port (RS-232), and a 9-pin to pigtail cable (SC110/sockets).

    Set up the software for the correct serial port, 38.4 kbps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity. Flow control should be none. Using the SC110 cable, connect the GPS16X-HVS to the computer serial port. Power up the GPS16X-HVS. The GPS antenna should have a clear view of the sky. Don’t expect the GPS antenna to work indoors.

    One end of the A200 has a terminal block while the other end has a type B female USB port. The terminal block provides 12V, G, TX, and RX terminals for connecting the GPS16X-HVS (see FIGURE and TABLE A-1). A data cable, CSI part number 17648, ships with the A200. This cable has a USB type-A male connector that attaches to a PC’s USB port, and a type B...

    When the PPS signal is used to trigger the read data function (P15), the program table execution interval does not matter. Otherwise the timing between the GPS16X-HVS output and the datalogger read must be considered. Generally the execution interval can not be less than 2 seconds when the PPS...

    ). The second (p. 13) step is to verify that it really does not work. With the GPS16X-HVS running and the datalogger program running, look at the input location for GPS Quality Number. This location will show a one when the GPS16X-HVS output is picked up by the datalogger.

The datalogger will not pick up valid data until the GPS16X-HVS has a valid GPS fix, except during a GPS16X-HVS warm start where time can be read before position is known.
