Hi,

I’m trying to use your TinyGPS library. I’m having some troubles to get data out of the GPS chip. My oscilloscope shows its coming.

Would it be possible to get some simple tutorial how to use TinyGPS with Arduino? Just to make it simple.

There have been a couple of people interested in an inverting option. Please do post your code here if you want. I would be most interested to take a look. Mikal Hi Derek,

Thanks for your kind comments.

I discovered it when I learned the limitations of the built in SoftwareSerial library. I'm using it to read serial data from a maxbotix maxsonar sensor. This sensor is a little funny in that it outputs 0-5V RS-232 data. In theory you should be able to hook it up to a PC's serial port and the PC can read the data. This may be great for a PC, but it stinks if you are trying to read it from an arduino! I took your code and added a parameter to allow me to optionally invert the data. Some PIC C compilers have this option. I'd be happy to share the code with you. If interested, let me know and I'll send you what I have. Thanks again for your work! Hello,

I had been using APSS as a template, and just stumbled upon this post after seeing NSS referenced elsewhere... SO, yeah I guess you could say I'm interested! Please let me know if we can join forces, or if I should stall until handshaking is integrated into NSS. Cheers, -r Greetings,
