Lassen-SK8 Embedded GPS Module

1-13

Starter Kit

When the GPS module has completed a position fix and starts transmitting position
reports, the position reports will begin scrolling in the auto window. An automatic receiver
health report is sent every few seconds, even when no satellites are being tracked.

If the auto window is not displaying messages, then the GPS module may not be
connected properly to the computer. To test the connection, press [V].

If the message,

WAITING FOR REPLY

appears continuously in the command window,

then the GPS module is not communicating with the computer. If this occurs, re-check the
interface cable connections and verify the serial port selection. If the communication
failure still occurs after checking all connections and settings, please call the Trimble
Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for assistance.
