The program GPSMON32

The program GPSMON32 can be used to monitor and program all essential

functions of Meinberg GPS-Receivers. The Software is executable under Win9x/2k/
NT. To install GPSMON32 just run Setup.exe from the included diskette and follow
the instructions of the setup program.

To obtain a connection between your PC and the GPS-receiver, connect the receivers
COM0 port to a free serial port of your PC. The PCs comport used by the program
GPSMON32 can be selected in submenu 'PC-Comport' in menu 'Connection'.

Also transfer rate and framing used by the program are selected in this menu. Communi-
cation between the clock and the PC comes about, only if the GPS serial port is
configured in the same way as the PCs comport. You can enforce an access, if the GPS
serial port is not configured with appropriate parameters for communication. Select
the menu item 'Enforce Connection' in menu 'Connection' and click 'Start' in the
appearing window. Some firmware versions of GPS167 do not support this way of
setting up a connection. If 'Enforce Connection' doesn't succeed apparently, please
change the serial port parameter of GPS COM0 manually to the PCs parameters.
