Hello Nick,

Thank you. Good to know that it works for someone. And you're also using a NEO-7M, right? /dev/ttyACM0, is that an usb-to-serial converter? I'm using /dev/AMA0, which is the TXD/RXD pins on the GPIO port. So i just need to use 4 wires and connect the module to the Raspi... I could try to use the usb-to-serial adapter connected to the Raspi but that is a rather uncomfortable work-arround and even more power consuming...

...would like to try to transmit EbNaut on 137 kHz directly from such a module.

73, Stefan

Hello dear GPS experts,

I'm still struggling with my NEO-7M and vlfrx-tools. Instead of the
standard ucenter software i use my Raspi and vlfrx-tools to configure
the module. Using the vtubx
<http://abelian.org/vlfrx-tools/notes.html#vtubx>  tool, i can configure
the time pulse as expected, for example
*vtubx -P 1e-1 -S /dev/ttyAMA0*
leads to a blinking LED with 100 ms on-time. So the communication works
fine.
However,with
*vtubx -F 10 -S /dev/ttyAMA0* or *vtubx -F 1,10e1 -vv -S /dev/ttyAMA0*
the LED gets and stays dark, i.e. no frequency output.

Now i tried to use the old u-center software and there i can configure
the TP output as expected to a frequency of say 20 Hz and there the LED
is indeed blinking.

Does someone have tried to use vtubx and have some experience? What am i
doing wrong?

Stephan,

Here on a Centos box (yes I know ...) it all works as expected (after I
got the dependencies resolved)

vtubx -F 10 -S /dev/ttyACM0 gives a nice fast flash rate of the LED

vtubx -F 1 -S /dev/ttyACM0 puts it back ...
