Re: [time-nuts] how to set up a Jupiter-T?

2011-04-09 Thread John Beale

In case anyone's interested, I've discovered a few things about my Jupiter-T:

1) WinOncore12 sends commands too quickly. The TU60 needs quite some time 
to process each one. If I type the commands in by hand separately, more of 
them work as expected.


2) Typing the command @@Ae  will set longitude, but  
reports longitude 0 and 8000 reports 37 degrees East, and  is 
about 74 degrees East and that's the largest allowed value. So either on 
sending or receiving, or both, I think WinOncore12 is interpreting the data 
fields differently than the TU60. Or you can't use this device in the west :-)


3) Don't try to use *bay GPS Antenna Item: 260664041419 including 10-meter 
lead to MCX connector, it doesn't work. Not even on a different, known-good 
receiver.  Might have too high a gain (55 dB??) Or I just got a bad one.

John,

Perhaps you need to put a minus sign (-) in front of the number for the West ?
