Re: [time-nuts] Motorola Oncore Basic Command @@Bk Help
Hello Randy, Your web site is a gold mine of Motorola GPS Receiver info. I hope to incorporate all the Motorola commands into my program.

Re: [time-nuts] Motorola Oncore Basic Command @@Bk Help -- Update
Just a suggestion - VMware Player is now free. Run a VM on Linux with real Windows inside. Since you had a PC running Windows and are now running Linux, I assume you haven't given away your old Windows license? There are several websites that tell you how to create the VM disk image using free tools, so you don't need the full VMware package. - Original Message - From: xaos [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement time-nuts@febo.com Sent: Saturday, April 29, 2006 7:52 AM Subject: [time-nuts] Motorola Oncore Basic Command @@Bk Help -- Update Thanks Brooke and SJ for the quick response. SJ: Unfortunately, I can't use the WinOncore12 program as it runs on Windows. Recently I shut down my last Windows box and I am running all Linux. The problem is that I was using TACC32 Software from CNS Systems to control my Motorola Receivers and the GPSCon software to control my HPZ3801A Boxes. When I tried running these programs using Wine(the Linux Windows emulator) I had no luck. So I decided to do a re-write of my older software: darkgps to support the M12 and the HP stuff. Not a simple task since the Windows programs are very sophisticated and I want the extra features. Stuff like plots of receiver parameters, EFC voltages(for the HP units) etc. are really nice to have. So now, find myself in the middle of a rather large software project. I have access to a 12 channel M12 a few UT units and a few Basic units. The Basic unit was sending out the Bk command and I did not know how to process it. BTW, if anyone here wants to try out the beta please let me know. There are two programs, a c code shared memory connector and a perl program that does everything else. Full source included. I tried to write this one as cleanly as possible with plenty of comments.

Re: [time-nuts] Motorola Oncore Basic Command @@Bk Help
Hello George, you can find pointers to the Motorola WinOncore12 software on my website (_www.jackson-labs.com_ (http://www.jackson-labs.com) ) in the Support/FAQs/GPS section. WinOncore12 decodes or assembles the commands for you, and includes a reference to the Motorola command set (especially for the older receivers). There is a button (MSG) for typing in commands, it will then let you know what the command does, and send it to the receiver. bye, SJ ___ time-nuts mailing list time-nuts@febo.com https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
Re: [time-nuts] Motorola Oncore Basic Command @@Bk Help
Forgot to mention, the WinOncore12 program also includes and extensive command list explanation in the Help section for both the 8 and 12 channel receivers! bye, SJ ___ time-nuts mailing list time-nuts@febo.com https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
