Hello Time Nuts, Tuesday, January 22, 2019 The Ublox M8T is now fixed! For future reference this is what was wrong. CSG Shop ship various versions of this GPS module on a generic board, as far as I can tell, and reading between the lines. Some versions need this jumper across two of the

Hello Time Nuts! Sunday, January 20, 2019 Thanks for all the replies, I am now in e-mail contact with Alexander at the sellers place. He asked last night if there's a jumper on the underside of the GPS board. At first I thought there was a tiny SMC resistor or capacitor. It was in an

The official RPi touchscreen mounted in a Smartipi case (with the extended back cover) works very well. That's how I have my alarm clock configured. The GPS and a backup battery are mounted in the back cover. I once hacked up a version of Heather that does the singing clock during the day

David, Don't tap the time LEDs. For InCase series NEO-M8T TIME & RAW receiver board (https://www.csgshop.com/product.php?id_product=218), access to PPS is through the 12 pin JST SH socket, its harness or the breakout board it feeds. You can see the breakout board's labelled items at

Hi This has swung over to the “is it legit” / supported question. What’s below is *only* in reference to that part: There are various levels of “legit” when it comes to these modules. Some are 100% uBlox produced units with flash code. Some are equally 100% uBlox, but have the firmware in

Hi Chris, By query I meant poll settings, sorry. Your screenshot shows 1MHz configured on TIMEPULSE 2. I don't think it is going to work. Standard products used to have 1kHz frequency limit on TIMEPULSE 2. I have not checked any FTS functionality recently. The manual (Receiver Description)

Hello David, Thanks for the reply, it came froma recommended Lithuanian source, where others have no issues with similar devices. I e-mailed them re this but got no rely, sadly. Is there any way to interrogate it (not the suppliers ;)) to see if it's legit? Thursday, January 17,

17/01/2019 14:42 I have a Ublox NEO-M8T-0-10 that in the OE state shows no output on TP2. If I programme it with the UCentre software for say 500hZ output I sill see nothing on TP2. Do I need to pull it high on boot or anything to see an output please? I am not probing it with a X10 scope probe
