Hi The boxes all seem to go into survey, complete it and then happily lock up. One seems to have a broken "lock" LED, but z38xx shows it running fine.
If I understand you correctly, there is no real "write to eeprom" command. It's just a matter of turning off the survey at boot function. I'll have to poke at the beasts tonight and see what they says about their current survey settings. Thanks!

There must be some differences related to the channel numbers and serial post configuration at least I would expect. I think the following apply. You need to not only be able to provide a position, as was suggested, or from a survey, but to also prevent site survey from starting up at power on. Survey at start is default, at least on the Z3801A, and from what you say, I suspect your box does the same. If a position is specified, or the survey completes OK, the unit should go to position hold mode automatically. To check. :GPS:POSition:HOLD:STATe? To specify what startup mode you want :GPS:POSition:SURVey:STATe:POWerup ON or OFF ON forces a survey. to check :GPS:POSition:SURVey:STATe:POWerup? If it is turned off the receiver will use the last valid position it has. This might be the default , (Korea) if the eprom is shot. hope that helps, Mike Le 02/08/2010 00:42, Bob Camp a écrit : > GPS:POS N,DD,MM,SS,W,DD,MM,SS,ALT > > > _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
