MediaTek 3329 - connection via Xbee

Posted by Jakub on January 16, 2012 at 6:58am

Hello,

I have a problem with MediaTek 3329 and Baud rate:

I bought this GPS here (Diydrones) and I loaded a new firmware (from the diydrones). If I connect this GPS through FTDI cable and set 38 400 baud so everything is OK (in HK's Ground Control Station). But If I connect this GPS to the xbee (I use XtreamBee board) so I have not right NMEA data. The baud rate of the xbees is set to 38 400.

Can you help me?

Thank you

Jakub

Btw my GPS modules status LED is always on..Any idea what does that mean..I was thinking that it should blink till it's get satellite lock and goes solid.Any idea?

    I'm afraid I don't understand the question. What do you mean "connect GPS to xbee"? Are you using APM boards and code? If not, you'll have to explain what you are using.
