Just a quick note to everyone running MatrixPilot on your UAV Dev Boards: we suggest updating to version 2.0.2 before you fly again, to get a couple important bug fixes. This bugfix release also fixes a few small incompatibilities with the ArduStation telemetry output format.Happy flying!Download MatrixPilot 2.0.2, and check out the UAV Dev Board firmware home page for more info.
:)) , looks good Rana, will try it later in the day. Is this the live data from modem or capture and post into GS some how? I assume it is live data directly fed to GS.
UDB Telemetry is not working with the New ArduIMU Ground Station revision however it's working with almost all previous Ground Stations.

Rana, it looks like the UDB is sending out the right format. I would suggest asking people more familiar with the Ground Station.
One note: it looks like the text of the long lines is incorrectly cutting off after BER:167. There should be more info on those lines. But I think I remember that that is just a problem in how hyperterminal handles text running past the end of the line.
Ah okay. I couldn't figure out a way to connect at any other baud rate, but I realize I'm using an ancient version of the Ground Station, so that could be my problem. Rana, you could try the 19200-57600 hack, but it sounds like baud rate is not actually the problem.
If you're seeing data arrive in hyperterminal, then the problem is likely on the Ground Station end and not the UDB end. Can you send a few lines of the data you're seeing in hyperterminal to confirm that the UDB is sending the propor format?
Thanks a lot Ben !, Thanks a lot Chris !
Chris, is right, GS supports alI bauds, you have to type serial port and baud and then run.
I have already tried almost all baud rates,one at a time but still no data is displayed in GS and on pressing Google Earth button, GE launches but current GPS position is not shown.
What may be problematic is the list of files to be present in the folder wgich contains ArduStation.exe.
Pl. suggest.

The link is of New ArduIMU Ground station. I have not posted any capture of modem.
It is very very nice to see UDB telemetry in Ardu GS !

It is working now, thanks for all your help and guidance !
Thanks & Best Regards

There is one more blog initiated by someone else, some times back, he also faced similar problem
