1. Stop the current gpsd process: killall gpsd | |
2. Plug in the BU-353 | |
3. Figure out where the gps was loaded: tail dmesg | grep ttyUSB (this will spit out something like /dev/ttyUSB0...note the location). | |
4. Switch the receiver from binary to nmea (using the result from step 3): gpsctl -f -n /dev/ttyUSB0. | |
5. Configure the serial port (using the result from step 3): stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 ispeed 4800 (8n1 should be configured by default). | |
Now, if you listen to the port (echo /dev/ttyUSB0), then you should see the NMEA ASCII messages. | |
If you want to use gpsd, but you want to keep the device configured to output NMEA, then you have to run gpsd in read only mode. For example, gpsd -b /dev/ttyUSB0. |
