    Default Interfacing GPS receiver module with PIC16F876

    hi all

    iam trying send an sms containing the GPS coordinates by connecting both using
    pic 16f876 i found the circute and the code but it steel not working and i really don't know why.i have tryed all the AT commands on the hyperterminal and it is working good.that is the circuit and the code.

    below the code and the circuit

    For one thing, you're using both HSERIN and SERIN. Which is it? Can't really have both without resetting the serial port pins back and forth between the serial module and general purpose I/O.
    And, 2nd, you do realize this is a PicBasicPro forum, not a Proton Basic forum, right? PicBasicPro doesn't do DIMs and I'm not sure, but I don't think Proton does PAUSE.
    So, again, which is it?

    Default GPS fields can be variable length

    I am not sure you can use the explicit array approach (Rx[26] = "," etc) as the NMEA sentences are variable length and what might be a comma this time may not be a comma when the field data changes.

    I posted code to decode/parse GPS sentences a year or two back.
    Have a look at:-

    theblackhourse, This section of code does not look right...
    '_______________________________

    temp2 = temp2 >> 1
    temp1=temp2
    charcount = charcount + 1
    temp2 = RX[charcount]
    temp1.7 = temp1.7 OR temp2.2
    temp1.1 = temp1.6 OR temp2.1
    temp1.5 = temp1.5 OR temp2.0
    TX[txcounter] = temp1
    txcounter = txcounter + 1
    '_______________________________

    I beleive the line "temp1.1 = temp1.6 OR temp2.1" should be "temp1.6 = temp1.6 OR temp2.1" Also I think with a little thought you can get this series of lines down to about 10 or so...
