When connecting other gps receivers they all show up as /dev/ttyACM0 and seem much easier to read.
Finally, now that you have good dongle output and good gpsd output, try tangoGPS. GPS receiver from GlobalSat, BU-353S4 ( SiRF IV ) connected to Raspberry pi 3B over its USB port and it's showing up as /dev/ttyUSB0. If you have have good dongle output (=gpsd input), open a second terminal window and try either gpsmon or cgps to test gpsd output. If that fails, then try resetting the baud rate to 4800: pkill gpsd Try cat /dev/ttyUSB0 (stop it with CTRL+c). Once gpsd is running, check for dongle output (dongle output = gpsd input). If not, then you have a udev rules issue, and you must start gpsd manually with gpsd /dev/ttyUSB0 #Istumbler bu 353 gps help windows 10#
It is far easier and more reliable to simply purchase another Windows 10 compatible GPS Puck (similar to.

See if udev recognized the dongle and started gpsd ( ps -e | grep gpsd). For Example, the BU-353 which works with earlier versions of Windows does not work without an elaborate work around involving preventing automatic update of Prolific USB drivers by the OS. Sometimes it gets mounted to /dev/ttyUSB1 if 0 isn't free! If it doesn't mount, then you're missing a kernel module (from your description, that's unlikely). Check dmesg | tail -n 5 to verify the dongle was really mounted to /dev/ttyUSB0. Plug the USB dongle back in and wait 10 seconds. Wait 10 seconds for /dev/ttyUSB0 to be freed. Unplug the USB dongle and kill gpsd ( sudo pkill gpsd). Do the following steps in order to test the dongle, the kernel module, the mount, the device node, and gpsd: If there's no gpsd output, then do a more detailed check. gpsmon can help diagnose that problem, too.
Restart gpsmon each time you restart gpsd.Ĭould tango be starting too soon? The dongle requires a few seconds to sort out the signals, identify satellites, and calculate a fix udev requires a few seconds to start gpsd, which in turn requires a few seconds to probe the dongle (which may not be ready yet) and begin broadcasting useful information when the data stream finally begins. Open a separate terminal window and run gpsmon (included in the 'gpsd-clients' package) to check gpsd output. Try the -b flag (for example, gpsd -b /dev/ttyUSB0)
