GPS and software RTC
PostPosted: Thu Apr 29, 2010 11:42 pm     Reply with quote

Hello,

I wrote the following code to read the stream from a gps module. It works great except that sometime, the display is jamming and the time and date are wrong. They looks more like shifted by a nibble than really wrong from the GPS.

I use a picdem2+ board and my compiler version is 4.065

Have somebody any idea of what is going wrong ?

Code:

atoi operates on a string. A string array for 2 chars requires a 3rd
element for the string terminator bytes (0x00). You need to increase
the 'dump' array size to 3 elements to allow space for the string terminator.

You also need to set the 3rd element to 0x00. If you can guarantee
that your code will never change the 3rd element, then you can just set it
to 0x00 one time. To be more safe, you could add some lines of code so
after each time you load indexes 1 and 0, to also set index 2 to 0x00.
