GPS time from PyTrack
-
-
@seb Got it. Thanks!
-
Ok, I'm confused. Here's a link for a project using the PyTrack with the micropyGPS module: https://github.com/ozeta/iot-gps-receiver. If the PyTrack uses I2C to communicate with the GPS chip, how can micopyGPS communicate with the chip via the UART?
-
I see no mention of UART in the linked code
-
@seb It looks like he's using both the micropyGPS and L76GNSS modules, which doesn't make any sense to me. Here he talks about seeing output on a UART with a PyTrack and the micropyGPS module: https://github.com/inmcm/micropyGPS/issues/7
Is he using the L76GNSS module to pull a NMEA sentence and then send it to the micropyGPS module for handling?
Anyone know of a way to contact an author on GitHub?

Raise an issue, then the owner will be notified.

The
L76GNSSlibrary provided by pycom reads the NMEA sentences via I2C, there is no UART involved. The linked to code usesL76GNSSto get the sentenaces, and thenmicropyGPSto parse them -
@seb Ok. Thanks for the confirmation. I appreciate the help.

@jmpratt I've had the same question, and was looking for a library that didn't use to much memory. So I wrote it myself (based upon the default library and @Neuromystix idea's. https://github.com/andrethemac/L76GLNSV4

@andrethemac Thanks for letting me know! Your library is just what I was looking for.
