Help wanted: Cant get my neo-m8p to print out rtcm correction data

[JacobWilkins]

I've been using the example 2 for the neo-m8p called Example2_StartRTCMBase. The example works fine except for the last function that is supposed to then print the RTCM data, it doesn't get called and I’m unable to figure out why.

I’m using the neo-m8p along with a sparkfun blackboard and I’m using an I2c cable to connect them.

I’m using a mac and a usb-c cable to power the blackboard and am using the arduino editor.

To reproduce this issue just open Example2_StartRTCMBase and run it with a neo-m8p and if its working the same as mine then the final function won't be getting called and wont print the RTCM data in the serial monitor as it is supposed to.

Hi @JacobWilkins ,

I don't have a NEO-M8P here to test... But looking at the example code, I think there's a bug in there...

Please try changing Line 49:

From:

SparkFun_u-blox_GNSS_Arduino_Library/examples/NEO-M8P-2/Example2_StartRTCMBase/Example2_StartRTCMBase.ino

Line 49 in 6f98c6c

myGNSS.setI2COutput(COM_TYPE_UBX); //Set the I2C port to output UBX only (turn off NMEA noise)

To:

myGNSS.setI2COutput( COM_TYPE_UBX | COM_TYPE_NMEA | COM_TYPE_RTCM3 ); //Set the I2C port to output UBX, NMEA and RTCM3

Do you see RTCM now?

Best wishes,
Paul

Hi @PaulZC,

I changed line 49 and am now seeing the RTCM data, thank you for your help.

Hi Jake (@JacobWilkins ),

Thanks for the update - I'm glad that's working for you!

Just re-opening this. It will be my reminder to update the examples!

Best wishes,

Hi Jake (@JacobWilkins ),

This has been resolved in release v2.2.17. There were five examples that needed updating...! Thanks again for the heads-up.

Best wishes,
Paul
