My HP-1 and GPS puck have been working flawlessly for years! All of a sudden the GPS is not recognized. It appears warm, and getting power, all connections checked.
I remember hearing early on that there were some connector failures at the HP-1 side.
Is there a way with a DVM or perhaps computer with serial port that I can simply test to see if the puck is outputting the serial data needed, or if in fact I have a hardware connection issue?
I am not a GPS wizard, so not even sure I what I could use to test the puck. Will it respond to a putty/hyperterm connection just to see if serial data is coming out?
Thanks
