Weird Output with Ultimate GPS

Post by Blake81 »

When I run the leo_echo sketch (as is, without making changes to it) I get the weird output that you see in the attached image at first, and then nothing. Does something need to change in the sketch? Should the switch be set for Direct or Soft Serial? And is this maybe a problem with the soldering on the header pins? Thanks.

That looks like a budrate mismatch on the Serial connection.

Check the Serial.begin() statement in your setup() function, and make sure the Serial Monitor matches that value.
