Hello,
I'm using the GPS Logger with an sd card. The sd card is formatted correctly with FAT16. However, when I try to create a file using the GPS logger sketch, I get the following in the serial monitor:
GPSlogger
writing to GPSLOG00.TXT
ready!
$PSRF100,01,4800,08,01,00*0E
$PSRF105,01*3E
$PSRF103,00,00,00,01*24
$PSRF103,01,00,00,01*27
$PSRF103,02,00,00,01*26
$PSRF103,03,00,00,01*27
$PSRF103,04,00,01,01*21
$PSRF103,05,00,00,01*21
$PSRF151,00*3E
I know that there are some threads about this but I couldn't find any answer to this problem. Why is this happening?
Thank you!

Re: sd card empty
I have the tx jumper placed. Is this the only cause for getting those messages and then not having any files in the sd card?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Re: sd card empty
I didn't have it plugged it in at that time, but it is an EM-406

Yes! All of them worked, up to the GPS_Logger sketch.

Re: sd card empty
I made sure that it is wired exactly the way you showed in the picture, but now the GPS light doesn't come on (and it was before in the previous tests).
In the GPS test sketch I don't see any data coming from the GPS in the serial monitor. But I checked with an oscilloscope and there was serial data on the transmit pin.

Re: sd card empty
Yes, I'm running the gps logger sketch. I wasn't getting any GPS data in the serial monitor using the gps test sketch with the wiring that corresponds to that sketch.
Right now I'm using the wiring for the gps logger sketch and when I run the code I get this: Card init. failed!
Both the red and the green LEDs light up at the same time every 2 seconds or so. The light in the EM-406 receiver doesn't come on.
What do I do? I wasn't getting this error with the sd card before, did something corrupted it while trying to fix the other problem?
Thank you for the help.

Re: sd card empty
OK! get it wired for the gps logger sketch, insert the card, and reload the code. then press the reset button or reset by opening up the serial terminal again. does it have a card init problem still?

Re: sd card empty
does the card work on your computer?
