New GPSDriver library

[Erel]

Sorry, I meant GetGPSData.

[2220]

It fails when execute

Sub Timer1_Tick
gps.GetDeviceData ' It fails
If gps.GetGpsData(6000) = True Then Displaygps
End Sub

With the GPS Settings.exe
Program port: none
Hardware port: COM4
Port Baud Rate:9600
Manage automatically: checked

[Erel]

This line retrieves information about the GPS Intermediate driver.
You can remove this line and see if GetGPSData works and returns a valid position.
Error number 87 is: Wrong parameters.
However the parameters sent are correct and work with other devices.

I removed the line 'gps.GetDeviceData and returns an erro like ' _main_timer1_tick'

Error getting position
Error number : 87

There is a problem with the GPS Intermediate driver. Maybe it is not configured correctly.

How I must configure the GPS Driver?

I used the GPS Settings.

Tell me the configuration.
The HTC GPS port is COM4

I've just downloaded the GPSDriverdemo from Agraham and when opens the connection has the same error, but when I enter NMEA option and I press 'Open', I can see the NMEA sentences in the textbox. So data is sent.

I'm getting crazy with HTC devices, but everybody have HTC devices.

If these really are the settings for your internal GPS they look wrong. On my HTC Diamond they are

Program port: COM4
Hardware port: none
Port Baud Rate:4800
Manage automatically: checked

Andrew you are right, but with this config I have the same error in the GPSDriverDemo you posted.

When I press 'Open', it appears _main_timer1_tick Error getting position, Error number 87

My ppc app. works mainly with Diamond model and I have a lot of problems with internal GPS. I resolved with GPS Plex, but with the new library you developed, I exclude the GPS Plex app. from installation from the customer.

I haven't posted a GPSDriverDemo that works with the official GPSDriver library. If you are using the one at post #36 in this thread http://www.basic4ppc.com/forum/addit...html#post18166 then it won't work. I said in that post that it is NOT a beta of the official library, it was only a demonstrator. The official GPSDriver library has different methods and properties to that demonstrator library.

That's right, but other HTC users tested and was ok.

Anyway, thank you for all.
