I have a Lassen iQ Evaluation Kit – USB (SKU# GPS-00165). The first time I setup the kit and tested it, everything was working according to the evaluation manual, except that I did not see any PPS output from the board.

I performed “factory reset” a few times and now when I plug in the board, none of the settings in the software (IQ\_Monitor) are shown. Only the Tx light seem to be blinking. No other status changes. Is there anything I need to fix?

I have the same issue with the Trimble Copernicus module, everything is hooked up properly, but Copernicus Monitor just blinks the TX repeatedly. I get nothing else, not even through hyperterminal.

Have i missed something in set up? Do I need to send a msg to the module??? Somebody please!! This is driving me nuts!! Enough exclamation marks!!

Oh dear

It seemed that screwing in the cables to the ports did the trick. Very ashamed. Very very ashamed.
