GPS EB056 Connection Problems to PIC18F4680

PIC18F4680 linked to GPS EB056?
Is there anyone here who will help me?

With ECIO40P there is no problem by connecting the GPS EB056 Port C6 and C7 it works fine.

But with the same setup program will PIC18F4680 not work with GPS EB056

Hae used EB056 - GPS Board - Example Files Flowcode v4 for testing each unit.

Hello Monie,

Have you performed a basic one second flasher test with the 18F4680 to ensure your configuration settings and project options are setup correctly. If any of these are incorrect then the end clock speed will be incorrect meaning the GPS baud rate will also be incorrect and no data will be received.

If the one second flasher runs as expected then maybe try adding this in a C code icon at the start of your program.

st_bit(intcon, PEIE);

Let me know how you get on.

Hi Monie,

I guess the problem is what BEN saying. Can you please post your program here so that we can have a look?

OK Ben Rowland
Here is the configuration settings.
And Codes GPS Time and Date:

I'm trying to get GPS EB056 to show coordinates as Longitude and Latitude
And trying to learn Flowcode E-blocks to know.
But get the following message, see below the picture.

Hi Monie,
It's a real problem..I can't even stop simulation. I have to close flowcode from task manager. I guess it's a simulation issue as the code compiles fine..So we would like Jonny's attention about this issue. This is beyond our control.

Hi Enamul
Many thanks for the reply.
Has updated Flowcode to version 5.4
And thank some others will look at problemmet.
I thought after many tests that problemmet was me;-)
