Thanks Enamul ,

I have tried the RS232 examples given by you,but i am not able to do the same as in training example active component 3.
And the GPS time and date example shows wrong time and date. why so? Again the example GPS position shows error <SimMacroCall2>...Please tell me how to solve these problems.

Hi Tuhina,
Can you post the example flowcode file so that I can see what's going wrong? GPS time and date should be right..which GPS module you are using? I forgot that just couple of days earlier we noticed an issue..
