Introduction

Bonezegei GPS Arduino Library is a library that allows Arduino users to easily interface with GPS modules and obtain location data. The library supports NMEA Sentence, and can parse and decode the messages from the GPS module.

1. Using Serial Port

This applies if the microcontroller has two serial ports since one of them is used for debugging. However, this example shows how to retrieve data from a GPS module using a serial port.

*/

#include <Bonezegei_GPS.h>
//declare GPS connected to Serial2
Bonezegei_GPS gps(Serial2);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  gps.begin(9600);  
}

void loop() {
  if(gps.getData()==GPS_VALID){
    Serial.printf("lat: %lf lon:%lf\n" , gps.latitude,gps.longitude);
  }
}

2. Using Bonezegei_SoftSerial

GPS Connected to Software Serial pins.The SoftSerial can be declare as RX only for GPS by delcaring with only 1 pin the SoftSerial is set by default with receive pin,<strong style="font-weight:normal"> Bonezegei_SoftSerial softSerial(25);</strong>

#include <Bonezegei_GPS.h>

// RX TX
Bonezegei_SoftSerial softSerial(25,26);
Bonezegei_GPS gps(softSerial);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  gps.begin(9600);  
}

void loop() {
  if(gps.getData()==GPS_VALID){
    Serial.printf("lat: %lf lon:%lf\n" , gps.latitude,gps.longitude);
  }
}
