Step 4Testing on Windows
In order to test things like this on Windows I always use Hyperterminal. It comes installed by default most of the time. I think I had to install it from add/remove programs once on a system running Windows Server.
The initial settings that you will need to configure Hyperterminal with are normally located in the manufacturers manual. For the GPS15L, the default baud rate is 4800bps.
I have included a screen shot of the serial to usb adapter that I used with my robotics gps project. It should be mentioned that this was done on a Windows 2000 machine. The driver support for this cable is rather limited. See the previous step for the adapter I reccomend.
