Re: XTreme EMS G2 GPS and Time problems

Thanks for the feedback and update. I'll investigate and resolve my conflict issues, but think I'll leave the GSA and GSV messages turned off anyway to keep the serial data to the minimum necessary for the AP, clock and Fuel system.

Currently I'm only sending the GGA and RMC NMEA me...

Xtreme EMS Data View Fails

Tried to use the Xtreme Data Viewer XTDV v2.0 and can't get it to work. Throws an "invalid floating point operation" during the file load, then says its loaded, then shows nothing but one red line (the same one as when it first starts. I load a second time and don't get the error, but it still shows...
