Case 1: Debugging a GPS Module
- Connect NEO-6M UART to PC.
- SSCOM32: 9600 8-N-1.

$GPGGA,123519,4807.038...ASCII data. - Use "Save Receive" to log a 1-hour route.
7. Tips
- Shortcut:
Ctrl+Z– Clear receive area. - Baud rate presets – Click the dropdown to select standard rates.
- Large data – Use "Send File" or increase receive buffer in settings.
- For AT commands (modems/GPS) – Send each command followed by
\r\n(Enter). SSCOM can append newline automatically: check "Send new line".
A. Multiple Pre-defined Strings (Shortcuts)
You will see a list of numbered lines (often labeled 1 through 10 or more). Here’s a quick guide for SSCOM 32 (a
- Purpose: You can save common commands you type frequently.
- Usage:
- Type a command in the input box next to a number (e.g.,
AT+RST). - Check the Hex box if it's a hex command.
- When ready, click that specific Send button next to the number.
- Type a command in the input box next to a number (e.g.,
- This is excellent for debugging Modbus or AT commands where you repeat the same query constantly.
