First I must Ask.

My unit had a small connector in it to some pins in the housing.
I used these but had to modify it becouse the pin 7 was used but in the
schematics
the pin 6 should be used instead.
3, 5, 6, 8, 4, 2 is the pins now used.

What whould I expect to see in the GPSSK soft?
It seems to try to communicate with the GPS.

I do a GPS Receiver Diagnostic and I get failed on Batery Backk-Up,
Timer/Clock and Almanac Information. The other things is Ok.

It seems that it is enable to communicate but as you said, in the wrong
mode.
How can I set the mode to NMEA if not the firmware soft works?
