Hey Florin,

I have a question about your program.
I have a GPS that works whith 4800bps. How can I change it in your program? And where do I have to do it.

By the way, great project.

thanks

belal what kit are you referring to ? the butterfly can be programmed trough a simple serial cable, or trough a more advanced programmer like MKII, or with any other AVR programmer.

javar, I don’t know the details for the project because I’m not the author of it, but i can tell you this: the AVR Butterfly dev kit is based on a ATmega169 MCU it has nothing PIC related on the board.
And the butterfly needs to be connected to the pc for programming than it works on its own.

javar, it’s gonna be hard to put together such a project if you don’t know stuff about microcontrollers and avr’s. First you should read some ebooks on programming the AVR.

good luck
