Issue Details

I am using the PXI-6683 or PXI-6683H Timing and Synchronization module. How can I acquire GPS location information using these 2 modules?

Solution

You can acquire GPS location information using PXI-6683 or PXI-6683H, including longitude and latitude in degrees and altitude meters.

NI-Sync  provides the shipping example GPS Location Velocity.vi that shows how to use the GPS functions.

The shipping example can be found by navigating to the Help tab in LabVIEW >> Find Examples >> Hardware Input and Output >> Timing and Synchronization >> Time-based >> GPS Location and Velocity.vi
