[Vnsupport-users] trying to get the test program to work

[Aisaku P. <ai...@ai...>]

Hello,

I am trying to use the test program and the support files that you provided
to use a pull data from a vectornav dev kit setup to a netbook running
Ububtu 9.10 32-bit.

 

When I run the test program after compiling with make as:

>>$ make vntest

>>$ ./vntest /dev/ttyUSB0

 

The output of the program is:

>> Asynchronous output type is: -1

>>Failed to set output type

>>Error is: VNSupport: Error in Communicating with device

 

I can reach the device using GTKterm (set to spit out YPR measurements) @
115200 baud rate. If I comment out the attempt to change the output type,
the program errors out with -1 codes on the next operation as well. I think
this is most likely a device setup issue, but I have no idea what the
setting is or how to fix it. Ideas?

 

Thanks,

Aisaku
