Check
1) did you choose right comport?
2) did you connect right TX and RX? Try-and-error interchange this.

I done this long time ago. Now, I directly connect to MCU. Ex using PIC and ChipKIT.

Agreed with shahrul, if possible show us the connection and setting in HyperTerminal. I do not have the GPS kit, but it should standard UART communication only.

[paikjen92]

i had double confirm that i had connect to right com port. i will snap the connection and upload it... it just simple connection rite... gt any others possibility o not

[paikjen92]

i would like to ask, how i have to wait for result..

[robosang]

Yeah, I triple confirm too

What is the baud rate?

[robosang]

Just briefly went through the User's Manual, notice there is a LED to indicate the transmit activity of GPS. Does the LED blink?

[paikjen92]

i set the baud rate as 9600bps.
yes, the LED is blinking countinuosly.
n i had try all the software..stil the same. there is no output.. i wish to get help from u...
