Ultimate GPS V3. How to use Serial with Arduino Uno

Post by rogervr94 »

Hi! I just got my new ultimate GPS v3 and I have tested with an Arduino Uno and a Mega. It works totally fine using softwareSerial and HardwareSerial. However i'm working on a project in which I may use the regular Serial pins for the GPS. Is there any way to use pins 0 and 1 fot Rx and Tx without using SoftwareSerial? I'm already using SoftwareSerial for a 3g module, that's why I need to connect the GPS to the regular Serial pins on the Uno.

Thanks

Pins 0 and 1 are the Hardware serial pins on the Uno and you can use them as long as you don't need to program while they are connected to the GPS.
