Configure UPDATE Rate on adafruit gps breakout
Using the Adafruit gps breakout board with raspberry pi. Interfacing directly with the ttyUSB0 using python Serial interface or gpsd both give update data only 1 per second. The update rate says 10hz so im assuming i should get close to 10 updates per second. Am i missing some configuration ?

Re: Configure UPDATE Rate on adafruit gps breakout
In the downloads section, there is a command sheet for the module and you need to set the baud rate high enough to allow the update rate first or the command will be ignored.

Re: Configure UPDATE Rate on adafruit gps breakout
I am using a raspberry pi so cannot make use of the arduino library that is available.
However i did try the following on the terminal and i still get only 1 update per second
//setting baudrate
>echo $PMTK251,57600*2C > /dev/ttyUSB0
//setting update rate to 100 milliseconds
>echo $PTK220,100*2F > /dev/ttyUSB0
No Lucky, it continues to only send at 1 per second. Appreciate the help!
