Using GPS Module and Trying to Understand Baud Initializations

geometrix

All,

I just connected GPS Module (#28146) to a BS2p24. I downloaded some code for the GPS module and I have been carefully reviewing it. I have some questions in regards to some of the syntax:

T4800 CON 188
Open CON $8000
Baud CON Open | T4800 ' Open mode to allow daisy chaining

I understand that the author was defining constants.

1. What do each of these delcarations do?
2. What is Open mode?
3. What is daisy chaining?

Thanks,
Neal

Check out the help file in the syntax manual. Open means it sets the pin "open collector" and daisy chaining means you can have more than one stamp on the same set of wires.
