Check Bodnar reference clock status

 

There are not many Unix tools to check whether your Bodnar is working properly. But we found one:

 

https://github.com/simontheu/lb-gps-linux

 

Go to the directory where you want to install the tool and do:

git clone https://github.com/simontheu/lb-gps-linux.git

cd lb-gps-linux/

make

gcc -o lb-gps-status lb-gps-linux-status.cpp -lstdc++

 

With this command you get the status of the Bodnar device.

sudo ./lb-gps-status /dev/hidraw0

 

Output:

Leo Bodnar GPS Clock Status
