NEO-6M GPS module loses its accuracy on arduino uno

Question

I have a NEO-6M GPS module and I want to use it for date,location and time. Now, when the NEO-6M is set default to 115200 baud rate and when I use ttl converter to get signals from the GPS module it works just fine but when I try to use Arduino Uno and read signals from it, it sends garbage values.

I want to lower the baudrate of the GPS module to 9600 but I can't seem to find any way to do It. The connection to the rx and tx pins is very very short so I don't think that it is causing the problems.

THe code

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>



void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);  // Begin serial communication with the PC
  Serial1.begin(115200);  // Start software serial for GPS module at 9600
}

void loop() {
  while (Serial1.available()) {
    Serial.write(Serial1.read());  // Forward GPS data to the Serial Monitor
  }
}

Answer 1

I got it working by reading the documentation and this code

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

// Create a software serial port on pins 10 (RX) and 11 (TX)
SoftwareSerial gpsSerial(10, 11);

void setup() {
  // Start the software serial communication with the GPS module at 9600 baud (default for NEO-6M)
  Serial.begin(115200);
  gpsSerial.begin(115200);
  delay(1000);  // Allow some time for the GPS module to initialize

  // Send the PUBX command to change the baud rate to 19200
  gpsSerial.println("$PUBX,41,1,0007,0003,19200,0*25");

  // Wait a moment for the command to take effect
  delay(1000);

  // Update the software serial to communicate at the new baud rate
  gpsSerial.begin(19200);
}

void loop() {
  // You can now communicate with the GPS module at 19200 baud
  if (gpsSerial.available()) {
    Serial.write(gpsSerial.read());  // Forward GPS data to Serial Monitor
  }
}
