The Z3816A is sending time by default and will not communicate till put 
in SCPI mode.
You will need to try all baud rates to see where you can send the 
appropriate command .
Check out http://www.realhamradio.com/gps-satstat-software.htm. There is 
a DOS utility that does the magic, though I have not tried it as I am 
not lucky enough to have the box.
