GPS not working
-
Hi,
I was wondering what could be wrong. Im trying to get the GPS to work, Ive tried loading the gnss.ino and gnss_tracker.ino example apps and it never seems to get a lock on the satilites.Here is the serial debug output for gnss_tracker.ino. The last part shows its not getting any gps data.

@cybermah said in GPS not working:
18:39:58
Hi @cybermah
:
Judging from the log you have been running the sketch from 18:39:58 to 18:40:14 which is only a few seconds.
To get the a fix you need to be outside under clear sky and wait longer thand that, maybe a minute or even longer. Depends on the conditions and if you have made a cold start.Please try this and see if it helps.
