iOS - No Satelite Fix #5

Closed johnvants closed 1 month ago

Hello, I cannot seem to get this project to fix to satelite using iOS. I have stable BLE connection. Any suggestions or advice?

Thanks

Hello,

First thing would be to check the GPS reception using the official ucenter program, this can be done by flashing the passthrough.ino sketch on your device. You should be able to configure the device and so on.

Some things may go wrong if you are not outside or not using a good antenna. I know that the device works with antennas such as 712-ANT-GPS-SH2-SMA from Mouser OR FXUB63 from TAOGLAS

Let me know if you face any other issues

Thanks for your help. I ran the passthrough which was a good idea. Get a solid lock to 10+ satelites, 115200 baud at 10hz. Still no luck with getting fix to satelite in Racechrono. I'm a bit stumped to be honest. Not sure what else to check but perhaps it's a UUID issue. If you have any other suggestions? Otherwise appreciate your help so far.

Cheers

Unfortunately, I do not own any GPS module nor Iphone application to test my code again ;(

However, I know it works with Iphone since a person I know is using it.... I asked for feedback/screenshots.

I suggest to test your setup with the Android version (if you can), there is a free version which can help you validate your setup.

I'll keep you updated as soon as possible.
