[GS407 U-Blox5 GPS 4Hz] Unable to acquire GPS fix

Posted by Alexandre Girard on January 21, 2011 at 1:43am

Hi All,

I'm contacting you because we've got a problem getting GPS fix on our U-Blox 5 GPS module.

http://store.diydrones.com/GS407_U_Blox5_GPS_4Hz_p/spk-gps-gs407.htm

We've used U-Blox u-center software to update firmware, and view the serial output from the module directly, but nothing helps to get a fix or to get satellite, even many hours after start.

We've used the diydrones tutorial - http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/tutorial-programming-your - to connect the Ublox to our computer using this Ublox adapter: http://store.diydrones.com/uBlox_Adapter_p/br-0008-01.htm

Has someone got more info about what could be done now?

Thanks a lot,

Alex & Marc - Tetalab

We have same problem too. Connected with u-center and updated firmware to new version, but still no luck. Can get it work (no GPS lock) .
