Ublox lea-6h no GPS lock

Posted by Damo on April 28, 2013 at 10:28am

Hello,

i bought the ardumega 2.5 + and the ublox gps together from 3drobotics.

The GPS will not lock onto any satellites. I am powering both right now over USB from my laptop. I am outdoors in a clear sky. I ran the CLI gps test. it says the ublox is OK and then keeps returning lat long of 0 and an altidude of -17 metres.

Am i doing something wrong or have i got a defective unit?

thanks

Damo

    If you've given it more than three minutes to lock, it should have got lock. Has the LED gone solid on the uBlox? (That signifies lock and it should be reflected in the Mission Planner). 

    If it won't lock, it may be defective. Contact customer support at help@3drobotics.com
