Franck replied to Henry Gan's discussion GPS working or not working?
"Hello!
I'm not sure that my GPS Mktek 1.6 is logged to my IMU.
When you power up your IMU,  is the B led on or off? Mine is off. But after some minutes blue Led from GPS stops blinking and becomes fix. B Led is always off. Is it normal?
Thanks"
