Lilygo 7000g gps not working #212
Comments
Possible but unlikely. I have quite a few of these units and every single one has worked great. What is the output you are getting? Just so you know - This thing can take a while to connect. Being on the ground floor in a big building could prevent you from getting signal from the satellites....That caused problems for me. But being indoors in most places hasn't been an issue. '+CGNSINF: 1,0,,,,,,,0,,,,,,4,,,,46,,' This is an example output of trying to get signal. I believe '46' is the number of GNSS satellites in range for location triangulation - though don't quote me. This is along the lines of what you will get from the CGNSINF command when it connects. Please be aware that the GPS actually has a cold start and a hot start as well. Cold start could take a while. For me it's about 20 seconds to 10 minutes - at which point I just reset the modem. Hot start could take less than 5 seconds. So connecting after you've already connected shortly before will always yield the fastest results. |
I got this to work now. Thanks to @DevinCarpenter |
Glad to hear it. For future reference the comment detailing the commands I use is here |
I have the 7000g version, and tested the gpstest. Power to the antenna is working via the AT command.
Just that no lat/long data is shown.
Could it be the antenna is broken?
