Hi Rooco
On my RPI4 and the new hat 2, I’ve installed OpenPlotter.
Gyroscope, pressure, temperature works, but no input from GPS. NO external antenna attached.
I have:

Hello Andreas,
GPS data is sent, but you obviously do not have a position fix.
Please check the following:
- The internal GPS patch antenna needs free view to sky
- Do not place any high-power radio equipment next to the HAT to avoid interferences
- Do not cover the HAT with any metallic material (ship, enclosure, etc.)
- GPS might need up to 15 min to get an accurate position
- BNC connector is unconnected, right?
Regards,
Thomas
Hi Thomas
- There is free view of sky.
- RPi is placed away from other devices and even tried battery powered.
- Nothing attached to the BNC
- Waited for more than a day – same result, no gps fix.
Andreas
You can return your HAT so we can test it. Please get in contact with our support team via e-mail so we could discuss the next steps.
