    Hello,

    My K7 will not latch on to the gps. I have re posotioned the gps sensor several times but the led remains flashing indicating that it is searching. There is no gps data, speed etc logged on the recordings.

    Thanks…

    Hi Bob,

    Its located face up in the rear plastic duckbill (z900rs).

    No metalwork or wires in the vicinity.

    Thanks.

    Hi Tony,
    If you place the GPS receiver loosely on top of the duckbill, you will have reception.
    Make sure that the GPS receiver has a clear view of the sky. No tall buildings around you and do not stand under a canopy or in a garage.
    The first time that the GPS receiver gets a fix can take a long time, sometimes several minutes. If you are standing still, this will happen faster than when moving. Once there has been a first fix, the next time the K7 is started, there will be a fix faster.
    The connector of the GPS receiver, is it properly secured?
    If the problem persists, contact the seller of your K7.

    Morning Hans,

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    I have tried all configurations but still no joy.

    To be fair to Innovv their customer support has been excellent and we have exhausted all avenues. They are sending out a new gps module so hopefully that will do the trick.

    Cheers

    Tony…
