GPS example (not LoRaWan?) available?

RAK19007 with 4631 module running on VSCODE with great results and will add now RAK12500 gps

is there a GPS example (not LoRaWan?) available?

or just confirmation that:

  • TinyGPS library should be used
  • gpsSerial.begin(GPS_BAUD, SERIAL_8N1, GPS_TX, GPS_RX);
  • 9600 baud rate?
  • should gps unit be powered by a special VCC pin? or being reseted before using?
  • GPS_TX and GPS_RX pins are?

WisBlock repo, examples:

Using I2C (faster, easier, lower power consumption

Using Serial, slower, higher power consumption

great! will try to use the I2C then and report as result are achieved :wink:

Ublox library as I2C example worked fine!

Slot A was recognized right away as I used the Wire.begin() for this I only had to define the specific SDA and SCL pins to make this work

thanks!

The RAK12500 GPS module should be powered by the 3.3V VCC pin from the RAK4631. It does not require a special pin, as it draws power directly from the board.
