Hi, if the GPS is flashing and then stops flashing, that could mean that it is getting a GPS fix (the LED stops flashing once a fix is attained). But, it may also mean that the GPS is shutting off for some reason.
Could you post a photo showing how you have things connected? Also, if you run PC live mode with USB, does the information in the lower lefthand corner of the PC software, say that a GPS is detected? |

Matthieu,
"If you wish to log GPS data, choose “Hardware, Choose Parameters to Log in the Recorder” in the app, and select “GPS Parameters”. This indicates to the recorder that GPS data should be recorded. Note that you DO NOT need to record GPS data to see it live on the Seagull Dashboard." jerome

Hi, and sorry your problem continues. Can you confirm that if you log data for a while, and then download the data, and click "play" in the software, what message appears in the lower lefthand corner of the software?
Note that the recorder will not log data if USB is connected. |

Hi Matt,
That is probably the issue. Is the voltage exactly 6V, or considerably over 6V? Sorry for the trouble. |

Hi Bill
When the rx pack is full it's about 7V and that doesn't work. With a lower tension that look like good. |

Hi, that's definitely the problem. The lower voltage should completely eliminate it.
