Thingy91 GPS not fixing

[Balamurugan]

Hi,

Recently we got Thingy91 and testing the GPS.

we have our custom nrf9160 board and GPS is working and getting coordinates in outdoor.

Im running the sample GPS application in Thingy91,but it is not fixing the satellites.

XMAGPIO configuration is used as below:

//thingy91
#define AT_MAGPIO "AT\%XMAGPIO=1,1,1,1,7,1574,1577"

Please help us to rung GPS application in Thingy91 .

Thanks,

Bala

You need to use a different MAGPIO configuration for the Thingy91. See this link.

Note: GPS signals do not usually penetrate ceilings or other structures. For best GPS performance, Nordic Thingy:91 should be used outside in an open space, far from sources of interference and other structures that may block the signals
