Sailoog,
Thanks. The GPS is working now. I am having an issue with the compass in i2c. When I go to add a sensor, I can see that the address of 0xd has been detected. I select that address in the "detected address" box, then go to the "supported sensors" drop box and scroll through these. There are 12 sensors listed, though none appear to be for a magnetic compass. (I checked both on the internet and by adding each sensor one-by-one and checking what they do: nothing looking like a compass).
Am I missing something?
Will a compass sensor be added eventually?
Is there a problem here?
I could try wiring via the MacArthur hat, though I don't see a difference if the i2c has sensed the SDA/SCL pins on the 40-pin connector.
Regards, Loffy
