Hello everyone,
I understand that the pin of the terminal board is not compatible with the AssetTRacker v2, but I do not think that this limits me to directly connect the terminal board to the pins that the GPS requires to operate these are TX, RX, GND, 3V3, D6.
I have a problem with this connection, the terminal cannot advance when the line of t.gpsOn () passes; and it starts to restart, but when I take out the D6 pin cable the program continues and the GPS obviously does not work, as long as I connect the D6 pin the button restarts and falls back into the same part of the code.
What is really the problem with the Boron?
I have an Electron that has no problem with this same configuration (without plugging the electron into the GPS terminals, if not by cables (TX, RX, GND, 3V3, D6).
I start to try with cables because i have the same issue with the classic adapter. I bought this because in the page said it’s to be compatible with legacy accesories. After this, I read on this great community that the accelerometer will not work, just the GPS, and even this is not working. BTW, I’m ussing this library: AssettrackerRK and the examples on this.
