Issue with getting fix

[timd1971]

In the USA, I use GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and SBAS and get a fairly quick fix with open clear skyview. I.e. open field, or up high no tall adjacent buildings.

Placement | Reach RS/RS+

I wouldn’t just go hooking up any cable in case of pinouts not matching … could fry things.

Specification | Reach RS/RS+

There are lots of posts about the external serial port.

Reach does not charge through cable

That CBL103 in his photo is for serial data connection. Not for charging. Let’s see what happens with his CBL101. ; ) Yours may not be grounded or connected properly or your flux capacitor isn’t powerful enough? : ) Make sure your PIN 1 & 4 on USB aren’t crossed also. Check for continuity. Hopefully you don’t have an incorrectly wired (terminated) to the physical pins on the reach cable or even in the RS unit.
