GPS on X20 ethos Last firmware

[Mobidick1966]

HELLO, X20 latest firmware.
-1: loss of signal by regulated interval (20seconds) on the gps HOURS line.
-2: how to encode the corespondent GPS coordinates of the map which is programmed for the widget ??? The rotary knob does not work, the + and - neither

Just a question. How have you connected a GPS to your X20. The X20 does not have a GPS of its own as standard.

Hi have you tried entering the coordinates with the dial wheel before choosing the picture. And also adjust the travel for the dial in the bottom. That worked for me on the 1.0.11 version

My GPS ... connected on RX .

This takes a long time to set each coordinates.. There is no other way?

I have not tried this, but can you plug a GPS sensor into the smart port on the X20? No idea, I seam to recall discussion of doing this with OpenTX radios in the past but never followed up on it.

This web sit has a map generator which embeds GPS coordinates. Give it a try.

I ran into a similar problem testing a GPS sensor on both a X8R receiver and a GR6 receiver, I had to change the update interval of that sensor datum and it stopped giving me the problem. On mine, using both a X12S and a X10S with the ISRM modules upgraded and Ethos 1.0.11, it defaulted to 10s and I changed the update interval to 1s (which is too fast, but haven't experimented with it yet to see what works best). Haven't tested with 1.0.12 yet, though...

When I used the map from this site, it still looks like I need to set the map coordinates, which require you to figure out the coordinates for the extents of the map as opposed to the center that the web site generates.
