RKidecha

Hi,

I have uploaded the agps code into the feather.

After that when I tried to add an LTE device got the below error. can you guide me on what to do next?

Hardware connection:

1) Only connected LTE antenna

Do i need to connect GPS antenna too?

Hi RKidecha

You first have to allow the nRF9160 Connect to nRF Connect Cloud. Once connected the you can add to your account.

You’ll need one to get a GPS fix. Not needed to add the board to nRF Connect Cloud ☁️

Hi Jared,

Getting confused in the process.

In your documents, you mentioned only sim and antenna is needed so only connected those two.

Do I need to update the modem firmware like we used to do in Thingy 91 before load the asset tracker code?

after flashing the code there was no LED indication to get acknowledge about the connection. How i understand it got connected to nrf connect cloud? Generally how much time it will take. And without adding device how it will connect to nrf cloud?

Connect where? nRF Connect Cloud? That is correct. For GPS to work though, it’s 100% necessary to have a GPS antenna.

Generally no.

The “notification” happens over the console. I suggest you have the console running while you use the example.

Also @RKidecha make sure your SIM is activated. Nothing will work without that!
