  Thanks for your quick reply,

  Should I try doing

  require("iTracker").setGPSOn(true,print)­
  

  and then, after 15 minutes, if I run the same code again it should show proper data?

  I am powering the device using usb cable from the computer. Will that not give enough power for the GPS to function?
  If not, should I connect a battery anywhere in the range of 3.3-18V to the charging interface/solar panel connector (P2)?

  Hi,

  The documentation and reference on http://www.espruino.com/RAK8211 is very short, I would like to get more info on the API and access to the Espruino/RAK8211 source files (I have only found hex files)

  Thanks!

  I have successfully connected to my board using the web IDE, and tried getting data from the sensors as shown in http://www.espruino.com/RAK8211

  The GPS is not working as expected, when I do

  require("iTracker").setGPSOn(true,print)­
  

  , I get

  ={
    line: ""
   }
  

  insted of

  /* { "time": "23:59:43",
    "lat": NaN, "lon": NaN,
    "fix": 0, "satellites": 0, "altitude": NaN } */
  

  Please help me debug this issue.
  Thanks!

  I have made it work.
  These are the steps to do it here for future reference:

  1. Select the "Use code" checkbox, browse the location of the espruino hex file
     
  2. Press "Both" , this will Wipe and then Program the firmware

  Hi,

  I am new to Espruino and would like to try it for programming my RAK Wireless RAK8211-NB board (Quectel BG96).

  In the official RAK wireless docs it suggests flashing espruino using nRFgo studio. The problem is that when I tried to get nRFgo studio from Nordic's site using this link , it sais that the application is Windows only, and I am using a Mac computer.

  Is there any other way of flashing Espruino software into this board?
  I don't have access to any Windows PC or virtual machine ATM and I also wonder if it willl work using a Windows VM in Mac OS.

  I have found the app rknrfgo (MAC os version of nRFgo) on https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/b/blog/po­sts/tools-for-os-x-development and installed it on my MAC. However, I do not understand correctly how to flash the device, as the GUI is different thant the nRFgo studio one. I have attached a screenshot.

  Should I just select the "Use code" checkbox, browse the location of the espruino hex file and then press Wipe and Program?

  Thanks guys
