I installed the latest firmware on the GP-E2. When I connected the GP-E2 to the XF400 using the Canon supplied USB cable, I couldn't get the GPS data onto the XF400 even if I have enabled the GPS tracking on the XF400 setup menu. The LED light for the battery and the GPS turns on every now and then and the GPS light blinks 3 times. I tried this outside but I cannot get the GPS coordinates.</P><P>I have no other ideas on how to get it to work. I even left the GP-E2 outside for at least 5 mins, but it still could not get the GPS data. Could you please help me get my GPS to work?</P> Thu, 31 Mar 2022 14:33:55 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Video-Accessories/Unable-to-get-the-GPS-to-work-on-my-Canon-GP-E2-with-the-Canon/m-p/367288#M29 umalifam 2022-03-31T14:33:55Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Video-Accessories/Unable-to-get-the-GPS-to-work-on-my-Canon-GP-E2-with-the-Canon/m-p/367526#M31 <P>Hi there,</P><P>Even if the GPS is not connected to any camera it should be able to find location data, so one thing I would suggest is to take the GPS unit (and camera if you'd like) for a drive to see if there is somewhere else it can better establish a connection.

I upgraded the firmware. I tried to leave the GP-E2 outside for about 30 minutes but it still can’t get a signal. It is evident that it is defective so I decided to return it.</P> Sat, 02 Apr 2022 14:38:39 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Video-Accessories/Unable-to-get-the-GPS-to-work-on-my-Canon-GP-E2-with-the-Canon/m-p/367543#M32 umalifam 2022-04-02T14:38:39Z
