Example:
#include \
// define GPS timeout when connecting to satellites
// this time is defined in seconds (240sec = 4minutes)
#define TIMEOUT 240
// define status variable for GPS connection
bool status;
void setup()
{
// Open USB port
USB.ON();
USB.println(F(\"GPS_1 example\"));
// Set GPS ON
GPS.ON();
}
void loop()
{
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
// 1. wait for GPS signal for specific time
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
status = GPS.waitForSignal(TIMEOUT);
if( status == true )
{
USB.println(F(\"\n----------------------\"));

}
else
{
USB.println(F(\"\n----------------------\"));

}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
// 2. if GPS is connected then get position
