Does Ultimate GPS shield remember config with battery backup

Post by ninja2 »

With battery backup fitted my Ultimate GPS shield keeps the RTC running across power cycles OK, but it seems to forget my configuration settings occasionally / too often.

Should the Ultimate GPS shield with battery also remember my configuration settings (NMEA sentences, update rate) across power down/power up cycles?

Or do I have to send my specific $PMTK setup commands each time it is powered on??

TIA

Yes, the GPS module remembers its configuration when it has a battery.
