Hello,

I have an Inspire 2 and Inspire 2 remote.
I purchased a GPS module and mounted it to the remote.
I then purchased the Focus Handwheel 2 and the stand for it.
I plug the stand into the available port on the GPS module but the wheel does not light up.
If I plug the handwheel into the remote controller it does light up.

How can I use the Focus Handwheel and the GPS module at the same time?
I'm often shooting from boats and need both the GPS module and the ability to pull focus.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Thank you for the response. When you open the DJI Go 4 app, was there a symbol of FOCUS handwheel like the one that is shown in the picture below?

Doesn't the CS have one GPS receiver inside?
Do you really need the external GPS module?

Hello sorry for a late reply.
If I plug in only the Focus Handwheel I see the icon.
If I plug in the GPS Module to the controller, and plug the Focus Handwheel into the port on the GPS Module, I do not see the icon.

There is enhanced functionality with the GPS module.
I've flown without but find it really advantageous. Especially when launching\flying from boats.
Active Track also works much better with it.

I see. If that's the case, your GPS Module must be broken. I highly suggest you to replace it.

How can I test to see if the GPS module is working (or not)?
With the Focus Wheel plugged in directly, I see the icon inside the DJI App.
But I don't see an icon when I plug in the GPS module.
Please advise.

Thanks very kindly!

Hello. I was able to test the GPS module and it is working. ( https://forum.dji.com/thread-107059-1-1.html )
But, when it's connected, and I connect the Focus Wheel to the GPS module, the Focus Wheel stops working. No LED light.
Please advise.

I might be caused by the connector on the GPS module for the Focus Wheel. There's no power output reflecting for the Focus Wheel. I highly suggest replacing the GPS module.
