Mission Planner - Geo-Fence Breach Error

Bastien · August 19, 2014, 9:18am

Hi Guys,

I’m running 3.1.5 with a Quad. I have calibrated all good and I have managed to arm previously but now as soon as I connect mission planner with my telemetry it comes up with Geo-Fence Breach.

I have set the home location outside my house and standing right next to the copter it will not arm. It simply says Geo-Fence Breach in this female Microsoft voice.

I’ve turned off Geo-fence in Mission planner so I’m not sure why. Be great to get your help on this I’m so close to testing and first flight

Thanks a million guys

@Bastien,
How about providing either tlogs and/or data flash logs to help troubleshoot your issue.
Regards,

I also have got this problem. I laid up my APM 4 months ago after successfully fitting a new GPS with off board compass and several test flights. Today I fired up Mission Planner and foolishly did an update to the latest version but when I connected the APM in order to run through the TX settings I cannot get the APM to arm due to the Geo-Fence Warning. I have tried to reset Home and disable the geo fence but I still get the warning. I uninstalled the latest version of MP and went back to the original but it still wont arm. Also in the latest version of MP the setup wizard will not allow the firmware to download???

I have the same experience this occurred straight after the update. I’m just researching how to post logs then I’ll post them up. Thanks for the quick replies guys

Guys I can’t seem to get logs as the thing won’t arm It just tells me geo-fence breach. If I click on download logs via mav link it fails with cannot get log list. If I try and get telemetry logs it says none found.

I followed the instructions listed here: copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/downlo … flash-logs

[quote=“Bastien”]Guys I can’t seem to get logs as the thing won’t arm It just tells me geo-fence breach. If I click on download logs via mav link it fails with cannot get log list. If I try and get telemetry logs it says none found.

I followed the instructions listed here: copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/downlo … flash-logs[/quote]

I went back to an earlier mission planner and finally got the APM to arm but had to disable pre arm check. Must be the latest MP causing the prob

Seems like a few people on the net are having the same issue. I’ll try your suggestion with the earlier version with pre-arm disabled.

Is their a way to report bugs on mission planner so the devs can have a look?

Kind Regards,

Bastien
