However, using the UIFlow (1.4.5) I managed to connect and program the Finger unit normally. However, with the GPS unit, I failed to make it work. I do not understand why for the core works with the Finger unit but not with the GPS (same Port C).</p>

<p dir="auto">Fire Has PSRAM ..  use Port C PIN ..<br />
so it can't use Port C .</p>
<hr />
<p dir="auto">Fire 는PSRAM 이 있어요 그것이 C 포트에 GPIO를 사용합니다.<br />
그래서 C 포트를 사용할수가 없답니다.</p>

<p dir="auto">Your question alerted me. I used the GPS example provided by M5 for UiFlow. The LCD showed that the Time is 00:00:00, no data in Lattitude and Longitude, the Quality showed NO Signal. I tested it at home (inside my house). So is it possible that I have to look for a better place to get a stronger signal? However other devices using GPS work well inside my house.</p>
