Why does my 6400 think it has GPS?

When first powered on the 6400 has a solid yellow light. Only pressing the power button has the radio restarting. The radio is located remotely and does not have GPS installed. How do I tell the radio there is no GPSDO installed?

    Somewhere along the way somebody clicked under the GPS install section of the radios configuration that there was a GPS installed. Just go to that section and if you have to install it again then remove it. Or just remove in the ssdr software. You would possibly need to be at the remote location... i did this locally with my original 6500 when i bought it.. as i didnt know if it had GPS onboard or not. It half heartedly indicated it was looking for it but didn't find one. It went back to normal operation once again after removal. Erika K0DD

    I have a computer located remotely and if I start the SDR software and check under GPS both install and unistall are greyed out

    I would submit a help desk ticket. Flex Support will have seen this situation before.
