c.
Battery level and charger status.
d.
LoRa mode status.
e.
Positioning quality: type of GPS fix and accuracy in meters, lower value - greater
accuracy.
f.
The distance between rover and base station.
g.
Satellite count: number of visible GPS and GLONASS satellites, more satellites - better
conditions, the value can vary from the amount of satellites used for calculating
location.
13.
Perform system test.
Take RTK Bee Station and FIeldBee outside and place them above
ground level on an open sky leaving at least 1 meter in between. Make sure that your
device (smartphone/tablet) is connected to the FieldBee (12a) all the time and the Radio
(LoRa) connection is established (12d). Check the values 12e and 12g, in a short time you
should receive accuracy >1 meter for the GPS (normal) fix and 15-20 satellites. Wait some
time, fix type should change to Float RTK or RTK, now you have configured antenna for
centimetre level accuracy. If you move far away from the base station (12f) a correction
may be lost (more than 2 km).
a.
If you receive poor or no result in 10 minutes, please refer to the troubleshooting
chapter.
