Interesting that I have a follower
Glad I can contribute!Parts they say, same reason V1 was replaced. There are a few slight improvements, RID, better low light performance and a new live deck, but for basic mapping I think previous versions are probably just as good.
That is not normal in my experience. Usually less than a couple minutes with a CORS base within 20k and even less when using an RS2/RS2+ on site.
What Shelby said. The downlink range and video resolution is supposed to be improved, but will make little difference if operating VLOS, or close. Autel has said that they plan to make a module available for RID for the previous Evo2s before Sept.2023
We went to a local NTRIP as our default flight mode. PPK logging is always on. The RS2+ is setup as a rover and base at the same time so there's really nothing to do but connect the RC to it's WiFi. Most of the time we can still achieve a fix with the Emlid gear so we just set an average fixed point and then occupy it via Reachview. Is SmartNET providing VRS? I think Autel Explorer might have some issues with our RTKNET VRS stream.
That seems to be the consensus. May end up doing just that. Thanks
Could be just this location. Will know more as we continue to use.
I'll have to look into that. Smartnet has many mountpoints, our standard was RTCM_Near.
All I can say is that it makes things run a lot smoother. You're mount point is right next to you. Jacking with data and GPS signals at least once or twice a week gets costly. Like I said before most of the time the Emlid receivers do have a good enough connection to set a point. If I don't have a known point I can rectify data faster in the office than I can in the field.
Thanks. Does the Emlid come with dual connections in case cell/wifi is not available? UHF and Cell? Is that what their proprietary setup is?
you could get 2 RS2+, to obtain a solid point... @elphtrooper is this correct if you have no known point and no internet? use 2 units to set a centimeter accurate point
Partially yes. They do have radio capability via LoRa WiFi like the other brands but none of the brands talk together so it would have to be two Emlid devices. I would suggest and M2 in an enclosure for the base and an RS2 or RS2+ for the rover.
thank you for that info, I will try experimenting with different mountpoints. I did notice recently with my Javad LS, which uses the same RTN setup on my EVO, that after a recent software update the Javad grabbed a MSM_IMAX mountpoint. It still is a RTCM 3.0 data stream, but it must be for the multi constellation use of the Javad. No issues with the JAVAD. I actually tried that MSM_IMAX mountpoint on the EVO but no go.
Yep, RTX is Trimble proprietary and what most of the CORS networks run on. We had to get a special plan from RTKNET to get CMR. Our mountpoints are also case-sensitive.
I assume you are connecting to the receiver itself? Have you tried to connect it to the hotspot on your phone? I have seen similar reports on the Emlid forum. You should go check that out.
Dumb enough, no. Yes, I had tried connecting phone to emlid hotspot, and tried both phone and emlid to an ipad hotspot, but never emlid to phone hotspot. And of course that seems to have done the trick. Thanks for pointing that out!
Sweet, glad it worked out. Networking is not a mobile device strongsuit and NTRIP services on GNSS hardware (especially drones) is hardly standardized so being at the forefront of this tech can be a little sketchy sometimes. We opted for these routers to run all the devices we carry. They are just small enough to fit in my safety vest pocket so I am a walking hotspot now and cut 3 lines of service to 1 (not including my phone) and have a much better piece of networking hardware.

Did you work this issue out yet? I am having the same issue with the V3 Smart Controller except that it connects momentarily and then I get "Invalid login or account" error then back to connected and so on.
