Setting Up Reach RS/RS+ Units as Rover and Base with LoRa in RTK Mode

[@DavidSL64]

Good video, very step by step, wish it was available last year!

[@kenneth238]

got mine 3 months ago. the survey kit. good to go using fielddgenius and survce. nice one emlid!

[@TeXMex-ji6qg]

Emlid works with carlson survce? With a data collector or phone? Thank you

[@fabianstevenne]

Wich are the RTK settings for the base ? At 2:03 we can see very quickly that you put kinematic for the positioning mode, fix and hold for the GPS mode and Off for the Glanass AR mode. Shouldn’t be static for the positioning mode and On for the Glonass mode? Thankx

[@Emlid]

Hi Fabian, please check out this guide in our docs: docs.emlid.com/reachrs/quickstart/base-rover-setup. Here you can find detailed and actual info about RTK settings and configuration for RS+ base and rover. If you need any assistance with the setup, please feel free to drop us a line at [e-mail].

[@RaymondMLV]

Another question if it is set to Base 1 Hz, because in the Rover an Update rate is set at 5 Hz ..... Shouldn't it be the same value for both antennas?

[@Emlid]

Hi there! If you mean the Update rate in RTK Settings, it can be different. Base requires a slower update rate as it's stationary and doesn't need the same frequent amount of data. As the rover is usually moving, it needs a more frequent update.

[@veeraragav9772]

Can i connect multiple rovers with Reach M+ with one Base Reach RS+ ?

[@BENBOU47]

Can make a tutorial video for the new Emlid flow app It's very different from the Reachview 3 app

[@Emlid]

Thanks for the comment. We are working on that!

[@RaymondMLV]

A doubt, for the Glonass constellation in Chile it should be 0.5 Hz or 1 Hz ?, for the Emlid Reach RS +, Thanks

[@Emlid]

Hi there! GLONASS is a global system, so we'd recommend you to keep settings on our recommendations. Please check this guide to find all configurations: docs.emlid.com/reachrs2/common/quickstart/base-rover-setup/.

[@livaatdr3789]

Bonjour, quelle est la précision du rover connecté a la base rtk si on fait des levés dans la foret dense ? Merci !

[@Emlid]

Hi there! Since Reach RS+ is a single-band receiver, getting cm-level accuracy in a forest would be quite challenging. Multi-band Reach RS2 can work under trees' leaves, but it really depends on the forest and its density. It'd be great if you could provide us with more details about your working conditions at [e-mail], so we can make sure if Reach is a good solution for your work.

[@josefreja7649]

I have one question. If I have to go on doing survey and purchasing emlid reach RS2 using my phantom 4, for the RTK and PPK processing method, do I still to purchase separate M2 and a lora antenna? Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

[@Emlid]

Hey there, Phantom 4 has closed hardware and doesn't allow integration of third-party components. Therefore, we recommend placing ground control points when mapping with a Phantom drone. Please feel free to contact us on [e-mail] if we can be of any assistance! docs.emlid.com/reachrs2/common/tutorials/placing-gcps/

Does this equipment work for the rural property georeferencing process?

[@Atlanticaerialworx]

So we have done this where we first had the base on for 30 minutes getting corrections before going around to get fixed gcp points on the rover. We then had a trial version of ezsurv and support was logged in to help us get started. As soon as she saw that I had the rover on for o ly 20 minutes she said it was not on long enough and I would have only 10cm accuracy. The rover needed to be on at least 30 minutes. If this is true how come this isn't indicates in your video?

[@Emlid]

Hi there! This video explains RTK workflow where the base and rover need a real-time correction link. As we see, you work in PPK mode. It means that both units should record raw GNSS data simultaneously throughout the whole work process. This video about PPK might be helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHXbfqSErdKDi7c Even if you work in PPK, there's no need to record data for 30 minutes (or any other specific time interval) to achieve good positioning results. Please provide more details about your workflow and project goal at [e-mail]. We'd be happy to assist you.

[@titoiorio]

en la configuracion de la base en rtk aparece GLONASS AR MODE en off, esto es asi o existe un error? saludos

[@Emlid]

Hi! These settings are not active for a base unit, so it's the correct behavior.

[@bibanboss]

Hi, I tested it in an urban environment. Not in a big city, therefore, with the height of the houses on two or three floors. The parent company provided me with the GPS already with the specifications entered. I checked them again. The instrument is given for a radio transmission of about 3km in an urban environment but after about 200 meters it is difficult to fix. It always stays in float. The radio transmission does not satisfy me

[@Emlid]

It seems that this issue is caused by environmental conditions, not by an insufficient range of LoRa radio. If the solution stays in Float, then Rover receives corrections from Base, but it gets not enough good satellite signals to provide a Fix solution. Please note, Reach requires a clear sky view 30 degrees over the horizon to provide precise results. You can send us the Base and Rover raw data logs at [e-mail] so we could investigate your case more thoroughly.

hola , excelente pueden hacer algo para replanteo de lotificaciones acabo de comprar un par de estos rtk pero falta informacion para esta tarea especifica

[@carlostarazonalopez5849]

En la web de Emlid indica que es compatible con el Magnet Field, dicho programa viene instalado en la colectora de Topcon.

[@carlostarazonalopez5849]

@emilio placencia escalona Hola Emilio, te agradeceria si tienes mayor informacion al respecto. Sabes si hay manual o tutorial?...Saludos

[@carlostarazonalopez5849]

@emilio placencia escalona agradezco tu respuesta, dicha aplicación sirve para levantamientos en rtk?

[@carlostarazonalopez5849]

@emilio placencia escalona Hola Emilio, tienes algun correo o numero de contacto....gracias

[@chtwdb]

I looking to sell my set at a significant loss. I have never been able to get a fixed signal. Its been pretty much an expensive paper weight.

[@Emlid]

Hi there! We can understand your concern, and we’d be happy to look into this with you. To start, does this issue related to establishing RTK link or achieving centimeter accuracy?

[@chtwdb]

@@Emlid achieving centimeter accuracy. I can see that I am receiving correction data from the chart in the software. I have updated to the latest version. still cannot get a fixed status.

[@Emlid]

@@chtwdb Would you mind giving us a chance to troubleshoot this? Please email us on [e-mail], and our Tech Support team will help you to find suitable settings.

[@christiankarteyquarcoo2828]

@chtwdb please were your challenges addressed?

[@chtwdb]

@@christiankarteyquarcoo2828 No, The units is just sitting in their case.

[@rendyyoshioka7444]

why sometimes emlids can break up on even though the signal is good???

[@raiannudalo]

my rs+ dont get signal from base in 300meters..what was the posible mistake..and i cant connect to beidou..anybody suggestion please?

[@Emlid]

Hi Raian, 300m is far from the limit for LoRa in our products! We saw you've sent us an en email. Our Application Engineers will be in touch soon to troubleshoot this.

[@jvsim5272]

Do you need wifi to use this rtk?

[@jonathanpiper-green3814]

No the reach RS has an inbuilt industrial band radio
