Great job! I too can confirm compatibility with FieldGenius and ReachRS on my Topcon FC-500. FieldGenius is designed to connect quickly and simply to ReachRS and I was impressed with how straightforward the bluetooth connection was from within FieldGenius app. It’s exciting to see Emlid getting a foothold in the survey world!

Hi . Hope i am posting my enquiry in the right place and someone would help . my nephew is very much interested in getting Reach system . In his surveying he needs to stake out reference points . I.e from cordinates to find the point on the land guided by the surverying system . I wonder if Reach could do that . Also he needs to use local cordinate system instead of the universal . Is that possible in Reach . Thanks

Hello,

I believe you can now use FieldGenius on an Android device of your choice. MicroSurvey should have pricing on their website.

Hi Bernardo,

Yes, Reach RS+ can be configured the same way to integrate with Field Genius. However, we also have a separate guide about it.

Does this compatibility also apply to FieldGenius for Android?

(I ask because FG-Android is no doubt compiled from a separate code base that FieldGenius for Windows.)

Hi,

Yes, FiledGenius for Android works with Reach devices as well. The only thing that differs is that it requires ERB position output format instead of NMEA (some of our users reported it works more stable that way). But also, you can always work via the Lefebure app as we suggest for all Android apps.
