I have a Pacific Crest XDL external rover UHF radio I am trying to connect to the RS2 rover to add full UHF compatibility with other recievers when needed.
It has both Bluetooth and serial connectivity. I have connected the serial cable to the LEMO port on the RS2 but I cannot get the correction info to the RS2 rover or to show up in reachview.
In this case it is a Hemisphere GNSS S321 transmitting the RTCM v3 corrections over UHF and the XDL is receiving them fine. The serial connection on the XDL is set to 38400 baud.
There was another fellow that was trying to connect an external UHF reciever over Bluetooth but that thread was shut-down last month.
What settings have people been using for corrections coming over the RS-232 serial? I used UART bit no joy yet.
It would be great if there was a way to pair the Bluetooth XDL Rover with the RS2 and feed UHF corrections that way.
Incidentally, I decided to try my Trimble TDL-450 radio instead and is working fine as a reciever or the transmitter so there must be some settings in the XDL to adjust.
Weāll look into this once again, but I am not sure this is something we have control over. We had quite a few radios at our disposal to test. Some of them worked smoothly, some of them were not able to pair.
Will you have a chance to try connect the devices via Serial? Itās important to make sure they can work together at all.
Theoretically, it should work. It worked with Javadās previously and some other radios. From ReachView side, you just need to specify position output via BT. From the side of radio, some other settings should be tuned. I remember Javadās radios had an interface for configuration and weāve found the working settings pretty quickly.
Position output settings in ReachView are limited to choosing a channel for output - Bluetooth in our case. And a baud rate that should be the same as in the settings of a radio module.
