Hi Alexey, I updated the firmware to version 1.1 and I have a problem with receiving the NTRP correction. If RX recived any corrections, the device will automatically restart. Can you please help me somehow?

Hi Matej,

Thanks for reporting!

It seems we’ve found what could be the cause of such behavior. The devs are already working on it. Once there’s any news about this, I’ll make sure to let you know.

Best to reflash back to previous version 1. With Reachview version 7.15 the fix appears stable

Thank you for your reply, but i update Reach View to version 7.15 and now i´ dont know how to reflash to 1.0 firmware version via Reach View. Do you have a manual on how to do this? Thanks
