Beta firmware v06 0829 support for HAS on LG290P

GPS/GNSS

Hi folks,

Quectel sent me another new firmware, posted in this repo; look for LG290P03AANR01A06S_PPP_TEMP0829.zip. It’s also available below.

LG290P03AANR01A06S_PPP_TEMP0829.zip (2.4 MB)

This time based on v05 so all the new features (GST, elevation, etc) are ostensibly supported. From the file name, I hope this firmware IDs itself properly as v06 so we can track it a bit better. Also, from Quectel: “Entering the PPP floating stage means that convergence has occurred.” so I think we can more accurately tell when we’ve reached convergence.

I have not used or tested this firmware. See the original post for a good discussion of the HAS/E6 accuracy and performance of the v03 0812 test firmware. I don’t suspect much improvement with this firmware, but it’s great to see Quectel cleaning up the annoying bits (firmware version, features added back) in this version. If anyone wants to test it and report their findings, there are many folks here who would benefit from hearing about it.

Thanks.
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve had no luck.
The postcard hangs with the word Rover and won’t advance.
I tried v2.2 and v2.3 and couldn’t advance.
I look forward to your comments.

I read that Quectel reports that the new version 6 only works with the original dpi datum and they’ve removed wgs84.
That’s too bad.
I haven’t been able to find out what the original dpi datum corresponds to.

Best regards, Angel
