LG290p and Galileo has

Hello, do you have any news about Galileo has with the LG290P?
Thanks

This thread covers most of it Unicore Galileo HAS bug? - #27 by Sparkfunny (use PPPNAVA)

I think that’s for a different chip.
My question is about the LG290p.
Thanks.

Edited, see below!

To my knowledge, the LG290P is capable of receiving E6 signals but the RTK engine does not yet take these signals into account. A firmware update to support HAS/E6 has been promised but I don’t have any ETA from Quectel right now.

Quectel support informed me that they will release an update for the LG290p in mid-May to receive Galileo HAS fixes.
Does Sparkfun need to modify the firmware to take advantage of these improvements?
Or is this already planned?

We’re not sure what changes will need to be made to the firmware until we can test out the Quectel changes. Once they release, we’ll be sure to follow shortly.

The v05 firmware has been released. You can get the zip here. There is no HAS fix yet, but you can output the raw HASE6 message.

I’m amazed that Quectel reports one thing and does another. The information was that the new firmware with the Galileo HAS corrections would be released in mid-May. Not only the ability to use raw messages on the E6 frequency, but also the native use of those corrections.
I don’t know why it took so long.

what they refer to in the pdf as
“Optimized and compatible with more RTK differential services”?

I like what you’re thinking.

Wouldn’t it be neat if they (Quectel) mistakenly referred to HAS as RTK instead of PPP, since we do use it in “real-time” ?
Doubtful, but it doesn’t hurt to hope… LoL.

It left me wondering what they mean by “more RTK differential services.”
They don’t clarify what they’re referring to in the PDF.

Hi, Quectel tells me on the Forum that the update will be after June.
Do we believe them?
Regards

I wouldn’t bet the farm on it but June isn’t far off, so at least we’ll know soon!

As I have already stated I fear that the limit is the hardware configuration of the module; however only your Team can shake them to deal with this feature (HAS_E6).
It is rare to find a company providing technical and commercial support like Yours.
Thank you for what you are doing for all this time …
