RTK Status LG580p

GPS/GNSS
1

I have an LG580P SparkFun Quadband GNSS RTK with Heading Breakout - LG580P (Qwiic) - SparkFun Electronics that I purchased a couple of months ago. For the first few weeks it worked fine but now the RTK status drops out and needs to be rebooted to get it back again. sometimes it goes for days without being able to get an RTK fix. I updated with the Beta software update that I found in another thread but this made no difference. Any ideas on what the issue may be.

Has the weather shifted, or are you testing somewhere with more obstacles than previous?

Does rolling back to the previous firmware change behavior?

I haven’t tried the previous firmware but it’s in clear sky and picks up about 32 satellites on average. im not sure where I can download the previous firmware

To be clear, are you on this beta software? SparkFun_GNSS_LG580P/Firmware at main · sparkfun/SparkFun_GNSS_LG580P · GitHub

Is there a ‘revert config’ or similar option in the menus to reset the basic i/o stuff? (I don’t have any quectel products to test their software with, but that’s an option in u-center that often helps get the units back to a mostly normal state)

I’m not sure how to revert it back to the original version
