Questions during Signal Connection

Q1: The software status shows that the satellite is 0. 

Detailed description: 

In open sky view, the status shows SAT: 0, RTK status: NoGPS

Possible scene and solutions:

① After startup, the SAT is always 0.
Solution: Check whether the antenna port is loose or unplugged. If not, replace the cables or antennas.

② There is a problem in the ignition process.
Solution: The ignition voltage drop caused by battery aging is too large, which does not affect the use and will return to normal later.

③ SAT becomes 0 while driving
Solution: The battery voltage is unstable, add a voltage regulator module

Possible scene and solutions:

① External radio mode

Solution: 

• Check the installation configuration of the base station, try to install it at a high place, without anything blocking it, increase the transmit power of the base station, and try again.
