Note: You can load the latest firmware or release candidate over the air. Alternatively, there is a GUI process as well.
Note: We recommend doing a factory reset after upgrading firmware.
Known issues:
- Firmware update from the Web Config page using AP Config and Ethernet Config is not working. This is a known issue and is because of the new networking layer. This will be added in a future release. To update the firmware, use the Web Config in WiFi mode (not AP), use the Firmware Update GUI, or use the Serial Configuration method.
- Postcard Base Mode is not transmitting the correct amount of RTCM. This will be fixed in a future release.
Changes in this release:
- New Network layer and update to ESP core 3.0.7. This allows individual system consumers (ie, NTRIP Client, OTA updates, etc) to access the three possible network layers (ethernet, WiFi, cellular).
- Add cellular support (RTK EVK) and failover. If ethernet and WiFi aren't available, cellular is automatically started. Additionally, cellular is stopped if WiFi or ethernet become available.
- Add support for new RTK engine: mosaic-X5
- Add support for new RTK engine: LG290P
- Add new RTK Products: RTK Facet mosaic, RTK Facet L-Band v2, RTK Facet v2, RTK Postcard
- Add dedicated Bluetooth command channel for CLI configuration over BLE
- Add support for 5-way navigation interface (RTK Postcard)
- Add SparkPNT logo and branding.
- Adjust partition sizes: decrease SPIFFs to 100k, APP0/1 to 4MB. This gives RTK Postcard a bit more flash space.
- Feature - Better handling of which corrections are being used in RTK Fix based on correction priority.
- Feature - Only configure GNSS receiver at boot if settings have changed.
- Feature - Add automatic system reset after X minutes added to System menu.
