Since there seems to be no documentation for configuring the TM171, here is one.

It seems that Roboshop is the only distributor for now, shipping from Canada, USA or UK

So the TM171 is not directly plug and play. You must configure it using this software:

Once connected click “scan” then “open”

Save and it should be ready to go.
Most users say there is no need for sensor calibration although it’s possible to do if someone experience unstable roll or heading in a vibrating environment.

Not true :slight_smile:

We have a large quantity in stock, both in the standard version and in the version with a soldered adapter (plug&play) that allows you to plug it into the STD PCB in place of the GPS module.
We ship everywhere

Oh yeah I forgot you @Krisu !

For all of those that’s easier to source from Europea, navisklep.pl is an excellent source for the TM171.

They are also an excellent source for all other AOG related part!

Thank you @Pat for the tutorial! I’d like to hear more on how people are connecting the IMU to AgOpenGPS. Adding in an arduino or directly to the teensy etc…
