New user here. I have a V4.5 AIO using a BNO085 and UM980. I have UDP configured, the IMU and Steer are green in AGIO while the GPS antenna icon is not green. Also, while the IMU icon is green I am not getting any roll information from the IMU. What do I need to set up in AGIO for the GPS antenna to go green and to get a roll reading from the IMU?
Welp, got it figured out. Bit of a long story. When I bench tested my V4.5 I was in simulator mode and didn’t pay attention to the GPS indicator in AGIO. When I installed the unit in the tractor the Steer, IMU and GPS icons were green in AGIO but I couldn’t get a roll reading. Roll was stuck at 0. AgOpenGPS did give location and speed data but would not achieve a RTK fix. After much fiddling around I noticed after I turned off and removed the steer board from the tractor while watching AGIO the IMU and Steer icons turned red the GPS icon stayed green. How could this be I thought? Plug the steer board into the computer in the house and GPS is grey with green IMU and Steer. After some more head pounding I realised my tablet, a FZ-G1 has a built in GPS and AGIO had never connected to the GPS on the steer board, it was connecting to the tablet GPS. It took longer to realize this then it should have probably due to the frustration I was having with RTK2GO having connection issues all day today. I kept thinking my lack of RTK fix was due to the RTK2Go connection issues when all along AGIO had never connected to the um980. Since the GPS never connected to the steer board the teensy couldn’t send the roll data. So back to the drawing board to find out why the GPS wasn’t connecting. I have another UM980 and V4.5 board so I started swapping parts and reconfiguring teensys. Finally had enough so went to sort cattle and get hay for the sheep. While working on that I remembered a post I had read several months ago about a baud rate mismatch causing a poster issues. Came back in, ran the configomatic and verified it was configuring the baud rate correctly at 460800 but the baud rate wasn’t saving. After a power cycle the baud rate was back to 115200. So I manually configured the um980 in Uprecise and now the gps icon is green and I get a roll reading. Sucks to lose a day of field work but I did learn a few things.
TLDR: Baud rate on UM980 com3 needs to be 460800
