Refer to the Hovermap Emergency Procedures for more information.
1 | Battery Percentage | Indicates the remaining battery level to help keep track of the available runtime or estimate how much time is left before the Hovermap’s battery needs to be recharged or replaced. |
2 | RC Status | Indicates the strength and quality of the signal between the robot and the remote controller. This indicator changes dynamically as the drone moves or encounters obstacles that could affect the signal. Tap on this indicator to display the name of the connected robot (if connected to a DJI drone) or the robot model (if connected to an Astro or Astro Max). |
3 | RTK Status | Displays the RTK Status in real-time from GNSS receivers connected to Vehicle RTK and Backpack RTK devices. The RTK Status descriptions are shown in the table below. |
4 | Satellites in use | Represents the number of GPS satellites the Hovermap is currently communicating with. A strong GPS signal indicates a reliable connection with satellites, which is essential for features like autonomous flight, Return to Home functionality, and waypoint navigation. |
5 | Network Status | Indicates the strength and quality of the network connection to Hovermap. A weak signal suggests potential issues such as distance limitations or signal interference. Tap on this indicator to show the current network connection. An option to change the connection/hostname is also provided. |
RTK Status Descriptions
RTK Status | Description |
|---|---|
RTK Fix | This is the best status you can achieve with RTK. It means the receiver has successfully locked onto enough satellites and received corrections that allow it to determine a very precise position. An RTK fix is highly accurate, often within a few centimeters. |
RTK Float | This means the GNSS receiver is using RTK corrections to improve GPS accuracy, but it has not yet achieved a fully stable and accurate fix. It is still refining the position, so there might be slight inaccuracies. |
RTK Single | This status is less precise and is typically used when RTK corrections are not available or when lower accuracy is acceptable. RTK Single can also display when the GNSS receiver is not receiving corrections from the base station. If you are in an environment where RTK Fix or RTK Float is expected, and are only receiving RTK Single, check your GNSS Receiver settings to ensure corrections are configured correctly. |
RTK Offline | The GNSS receiver is not sending all required GPS information to the Hovermap. This can occur when there is a loss in communication with the base station or correction source, such as during signal dropout or when the receiver is not connected to a correction service. You can try the following troubleshooting steps:
|
No GPS | The GNSS receiver is online but it has no RTK or GPS signal. |
