First Setup

Intro In this tutorial, we will walk you through the following steps:

• Install the ReachView 3 App
• Connect and place the GNSS antenna
• Power Reach
• Connect to Reach

• Perform firmware update To do that, you will need Reach itself, an external GNSS antenna, a Wi-Fi network with Internet access and a smartphone.

• install ReachView 3 To manage Reach, we recommend using ReachView 3. Get it from the App Store or Google Play before updating.

Power up Reach

To power up your Reach, follow the steps below:

1. Take Micro-USB <–> USB cable that comes with the package.
2. Plug Micro-USB end of the cable into Micro-USB port on Reach and plug another end into 5V power source such as USB power bank, USB wall adapter or USB port of a computer.

After the device is powered up, the blue LED will be blinking for about 30 seconds and then becomes solid. Reach is now broadcasting Wi-Fi.
