Would that be because I had the screen resting in the steering wheel and antenna resting on the armrest? 🤔
That's steering angle... top number is "where autosteer should be steering", bottom is "where you are currently pointing". So either your wheel angle sensor has serious issues, or your CPD is way off.

Hmmm, all I’ve done is plug in the pcb, antenna to the toughbook , theres no wheel angle sensor connected anywhere,

maybe I’ve changed a setting accidentally in simulator mode?🤷‍♂️

If no WAS, don't worry about it then - the lack of reading would explain it.

Is it possible to change the path where it looks for fields from the documents folder? I'd like it to point it at Google drive to work at a desktop and multiple tablets without thinking about it.

I expect some discipline would be required to manage the risk of opening the same field on multiple devices.

Yes, change in the 3-bar menu at top left

Follow this - no COM ports needed
Had 5 mins to look at this again today - I might be being thick but when in the configurator as shown in the video, nothing comes up in either the teensy or serial ports box, so I can’t flash the firmware.
I’ve connected the all in one PCB via Ethernet cable, could this be something to do with it?

The config tool works over USB, not ethernet. Plug the Teensy into the tablet (remove from PCB) and do the same with F9P.

Which RAM mounts are people using for the Panasonic CF-D1 tough book?
Would have preferred to not use a window suction mount for the fear of it falling but the Puma is pretty lacking in places to mount a bracket .

Pumas windows would be too curved for a suction to stay on with weight if a Panasonic all day. You can get the little bracket to mount screens on for them only £75 from a dealer

Struggling to find anything online .
The CF-D1s are quite heavy and bulky so not many off the shelf mounts fit.

This does:

Hi everyone, having a day of testing today and having a fiddle with the steer settings. Just wondering am I right in saying that this number is the accuracy?
