EGNOS satellite changed

Try using future 123

That won’t give an accurate position for auto steer. Line just jumps.

No, but it will give the signal.
Sometimes Future 136 can not be fixed for a whole day.

Future 123 doesn't work for me at all.

Sounds like Trimble need to employee some better software engineers to write firmware for their agricultural receivers. What an absolute shower.

Dropped out yesterday still cant get signal for trimble 500 saying 8-9 sats but still not going green . scratching head .

Same here with Trimble 250, but why does ag leader in sprayer work, with what I believe to be same signal level, no doubt to do with settings etc?

I have read the entire thread, so apologies if I've missed something. Have an AGI3 (I think!) AGCO Autoguide 3000 system running through a MF Datatronic screen. Lost EGNOS completely today after it being not very good over the last few days. Now understand why, but should this system pick up all three EGNOS satellites. If not, is there an option in the software to swap the PRN number? I think from reading the thread that I may need a firmware update, but just checking. TIA.

@Agribuggyboy you can upload your firmware file to the cloud using WeTransfer for free...

https://wetransfer.com

Then just post up the resulting link. You generally can't post .exe etc files to the forum due to security issues.

 

[Agribuggyboy]

Sorry you will need to contact your Trimble dealer/seller directly for the firmware update

Do they still support the 500 model for firmware upgrades

There is an EGNOS app you can instantly check system status etc all from your phone...

 

[Agribuggyboy]

Just got the app it looks good and saves having to keep checking the website. Which is best prn123 or prn136 ? I have turned both on is that ok or will it cause a conflict, or will auto select just choose the strongest

Now that you’re running the latest firmware from Trimble, if you follow the instructions in your own post above, you should be A-OK

I don’t work for Trimble so I can’t do that.

Here’s a download link for the EZ-Guide 250 and 500 software:

Install at your own risk...it worked fine for me.
