Topcon stopped working

Topcon X30 and agi 3 been working perfectly since 2012.
Think it last had a engineer to update it in 2014.
Went to switch it in yesterday and it will pick gps up, around 17 satellites but won’t connect to our base station.
Other 3 systems which are the same are working perfectly.

I’ve circled the base station, around 100ft away.
Tried disconnecting it for couple of hours, tried switching to egnos then back to rtk but still won’t connect.

Any ideas?
Thanks

The one i drove the time since last message was always 0/1 and the number of received messages counted up, have you checked the radio frequency and settings match the base (or one of the working tractors)

Sorry I no longer work for a topcon dealer.
If it’s an old agi-3 bear in mind it’s probably at least 7 years old so I’d try swapping the clip in module with one that’s working. At least then you can narrow it down
Best bet is to call LH Agro on 01480 496367.
The team there will sort you
