PREPARATION
What do you need:
1. A mobile computing device with Wi-Fi access - laptop, tablet or smart phone, something
light you can carry in the field.
2. Reach RS documentation (hardcopy is easier to refer): https://docs.emlid.com/reachrs/
3. 2 units of Reach RS, one for the Base and the other for the Rover. Label them and the
case with stickers for clarity.
4. A level foundation to hold the Base firmly. It can be a tripod. For the Rover, it can be a
more mobile aid such as a rod with a levelling bubble attachment.
5. Only 1 Wi-Fi operating at any one time to avoid unforeseen problems. In my case, a
Robo-vacuum emitting Wi-Fi signals gave me a lot of grief.
Here we are pairing a laptop with Windows 10 and an iPhone with its own mobile data.
•Note: Reach and Reach RS are different. For Reach, go to https://docs.emlid.com/reach/
•Get ready your network name and password for your laptop or iPhone.
•Each Reach RS has its own network, eg reach:xx:xx. The password is emlidreach.
•Pairing can be done in the shade. Not necessary in the open or the field.

2. Power on your Reach RS Base, assuming you designate your 1st
unit as the base. Don’t power on the other unit to avoid
confusion.
3. Open the laptop network, select the Base hotspot. It appears as
reach:xx:xx.
4. Type network password: emlidreach.
5. Open a browser. Type http://192.168.42.1, enter. This is the same
for all units. You will see a Welcome to ReachView window.
6. Click on the blue circle with + sign to add your Wi-Fi to the Base.
If successful, the ReachView window will show that ASUS
is Saved (paired with the Base).
Return to your network, connect the laptop to ASUS.
In the ReachView window, select ASUS, click Connect.
During first setup you will see the ReachView Updater. It
is a separate app that handles self-testing, time
synchronization and updates of the main ReachView app.
Click on it. ReachView updater will check for software
updates and will install them.
Press Reboot and go to the app! button. Wait while
device reboots.
Go to the browser, type reach.local, enter. If successful, you should see a
Status window as shown in the next slide.
