Before you call support: what to have ready
A short checklist that gets your problem solved on the first call. Tick it off on the tablet or print it and keep it in the cab.
A product specialist can fix most problems in one call when they know your setup and what the app said. Run down this list first; it takes two minutes. Ticks are remembered on this device, and the page prints cleanly for the cab.
Time: about 2 minutes, plus a minute to send the logs.
Have this ready
- Logs sent, and roughly when: on an internet connection, tap Send in the LOGS box of Settings and wait for a green Sent! (step by step). Note the operator name you typed.
- App version: at the bottom of the Home screen (picture below), for example v1.5.4. It's also in the ABOUT box of Settings.
- Your kit: Full Automation, Guidance Only, Ditch Assist Lite or DIG™. For Ditch Assist Lite, which mode the app is in (orange LITE MODE banner or not).
- Tablet make and model (for example Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+).
- Receiver make and model, and how corrections reach it (your own base by radio, an RTK network, cell). For an Emlid Reach: RS3 or RS4.
- The fix the GPS badge showed: RTK, FLOAT, DGPS, GPS or NO GPS, and whether it was dimmed. Tap the badge for satellites and HDOP (what the numbers mean).
- The workflow you were in (Ditching, Tiling, Forming…) and the machine and implement.
- What you tapped just before it went wrong, and what you expected.
- The exact message, word for word, or a photo or screenshot of the screen (how to take a screenshot).
- Lights on the control module (is Status 2 blinking?) or the DIG module, if it's a connection or GPS problem.
- What you've already tried from the Fix a problem pages.
- Be by the machine with the tablet, if you can, so you can try things during the call.

- Settings. The fourth button down. LOGS and ABOUT are near the bottom of Settings.
- Pre-Flight Checks. Connection, GPS fix, satellites, corrections and Wi-Fi signal on one screen.
Look it up first
Search the exact message in the box at the top of this page, or find it in every on-screen message explained. Each one links to the fix.
