* Real-Time Status Monitoring:
* GNSS fix type, number of satellites, and position accuracy
* RTK status indicators with LED sync
* Battery level and temperature readouts
* Device firmware and hardware info
* Tilt Compensation (FW 1.7+): Accurately capture GNSS points with up to 60° of pole tilt using real-time IMU calibration. View compensated coordinates and heading directly in-app.
* Custom Configuration Options:
* Set antenna type, offset, and height
* Adjust position/satellite info streaming rates (1 Hz / 2 Hz)
* Personalize your device name for easier tracking
* Firmware Updates: Manual firmware update flow to keep your GLRM receiver running the latest features and fixes.
