Starting with firmware v1.7, WiFi-based configuration is supported. For more information about updating the firmware on your device, please see [Updating RTK Firmware](firmware_update.md).
*Configuration page via WiFi*

The RTK device will present a webpage that is viewable from either a desktop/laptop with WiFi or a cell phone. For advanced configurations, a desktop is recommended. For quick in-field changes, a cell phone works great.

# Connecting Bluetooth

Surveyor: ![Feature Supported](img/Icons/GreenDot.png) / Express: ![Feature Supported](img/Icons/GreenDot.png) / Express Plus: ![Feature Supported](img/Icons/GreenDot.png) / Facet: ![Feature Supported](img/Icons/GreenDot.png) / Facet L-Band: ![Feature Supported](img/Icons/GreenDot.png) / Reference Station: ![Feature Supported](img/Icons/GreenDot.png)

SparkFun RTK products transmit full NMEA sentences over Bluetooth serial port profile (SPP) at 4Hz and 115200bps. This means that nearly any GIS application that can receive NMEA data over a serial port (almost all do) can be used with the RTK Express. As long as your device can open a serial port over Bluetooth (also known as SPP) your device can retrieve industry-standard NMEA positional data. The following steps show how to connect an external tablet, or cell phone to the RTK device so that any serial port-based GIS application can be used.

*Pairing with the 'Express Rover-5556' over Bluetooth*
*Pairing with the 'Torch Rover-DFAE' over Bluetooth*

Open Android's system settings and find the 'Bluetooth' or 'Connected devices' options. Scan for devices and pair with the device in the list that matches the Bluetooth MAC address on your RTK device.

When powered on, the RTK product will broadcast itself as either '[Platform] Rover-5556' or '[Platform] Base-5556' depending on which state it is in. [Platform] is Facet, Express, Surveyor, etc. Discover and pair with this device from your phone or tablet. Once paired, open SW Maps.
