FAQs

See below for answers to frequently asked questions about LEO100.

Getting Started​

Do I need to install software before I can use the LEO100?​

That depends on the purchased configuration.

  • Development kits purchased with a host computer include all required software pre-installed
  • Systems purchased without a host computer require software installation before starting the tutorials.

See the Software Installation page for the full setup process.

Can I use the Locus Lock GUI, or do I need to use the CLI?​

The Locus Lock GUI is the recommended starting point. It provides the most direct workflow for configuring the system, verifying hardware connectivity, and collecting or processing data.

CLI workflows are also supported and are intended for production, automation, embedded deployments, and advanced workflows.

Are GNSS antennas included with the LEO100?​

No. GNSS antennas are required for operation, but they are not included with the LEO100 hardware package.

What antennas does Locus Lock recommend?​

Almost any triple-frequency GNSS antenna is compatible with RadioLion, but antenna choice significantly affects performance.

Antennas Locus Lock has qualified for use with RadioLion:

This list is not exhaustive.

How do I know whether to use the Beginner Tutorials or the Advanced Tutorials?​

The Beginner Tutorials are intended for initial familiarization with the standard GUI workflow. The Advanced Tutorials assume prior familiarity with configuring inputs, outputs, and basic PpRx operation.

Updates and Maintenance​

How do software updates work?​

PpRx can be updated from the GUI or by rerunning the device installer from the CLI. The Locus Lock GUI is updated by rerunning the latest GUI installer. See Update Software for the supported workflows.

Where can I find the latest feature and fix information?​

The most recent feature and fix information for the PpRx GUI and CLI can be found in the Release Notes.

Troubleshooting​

What should I do if the system is not producing the output I expect?​

Start with the basics:

  • Confirm the hardware is connected and powered correctly.
  • Verify that the correct software components are installed for the LEO100 variant in use.
  • Verify in the GUI or CLI configuration that the intended outputs are enabled.
