INTRODUCTION
Product description
The RTK antenna receives satellite signals and sends correction data to the robotic lawn mower.
EN
EGO
EGO AURA-R2 description (Fig. A)
The EGO AURA-R2 contains a robotic lawn mower, a charging station and a RTK antenna. The robotic lawn mower and the RTK antenna receives satellite signals for positioning. The RTK antenna is stationary and sends correction data to the robotic lawn mower to get an accurate position for the mower. The mowing zone is made virtually in EGO Connect™ app by operating the mower.

INSTALLATION
Examine Where to Put the RTK Antenna (Fig. C)
You can install the RTK antenna on a wall, follow the basic principles (Fig. C).
Installation process on app will help guide you in selecting appropriate location. Where possible choose an open area with no obstacles blocking views in any direction if possible (within at least the radius of 2 m).
■ Try to keep the sky directly above the antenna unobstructed by trees or roofs.
If full openness on all sides cannot be achieved, at least keep the southern sky clear when in the Northern Hemisphere, or the northern sky when in the Southern Hemisphere (If possible, try to keep the east and west sides clear of obstacles).
■ Install the RTK antenna on a fixed object that cannot move or rotate.
CAUTION: If there is a lightning rod nearby, do not install the RTK Antenna higher than the lightning rod.
CAUTION: Do not install the RTK Antenna on a flagpole. Movements of the antenna will affect the correction data sent to the product with the accurate position.
NOTE: If the RTK antenna is installed on a wall, the top of the antenna must be above the wall. Metal objects can cause interference with the antenna signal.
NOTE: Do not fix the RTK antenna in place until signals have been verified and location deemed suitable by app process.
Assemble the Charging Station and the Antenna (Fig. D1, D2)
You can select appropriate assembly way according to the RTK antenna installation location:
■ Install the RTK antenna by wall-mount pole on a wall, refer to D1.
■ Install the RTK antenna directly on a wall, refer to D2.
NOTE: The RTK antenna can be connected to either the charging station or the power supply via low-voltage cable.
Select the RTK Antenna Place for Installation via App and Secure the Antenna (Fig. E)
Fig. E illustrates the RTK antenna mounted on the wall by wall-mount pole.
To pair RTK antenna with mower
To pair the antenna with the mower, follow the instructions below:
To relocate RTK antenna
If you want to adjust the antenna or the wall-mount pole:
Tap : (Device Details) > Others > Relocate Antenna in app
Follow the guidance to relocate the RTK antenna and make sure the antenna always points straight up to the sky.
NOTE: You will need to remap all work areas when the RTK antenna has been relocated.
■ Make sure the mower is switched ON and the antenna is plugged in.
■ Push the mower into the charging station, make sure proper contacts between the mower and the charging station. Please wait until the charging status indicator flashes GREEN or solid GREEN.
NOTE: Make sure only one mower and antenna powered on at the same time so you know which RTK antenna paired to which mower.
The antenna will pair with the mower automatically, and the antenna status indicator flashes GREEN, meaning the antenna has been paired with the mower.
NOTE: Make sure that the maximum distance between the RTK antenna and the robot is 260 m.
NOTE: The maximum distance decreases if there are objects between the RTK antenna and robot.
To locate RTK antenna
- Follow the instructions in app and tap Start, move the antenna to the specified position, keep it upright for 1 minute and observe the signal strength. If the scores is more than 60 in the app, the antenna can be fixed here. If the scores is less than 60, please follow the instructions to find a better location. We recommend following the guidance in app to check for an even better location with a score greater than 80.
- Secure the antenna
- For the antenna mounted by the wall-mount pole, refer to ③a.
- For the antenna mounted directly on the wall, refer to ③b.
- When clear signal achieved as detailed in app, Tap Locate antenna in app, the antenna status indicator will glow solid GREEN, meaning the antenna location is fixed and the antenna function is normal. Once you have located the antenna, follow the instructions to proceed with the mapping.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Product

TROUBLESHOOTING
LED Status Indicator on the RTK Antenna
The LED status indicator on the RTK antenna shows the current antenna status:
| LED Status Indicator Antenna status | |
| Solid RED Antenna has electronics error. | |
| Solid GREEN | Antenna is powered by power supply or battery (battery is not in charged), and antenna function is normal. |
| Solid GREEN for 10 seconds, and flashing once every 2 seconds | Antenna is powered battery (battery is in charged), and antenna function is OK. |
| Flashing RED/GREEN alternately, flashing once every 2 seconds | Antenna is powered on normally, and no pairing with robot. |
| Flashing RED, flashing once every 2 seconds | Antenna has no communication with robot. |
| Flashing GREEN, flashing twice every second | Antenna site is in selection, and the score in app ≥ 60 |
| Flashing RED, flashing twice every second A | Antenna site is in selection, and the score in app < 60 |
| Flashing GREEN for 1 second every 10 seconds | Antenna is in sleep mode. |
| Flashing RED/GREEN alternately, flashing twice every second | Antenna update is in progress. |
