# 65R Sensor

## Firmware

Verify the sensor firmware is up to date. 

{% hint style="info" %}
65R Firmware version 4.1.3 or greater is required for operation with the RTK-PPK module. 
{% endhint %}

## Software Configuration

The 65R sensors require the proper software configuration to be selected for use with the RTK-PPK module. This tells the sensor which aircraft the sensor is flying on, which GPS information to use, and to log the proper data.&#x20;

Use either of the following based on your aircraft model:

* IF800 - Sentera GNSS
* IF1200 - Sentera GNSS

{% hint style="info" %}
Using the proper aircraft model is important because this information is used to compute the antenna offset

{% endcontent-ref %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
If the sensor configuration is not set to the correct aircraft model and configuration the RTK-PPK system will not function properly.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
When using the Sentera GNSS configurations, the RTK-PPK module is required to initialize the sensor. Without the RTK-PPK module, the sensor will not get green LED indicator lights, and will not be ready to capture data.

If you intend to do non-RTK-PPK flights with the sensor, either change the config to the non-Sentera GNSS version, or fly with the module as normal.&#x20;

## Inspired Flight Compatibility Settings (LEGACY)

Inspired Flight aircraft automatically detect Sentera payloads and apply the necessary parameter changes. &#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
IGC v1.3 or greater is required for automatic payload detection. \
\
Use the compatibility settings linked below if using older versions of IGC.&#x20;
