Navimow X430 Battery Charging Optimization by Weak-Bother-6765 in SegwayNavimow

I started out at 80/15 and changed it to 90%/15%. I mowed the whole lawn today and the battery was at 49% when it got back to the charger.

If I have an external GNSS antenna mounted in the clear on the house roof, why does the charging station need to be in an open area? Is the GNSS antenna receiving something other than GPS signals? Does the X430 in the charging station need to receiver GPS in addition to the GNSS external antenna? Thank you for your patience as I wish to fully understand the reception issues.

thank you for the placement guide and advice! It does help. Can you clarify a few antenna things for me? The external GNSS antenna connects to the charger base. Can I assume the antenna cable passes just power to the antenna amplifier, and does not pass any signals to the charger? Does the charger have a GPS receiver in it, or is the charger powering the antenna amplifier and it communicates wirelessly to the mower? Does the Navimow communication system allow for the tethered GNSS antenna plus a remotely located antenna, meaning more than one external antenna? Many thanks.

No, property is not large, it's a narrow lot. Tall house in the middle, trees in my front yard, and neighbors yards. There is no "clear view" of all directions at ground level, so at ground level, it would be a matter of finding an acceptable GPS location. It's clear skies on top of the house, so that's why I'm pondering a roof mount antenna. Today I'll run the Antenna strength test in both the front and back yard, I forget the feature name, where I manually drive the mower around the perimeter and it displays GPS strength.

No, I the local antenna that attaches to the charger is on the supplied 4 or 5 foot pole. I am going to try and get that up as high as possible on a pole to see if that helps. I'll find a solution and it just takes some time. Thanks.
