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](https://sparkfun.github.io/SparkFun_RTK_Firmware/firmware_update/).
The RTK Facet, Facet L-Band, Express, and Express Plus utilize a 0.96" high-contrast OLED display. While small, it packs various situational data that can be helpful in the field. We will walk you through each display.

The firmware loaded onto the ZED-F9P, ZED-F9R, and NEO-D9S receivers can vary depending on manufacture date. The RTK Firmware (that runs on the ESP32) is designed flexibly work with any u-blox firmware. Upgrading the ZED-F9x is a good thing to consider but is not crucial to the use of the RTK products.

The firmware on u-blox devices can be achieved a few different ways.

Not sure what firmware is loaded onto your RTK product? Open the [System Status Menu](https://sparkfun.github.io/SparkFun_RTK_Firmware/menu_system_status/) to display the module's current firmware version.

The firmware on u-blox devices can be updated using a [Windows based GUI](https://sparkfun.github.io/SparkFun_RTK_Firmware/firmware_update/#updating-using-windows-gui) or [u-center](https://sparkfun.github.io/SparkFun_RTK_Firmware/firmware_update/#updating-using-u-center). A CLI method is also possible using the ubxfwupdate.exe tool provided with u-center. Additionally, u-blox offers the source for the ubxfwupdate tool that is written in C. It is currently released only under an NDA so contact your local u-blox Field Applications Engineer if you need a different method.
The [SparkFun RTK u-blox Firmware Update Tool](https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_RTK_Firmware/tree/main/u-blox_Update_GUI) is a simple Windows GUI and python script that runs the ubxfwupdate.exe tool. This allows users to directly update module firmware without the need for u-center. Addtionally, this tool queries the module to verify that the firmware type matches the module. Because the RTK Facet L-Band contains two u-blox modules that both appear as identical serial ports, it can be difficult and perilous to know which port to load firmware. This tool prevents ZED-F9P firmware from being accidentally loaded onto a NEO-D9S receiver.

The code will only run on Windows as it relies upon u-blox's ubxfwupdate.exe. The full, integrated executable for Windows is available [here](https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_RTK_Firmware/raw/main/u-blox_Update_GUI/Windows_exe/RTK_u-blox_Update_GUI.exe).

All device settings are stored both in internal memory and an SD card if one is detected. The device will load the latest settings at each power on. If there is a discrepancy between the internal settings and a settings file then the settings file will be used. This allows a collection of RTK products to be identically configured using one 'golden' settings file loaded onto an SD card.
