The RTK device will present a webpage that is viewable from either a desktop/laptop with WiFi or a cell phone. For advanced configurations, a desktop is recommended. For quick in-field changes, a cell phone works great.

L-Band decryption keys are valid for a maximum of 56 days. During that time, the RTK Facet L-Band can operate normally without the need for WiFi access. However, when the keys are set to expire in 28 days or less, the RTK Facet L-Band will attempt to log in to the 'Home' WiFi at each power on. If WiFi is not available, it will continue normal operation.

## Adding a Display to the RTK Surveyor
85

86

While the RTK Surveyor works very well using only LEDs, it is possible to add an external display. The [SparkFun Micro OLED Breakout (Qwiic)](https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14532) can be attached to the Qwiic connector on the end of the Surveyor. At power on, the display will be automatically detected and used.
Sending the `~` character to the device over the serial port will trigger a system status report. This is a custom NMEA style sentence, complete with CRC.
