20.1.4 Radios for Real-Time
Typical uses • To transmit real-time data.
• To receive real-time data.
• To steer an instrument.
Example of use
Supported radios Some radios are predefined.
Other radios can be used. Their settings must be defined by creating a new radio configu-
ration. Refer to "20.3 Creating/Editing a Device". These radios must be connected with a
cable.
Step Description
1. Base and rover must both be equipped with radios using the same frequency
range and the same data format.
2. The base radio continuously sends out real-time data until the instrument is
turned off, the configuration is changed or the radio is detached.
3. The rover radio continuously receives real-time data until the instrument is turned
off, the configuration is changed or the radio is detached.
4. Several rovers can receive data from the same base at the same time.
)
Several base radios can transmit real-time data simultaneously using different
radio channels. Changing to a different radio channel on the rover changes the
base from which real-time data is received.
