3.3 Post-processing routine
The post-processing collection routine is very simple. Press # once to activate the
logging data routine and then press # again to stop logging.
The factory default values are 10° elevation mask, 5 second interval logs, and
automatic station naming. These values will be used when starting a static survey with
the faceplate.
Static and post-process kinematic surveys can be initiated with Survey Pro
™
software
running on a data collector. The Survey Pro software allows for full control of all the
survey parameters. to start a post-process survey with the faceplate (receiver buttons
and display), do the following:
1. Press ! or @ to scroll up or down in the main menu until
Log PP appears in
the LED display.
2. Press #.
A “busy” indicator spins on the right side of the display.
Done appears once the
file is open and logging has been started. The display then returns to the main
display—an R appears on the right position. This indicates that a post-
processing file is being recorded.
3. When enough data has been logged, scroll to the End PP menu and press #. The
post-processing logging session ends and the file is closed.
To record additional post-processing sessions, repeat these steps. For each post
processing session, a new sequentially-numbered file (
NNNNDDD#.T02) is written to
the receiver’s internal memory, where:
• NNNN is the last four digits of the receiver serial number
• DDD is the day of the year (where 1 January is 001)
• # is the sequential file for that day.
Use the Survey Pro software on your data collector to retrieve post-processing files or
to connect the receiver to a computer running the Spectra Precision Survey Office
software or Spectra Precision Data Transfer software to download the files. The Survey
Office software provides a complete set of tools for post processing, network
adjustments, and data analysis.
All post-processing sessions initiated using the faceplate use a 10° elevation mask, 5
second logging interval, and an automatically-generated station name,
