2. Using PC-CDU, click ConfigurationReceiver
MINTER, and configure the Rover with the
following parameters, then click Apply (Figure 3-9 on
page 3-13):
• FN key mode, Occupation mode switch – enable
• Initial data collection dynamic mode,
Kinematic – enable
3. Set up the Rover at a starting point with unknown
coordinates and press the power key. Pause for several
minutes while the receiver compiles an almanac.
4. Check the STAT light for satellites tracked.
5. Press the FN key for one to four seconds to begin
logging data in kinematic mode (the antenna status is
kinematic).
6. Move the Rover receiver along the selected trajectory.
7. Once the Rover receiver reaches the end point of the
trajectory, pause for several minutes.
8. When finished, press the FN key to stop logging data
and turn off the Rover.
Real-time Kinematic Survey
Real-time kinematic (RTK) is a differential GPS process where
information, such as differential corrections, is transmitted in
real-time from a Base station to one or more Rover stations.
Setting up an RTK Base Station
To configure an RTK Base station using PC-CDU, take the
following steps:
1. Set up the Base station receiver’s antenna as described
in “Receiver Setup” on page 3-1.
2. Connect an external modem to port C for a Legacy-E
receiver or port D for the HiPer receiver.
