Setup and Survey

using the radius of the antenna, then the offset can be
added. The offsets are not the same number because of the
difference in location between the slant measuring point
and the vertical measuring point.
2. Record the antenna height, point name, and start time in the
field notes.
3. Press the power key and release it to turn the receiver on.
The STAT (status) light (LED) will blink red at first.
4. Once the receiver has locked on to one or more satellites,
the STAT light will blink green for GPS satellites, orange
for GLONASS satellites, and a short red blink indicating it
has not solved a position. Four or more satellites provide
optimal positioning.
5. Once the short red blink is gone, the receiver has a position
and surveying can begin. You should wait for green and
orange lights before beginning data collection. This ensures
that the receiver has the correct date and time, and is locked
on to enough satellites to ensure good quality data.
The process of locking on to satellites normally takes less
than one minute. In a new area, under heavy tree canopy, or
after resetting the receiver, it may take several minutes.
Step 3: Collect Data
1. To begin collecting data, press and hold the FN (function)
key for more than one second and less than five seconds.
2. Release the FN key when the REC (recording) LED light
turns green. This indicates that a file has opened and data
collection has started. The REC LED blinks each time data
is saved to the internal memory.
