Thereceiveralsosupportsthird‐partytransparentradiosandthird‐partycellularmodems.
Touseanexternalradiowiththereceiver,youneedanexternalpowersourcefortheradio—
exceptfortheSNB900radio,whichcontainsaninternalbattery.Toconfiguretheradiomodem
separately,use
theexternalradio’sconfigurationprogram,orthedisplayandkeypad.
ConfiguringtheReceiver
Configuringthereceiver
Youcanconfigurethereceiverinanumberofways.Thesetopicsdescribethedifferent
configurationmethods,andexplainswhenandwhyeachmethodisused.
TrimbleAccesssoftwareislikelytobeyourmaintooltosetupandoperatethereceiveronadaily
basis.Allrequiredfieldconfigurations
arehandledthroughtheTrimbleAccesssoftwarerunningon
aTrimbleTablet,TSC3,orTrimbleCUcontroller.Formoreinformation,refertotheTrimbleAccess

Configuringthereceivertousespecificsettingswhenitisturnedon
Thepowerupapplicationfile(Power_up.cfg)isusedtosetthereceivertoaspecificconfiguration
anytimetheunitisturnedon.
Inthisfile,youcanselecttoresetthereceivertodefaultsbeforethepowerupsettingsareapplied.
Thisensuresthatwhen yourestartthereceiver,it
alwaysresetstofactorydefaultsbeforeapplying
thepowerupapplicationfile.
Alternatively,youcanspecifythatthepowerupsettingsareappliedimmediatelyafterthecurrent
applicationfile’ssettingshavebeenapplied.Restartingthereceiverresultsinaconfigurationthat
usesyourdefaultsettingsfortheoptionsyoudefine
inthepowerupfile,butthecurrentsettings
forallotheroptions.
Bydefault,thereisnopower_upapplicationfileonthereceiver.Touseapowerupapplicationfile,
youmustcreateandsaveapower_upapplicationfileintheGPSConfiguratorsoftware.Ifyousave
thisfileto
disk,thefileiscalledpower_up.cfg.Theextension.cfgisused,byconvention,toidentify
applicationfilesontheofficecomputer.Whenyoutransferthisfiletothereceiver,thefileissaved
onthereceiveraspower_up,andbecomesthenewpowerupfile.
Configuringthereceiverusingapplicationfiles
Anapplicationfilecontainsinformationforconfiguringareceiver.Toconfigureareceiverusingan
applicationfile,youneedtocreatetheapplicationfile,transferittothereceiverandthenapplythe
file’ssettings.TheGPSConfiguratorsoftwaredoesthisautomaticallywhenyouworkwith
configurationfiles.
Overview
Anapplication
fileisorganizedintorecords.Eachrecordstoresconfigurationinformationfora
particularareaofreceiveroperation.Applicationfilescanincludethefollowingrecords:
