Trimble R6 GPS and R8 GNSS Receiver Operation
15.1Configuring the receiver in real time
GPS Configurator and Trimble Survey Controller software support real-time
configuration of the receiver.
When you configure the receiver in real time, you use one of these software
applications to specify which settings you want to change. When you apply the
changes, the receiver settings change immediately.
Any changes that you apply to the receiver are reflected in the current application file,
which is always present in the receiver. The current application file always records the
most recent configuration, so if you apply further changes (either in real time or using
an application file) the current file is updated and there is no record of the changes that
you applied originally.
For more information on configuring the receiver in real time, see Chapter 16, Software
Utilities.
15.2Configuring 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.
For more information on applying application files, see Chapter 16, Software Utilities.
15.3Application files
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:
• File Storage
• General Controls
• Serial Port Baud/Format
• Reference Position
• Logging Rate
• SV Enable/Disable
• Output Message
• Antenna
• Device Control
• Static/Kinematic
• Input Message
