Radio Data Link Fails to Provide Base Corrections to Rover

The Data Link icon is displayed on the rover’s General Status
screen when base corrections are received and a float or fixed
solution is available. Next to it is the age of corrections, a
value which should not normally exceed a few seconds when
the data link operates smoothly.

After examining the General Status screen, you determine
that the rover is not receiving data. Follow the outline below
to troubleshoot this problem.

Step 1. Is the

Receiver Fitted

with the

Appropriate Radio

Module?

The radio module used should be compatible with the radio
transmitter used at the base. Several sub-bands and channel
bandwidths are available for the radio (see Optional
Accessories on page

6).

1. If you are using the right module, go to step 2.

2. If you are not using the right module, turn off the receiver

and replace the module with the right one. You then need
to restore the default settings in the receiver (by pressing
the

Reset Factory Defaults button in FAST Survey’s

Equip>GPS Utilities or pressing the Log+ Scroll+ Power
buttons simultaneously on the front panel) so the receiver
can recognize and use the new module. If using the right
module does resolve the problem, go to step 2.

NOTE: There is no particular action required to power up
the radio module other than to power up the receiver. This
automatically applies power to the radio module.
