Initialization
Post-Processed
Projects
In a rover, the initialization step is recommended at the
beginning of the data collection phase to make sure GNSS
Solutions will have enough data to post-process the field data
and deliver the expected level of accuracy. Two initialization
methods are possible in this case:
ProMark Field will then monitor the number of satellites
received to make sure the initialization is preserved
throughout data logging.
If at one point, the receiver loses too many satellites, a
message will show up (“
Loss of lock. Please initialize”)
prompting you to start a new initialization.
Initialization
Method
What You Are Supposed To Do
From Bar
It is assumed that you are using your own base. Start your proj-
ect with the rover antenna placed at the end of the initializer bar
(installed at the base). Keep it there immobile for 60 seconds
(there is a progress bar on the screen asking you to wait), then
move the antenna to the top of the rover pole, taking care not to
obstruct the antenna. You can then start your project.
From Known
Point
Place the rover antenna on a point the coordinates of which are
known to the receiver. Keep the antenna immobile for 5 sec-
onds on this point (there is a progress bar on the screen asking
you to wait), then start your project.
