to configure the rover (see Configuring a Rover on
page 21). From the
Comms tab, you will be able to access
the Bluetooth Devices window and select the rover
receiver from the list of remote receivers detected by
Bluetooth, in the same way as you did for the base.
Switching Between
Base and Rover
During a FAST Survey session, you can quickly change the
receiver you are communicating with (provided the receiver
you want to communicate with is within Bluetooth range).
The
icon located in the upper-right corner of the FAST
Survey window allows you to change receivers. Tap on this
icon and then:
• Select
GPS Base to switch to the base,
• Or select
GPS Rover to switch to the rover.
NOTE: If you examine more carefully this icon, you will see
that it changes aspect (base or rover icon) depending on
which receiver is currently communicating with FAST Survey.
In addition, on the
Equip menu, a small check box appears in
the icon inside either the
GPS Rover or GPS Base button to
indicate which connection is active.
Subsequent Uses
In the next sessions of FAST Survey, the software will prompt
you to re-activate the Bluetooth connection you last
established in the previous session, or simply work without a
connection. If you choose the first option, FAST Survey will
automatically re-establish the connection, provided the
concerned receiver is still on and within Bluetooth range.
