settings are in the receiver. To change the receiver

communication settings, select the new parameters and tap

Bluetooth Note: You can use Bluetooth to connect to a
Bluetooth enabled receiver. In some cases, you can also use

Bluetooth to connect to a cellular phone to use as a data

modem. How to use Bluetooth to connect to the receiver
and/or the phone will depend on the data collector platform

you are using. Consult the users and reference manual for
more detailed information on Bluetooth setup and operation
within Survey Pro.

Once you are sure you are talking with the receiver, tap

Receiver Mode and Correction Formats
Survey Pro can control a GPS receiver in one of four modes:

¾

RTK Base

¾

RTK Rover

¾

Ntrip Rover

¾

Post Processing

If you are using an RTK base or RTK rover, you must specify

the RTK Correction Format to broadcast from the base to the
rover over the modem. Choices here will depend on your

receiver model. You must choose the same format for the
base and rover. If you are using an RTK rover, you can set

any special rover handling options. If you are using an Ntrip

rover, the correction format and special handling is chosen
when you connect to the server. If you are using a post

processing receiver, no correction format setting is required.
This card is also used to set the elevation cutoff for tracking

satellites.
