Basic GPS Module
Survey Pro can be sold with either the Basic GPS module or the
standard GPS module. This section outlines the procedures for using
Survey Pro with the Basic GPS module. If using the standard GPS
module, refer to Page 265. In this section, you will learn:
¾ How to configure communication with the receivers.
¾ How to configure an RTK data modem link.
¾ How to use the Start Survey Wizard to start the RTK base
and rover.
¾ How to use the Start Survey Wizard to collect GPS control
and solve a localization adjustment when one is required.
¾ How to move the base with the Traverse Base workflow.
GPS Receiver Connections
Before RTK or post processing data collection can take place, you
need to configure how the data collector will communicate with the
rover receiver and the base receiver or cellular phone.
Communication between these devices can be done with serial cables
(wired) and/or Bluetooth (wireless).
The Basic GPS module is ready to use out of the box if communicating
with the base and rover receiver using a serial cable. If you wish to
use the Bluetooth dongle for either the base or rover, you can use the
Bluetooth Setup Wizard to automatically discover and configure the
software. If you need to change back and forth between serial cables
and Bluetooth, you can use Job > Settings > Connection >
Change Settings… as described in the steps below.
Note: Only data collectors with built-in Bluetooth can communicate
with GPS receivers using Bluetooth.
