where you enter the site ID and description. You can remain
connected to this receiver to monitor the entire session, or you

can leave it to log the data file unattended. If you start a stop

and go file, the Static Receiver Session screen is opened where
you control the receiver when you stop over a data point.

Note: The Post Processing screen will first check if the

connected receiver is the RTK base or rover. If you are
connected to the RTK base or rover receiver, your only option

here is to stop recording. To start recording with the base or

rover receiver, use RTK setup described in the previous
section.

If the connected receiver is already recording data, you can
tap Stop Recording to end logging and close the file.

Post Processing Data Collection

After recording is started, the Static Receiver Session screen
is opened. You can also access this screen by going to the

Survey | Data Collection menu and choose to connect to a

post processing receiver. Use the following controls for post
processing data collection:

file

only

will only mark the event in the post

processing logging file. In this mode, the Site ID does
not need to be a unique point name, and nothing is

stored in the Survey Pro job file. A note record is
made for this occupation in the Survey Pro raw file.

NOTE: By default, post processing points are stored in the

Survey Pro job file are put on a special layer to distinguish
them from other data collected points. Points stored in

Survey Pro job file will have a plane coordinate of (0,0,0) and
a geodetic coordinate from the receiver’s autonomous position.
