Start GPS Survey - Choose Base Setup
You have three choices for base setup:

Use Current Base
This choice is only available when you have already set a base
in this Survey Pro job. Choose to Use Current Base> to skip
the Base Setup screen and proceed to the next required step

in the process (Rover Setup, Solve Localization, or Data

Collection).

Set New Base
Use this choice when you need to connect to a base receiver,
set it to begin broadcasting RTK corrections over the modem,

and configure the base reference position in Survey Pro. After

base setup, the next step is always Rover Setup.

Use Remote Base
Use this choice when an RTK base is already setup and

broadcasting corrections. This includes using a GPS network
server as your source for base corrections. This choice will

open the Rover Setup page where you will set the rover

receiver, get the base coordinate from the rover data link, and
configure the base reference position in Survey Pro.
After rover setup, if the coordinate system is set and properly
adjusted, you will go directly to Data Collection. If you need to

solve a localization adjustment, your next step will be to

collect control points and then solve the coordinate system
adjustment.

Start GPS Survey - Connect to Receiver
Before you proceed with the Start GPS Survey wizard, you

will be prompted to select a receiver to activate with the

Connect to Receiver screen, which will show a list of either:
RTK base profiles; RTK rover plus Ntrip rover profiles; or

post processing receiver profiles. If you have used your

equipment with this data collector before, then your profile is
remembered and you can proceed by tapping Connect>. You
can also tap Create New Receiver to make a new profile, or

Receiver Settings to modify properties of an existing profile.
