2. Tap Setup HR to select your antenna type

and measure the slant or vertical height of
the antenna.

3. Tap SET Rover to setup the receiver as an

RTK rover. The rover will then wait to
receive the base reference position over the

data modem link. If you have already

configured the base with this data collector,
then the base reference position from

Survey Pro will be checked against the
position received at the rover. If you have

not yet configured the base reference position in Survey Pro, it

will be configured with the position received at the rover.

Note: If you have post processing data collection turned on, the

receiver will now open a file (with the next available default name),

start recording GPS raw data, and enter the antenna information for
this stop and go session.

Rover Setup – Set Base Reference Position

When you are using a remote base station, and the base reference
position is not yet known to Survey Pro, you must complete the Base

Setup wizard for the remote base position in order to store the base
position in Survey Pro and update the raw data.
Similarly, when you set the rover and the remote base position

received at the rover is different than the one set in Survey Pro, or
when you are doing RTK surveying and the rover detects that the

base position has changed, you will be prompted to complete the Base

Setup wizard for the remote base position.

1. Choose a name for the remote base point. If the base reference

position received at the rover matches a single point in the job

file, then the prompt to choose a point name is skipped, and
you go to the next step. If the base position does not match

any points in the job file, you are prompted to choose a name
