Setting the Channel

You can set the channel to any value between 1 and 100.

Each GPS 2500B base station and GPS 2500 rover in a network must be configured to operate on the
same channel. The following steps show how to use Remote Control software to set the channel. Follow
the same steps if using the actual menu on the GPS 2500B to set its channel.
