Remote Control is a free Hemisphere GPS software application you can use to set up and configure
an 2500/2500B. To obtain Remote Control visit www.
AgLeader.com and navigate to the support
section.
Starting Remote Control
Before starting Remote Control you must connect the 2500/2500B to your PC via serial cable.
Connect one end of a serial cable to the serial port of the 2500/2500B and connect the other end of
the cable to your PC.
1. Start Remote Control.
2. Click the Connect button to display a list of all available serial
ports on your PC.
3. Click the appropriate port. Remote Control searches for and
finds the receiver and automatically requests information from
the receiver.
Remote Control includes three tabs:
• Remote LCD - Displays the same information (menu, LEDs, and buttons) as on the 2500B display.
For detailed information on the menu, LEDs, and buttons see “Display Panel” on page 6. If you
are using an 2500, you can still use the Remote LCD tab via the serial port connection.
• Radio - Allows you to set radio parameters.
• Base Station - Allows you to set up multiple base station locations and manually set the reference
station locations stored in the receiver. See “Base Station Tab” on page 35 for more information.
Radio Tab
The Radio tab is only enabled if your 2500/2500B includes an internal radio.
Microhard Radio Installed
The Radio tab for Microhard radios allows you to edit specific radio
parameters related to the configuration of the device.
The Radio tab looks similar to one of the following, depending on
your installed radio:
900 MHz radio installed
The radio in the unit is self-configuring based on the application being used. The radio is automatically
set up as a:
• Rover (receiving) radio for units running the RTK application
• Base (transmitting) radio for units running the SBASRTKB application
Note: Press the Save button to keep any changes you make on the Radio tab.
