Using the Base Location Update Function

Note:

The Update function only works with Base Stations that output INX protocol.

You will only need to use the Update function if your current job meets all of the following criteria:

• You want to begin work before the Base Station has completed a 24 hour survey at the current location.

- and-

• Your initial work does not require accurate latitude and longitude and does not require repeatability (the

ability to Autosteer over the same guidance paths).

- and-

• Subsequent work on the same job does require accurate latitude and longitude and repeatability.

You will not use the Update function if your current job:

• Requires accurate latitude and longitude for all work. (In this case a complete 24 hour survey is required.)

- or-

• Requires repeatability but does not require accurate latitude and longitude for any part of the work. (In this

case neither a 24 hour survey or use of the Update function is required.)

Note:

For more information on “repeatability”, accurate latitude and longitude, 24hr survey, and

Base Station setup information, refer to your Base Station Hardware Manual.

Using the Update Saved Location Procedure

1. Power ON the Base Station at the job location.
2. Power ON the ParaDyme system. An initial (and inaccurate) position is displayed in the Saved
Location field.
3. Begin work on the part of your job that does not require accurate latitude/longitude or repeatability.

4. When you have finished the first part of your job and
the Base Station has completed a 24 hour survey,
navigate to the RTK Radio screen and press the Base
Location item in the scrolling list.
5. Press the Update button. A confirmation prompt
appears.

Note:

When you use the Update function, the longitude and latitude data for all previous work on the

current job will shift. You may want to note the data in the Difference field if you want to manipulate

the position data for the work you have already done - this is not a recommended or supported

procedure.

Note:

You should only press the Update button if the Base Completed 24hr Survey items displays

“Yes”.
