RTK GPS Expansion Pack
RTK GPS Expansion Pack Overview
The RTK GPS Expansion Pack for the Carlson Surveyor+
and the Juniper Systems TK6000 handheld incorporates
a high accuracy NovAtel RTK GPS receiver and an
EDGE class wireless modem (GSM). This combination
enables precision measurements to be made with a
small, lightweight handheld device. The NovAtel RTK
GPS receiver incorporates state-of-the-art positioning
technology using GPS and GLONASS dual frequency
receivers, which feature NovAtel’s AdVance RTK and
ALIGN technologies.
There is a North American model (U.S. and Canada) and
an International model (European CE Marking).
Batteries
It is strongly recommended that two battery packs be
used in the handheld. This should provide approximately
six hours of continuous operation.
GPS Receiver Operation
Support for the precision GPS receiver in the RTK GPS
expansion pack is provided by the application software
supplier. Please consult the document provided by your
application software provider for the proper operation of
the GPS receiver with your specific application software.
