  • Page 9: Chapter Ii Preparing Work

    This net is similar with one of the classical surveying-- lead net. Its structure is a little worse than triangle net. The amount of KRONOS100 lines in closed loop decides the self--checking ability and consistency. General speaking, the amount of KRONOS100 lines...
  • Page 10: Working Range

    The advantage of circle net is the small workload, good self-checking and consistency. But the main disadvantage is that the accuracy of indirect-observed border is lower than that of direct-observed border, and the KRONOS100 line accuracy of neighbor points distributes unevenly. In field surveying, we usually use annexed traverse as special example according to practical situation and the net usage.

    If you want to clear the connection, you can press and hold S key. 3.1 main interface 3.1.1 Initialize interface Power on KRONOS100 receiver, you will see the initialization interface as following: Vector Figure 3-1 KRONOS100 Initialization interface 1.
  • Page 14 Fig 3-2 main interface of file system The main interface includes three parts. a. Satellite distributing graph You can see how many satellites can be observed from this graph. b. System prompt area LSTIME: it shows local time. RETIME: it shows that receiver logged time. FREEMEM: it shows you the free memory of the receiver.
  • Page 15 Press F3, to select a file in the current page. Press F4, to return main interface. 2. Press F2 to enter “set” interface, see fig 3-4. Fig 3-4 second interface of “set” Press F1 to set the collecting interval, the default value is 10 second. You can press F1 to change the interval.
  • Page 16 Fig 3-6 second interfaces of “status” Press F2, it will show ID of satellites and SN, see fig 3-7. Press F3 in the AUTO mode, it will show point name. In the MAN mode, it will show collection,see fig 3-8. You can input the information of point in the fig 3-8, such as name of point, number of time period of collection and antenna height.

    PDOP meets the requirement. You can see the increasing time in the right side, which means KRONOS100 mainframe is logging the GPS data. You can name the logging data or the software will set the default name as “****”. The file construction is set according to collecting...
  • Page 19 Fig 3-11 “survey” interface b. Press F3 to enter point name input interface, you can name the logging data, input period number and antenna height here, see as: Fig 3-12 name interface Note: The different between AUTO and MAN: In AUTO mode, the receiver names the data when logging it, but in MAN mode, you should input the point name and press the key to start log date.
