5. Advanced RTK: FAST Survey Option

Introduction

The two requirements for running FAST Survey are: 1) You are
using a ProMark3 RTK and 2) FAST Survey has been un-
locked.

Launching FAST Survey

From the ProMark3 RTK workspace, double-tap the FAST Sur-
vey icon to launch FAST Survey. The software takes full control
of the platform and re-assigns new functions to the function
keys. See re-allocation table on page 72.

Creating a New Job

FAST Survey first asks you to open a job (a crd file). Do the
following:
1. Choose Select New/Existing Job. A new screen is now dis-
played.
2. In the Name field, type in the name of the job you wish to
create. For example, type in "tuto1.crd".
3. Then tap OK to create the job. The screen then displays
the Units tab.
4. On the Units tab, set the desired units and parameters for
the job.
5. Tap on the GPS tab.
On the GPS tab, choose the coordinate system to be used
in the job as well as the geoid model. A large number of
coordinate systems are stored in FAST Survey. To select
one of them, click on the Edit Projection List button and
then Add Predefined. Some coordinate systems require that
a datum grid (or projection grid) be uploaded before you
are allowed to use them. Geoids can be uploaded using
GNSS Solutions.
6. After selecting all the desired parameters, click OK
(located on top of the screen).
