  • Page 15: Chapter 1. Introduction

    Chapter 1 NTRODUCTION Based on the TRIUMPH Chip, TRIUMPH-1 is a fully integrated package ready for your demanding jobs, offering precise and automatic performance beyond anything that you have experienced so far. An elegant, rugged, light, and hermetically sealed box accommodates all GNSS and Receiver electronics, antennas, and up to 15 hours of rechargeable batteries and its sophisticated power management system.
  • Page 16: Principles Of Operation

    Several other features, including multipath mitigation and common tracking, provide under- canopy and low signal strength reception. The TRIUMPH-1 receiver provides the functionality, accuracy, availability, and integrity needed for fast and easy data collection. 1.1. Principles of Operation Surveying with the right GNSS receiver can provide users accurate and precise positioning, a requirement for any surveying project.

    • Availability – The availability of satellites affects the calculation of valid positions. The more visible satellites available, the more valid and accurate the position. Natural and man-made objects can block, interrupt, and distort signals, lowering the number of available satellites and adversely affecting signal reception. www.javad.com...

    • Check all power sources for drained batteries or incorrectly connected cables. • Check that the most current software is downloaded onto the computer and that the most current firmware is loaded into the receiver. Check the JAVAD GNSS website for the latest updates.
  • Page 138: Powering Problems

    • Charge the batteries overnight. See “Powering the Receiver” on page 36. The receiver may have a defective charger. If, after connecting an external power source, the receiver still does not power up, contact JAVAD GNSS Support for advice. 7.3. Receiver Problems The following are some of the most commonly encountered receiver problems.
  • Page 139 • See “Managing Receiver Options” on page 84 for details on how to check current options. • Order a new OAF with the desired options activated to enable or extend validity of the corresponding receiver options. Contact your dealer or visit the JAVAD GNSS website for details.
  • Page 140 • Check that the radio modem’s antenna is securely and properly connected to the antenna connector. • Check that the radio modem’s antenna is undamaged. If damaged, contact your JAVAD GNSS dealer to replace the antenna. The specified baud rate is incompatible with the baud rates the receiver supports.
