GR-5 Receiver Setup

and Survey
After receiver survey configuration, set up each receiver, measure its
height, and begin surveying. The MINTER provides quick access for:
logging data, changing receiver modes, and viewing general data
logging and satellite information during a survey.
Receiver Setup
A typical GPS survey system consists of a Base station set up over a
known point and a Rover receiver set up to be a mobile data collector.
After setting up the Base and Rover receivers, the antenna height
must be measured.
Before collecting data, make sure the Base and Rover receivers
contain a current almanac and current ephemeris data (see "Collecting
Almanacs and Ephemerides" on page 2-27).

Step 1: Set up the Receivers

The Base station must be set up, logging data, and transmitting data
before setting up the Rover receiver. Receiver setup for either post-
process or RTK surveys is the same.
Set up the Base station and its components.
See "To set up the Base receiver" on page 4-2 for details.
Set up the Rover receiver.
See "To set up the Rover receiver" on page 4-3 for details.
