Real-Time Kinematic Survey - Topcon HiPer XT Operator's Manual

3. Set up the Rover at an unknown point and press power. Allow the
Rover to collect static data for two to ten minutes. The REC LED
will be orange.
4. Check the STAT light for satellites tracked.
5. When finished, press the FN key for less than a second to assign
the Rover to kinematic.
TIP
TIP
Remember, if the REC LED blinks green, the current mode
is dynamic, if it blinks orange, the current mode is static.
6. Move the Rover to the next location (survey point), and press the
FN key for less than a second to collect the data in static mode for
two to ten minutes.
7. Repeat steps five and six until all points have been surveyed. The
occupation time for the points depends on the same factors as for
the static survey method.
8. When finished, press the FN key for one to five seconds to stop
logging data. Turn off the Rover if needed.
This method of GPS survey allows the operator to reduce the point
occupation time, thus permitting field crews to survey many more
points compared to the other methods available.

Real-time Kinematic Survey

Real-time kinematic (RTK) is a differential GPS process where
information, such as differential corrections, is transmitted in real-
time from a Base station to one or more Rover stations.
Set up an RTK Base Station
To configure an RTK Base station using PC-CDU, take the following
steps:
1. Set up the Base station receiver's antenna as described in
"Receiver Setup" on page 3-1.
2. Press the power key on the receiver.
