System Setup; Setting Up The Base Receiver - Topcon HiPer VR Operator's Manual

System Setup

The base receiver transmits RTK corrections to the rover receiver using either LongLink™ wireless
technology, or UHF or FM modem. The internal cell module receives correction data from reference
GNSS networks.
This chapter describes the field setup for base or RTK rover usage.

Setting Up the Base Receiver

1. Install a heavy-duty tripod (P/N 22-050501-01) over a known point (Figure 6-1).
You do not need a universal tribrach and tribrach adapter when working on this
tripod.
2. Position the base receiver over a point with a known coordinate in the current coordinate system.
3. Attach the antenna to the UHF or FH modem antenna connector.
4. Level the tripod and tighten the screws.
5. If needed, attach any other accessories, such as a back-up power supply.
6. Measure the height of the receiver from the ground using the tape measure. See "Measuring
Antenna Height".
