FieldBee RTK base station+FieldBee GNSS receiver With the FieldBee RTK-GPS system you will be able to reach an exceptional accuracy of 0-4 cm. No need to pay extra charges for RTK correction signal, you will receive your own base station that provides correction. You can connect an unlimited number of antennas to the FieldBee RTK base station. - Page 14 !Factory settings for FieldBee has active Radio mode. After turning on antennas you should receive accuracy >1 meter for the GPS (Normal) or DGPS fix and 15-20 satellites. After few minutes -fix type will change to Float RTK and then RTK.
