    Modify antenna parameters for receiver. Connect BT Receiver Settings Choose w ork m ode-> Apply In Survey Master, you need only one step to start your receiver: There are some default work modes, three for Base and two for Rover. Choose one mode and long press, you can check the detailed information.
  • Page 15 P rotocol : Select Transparent or TT450s for Base transmission • Auto base • : Once you start the Base, the receiver will automatically get current coordinates and broadcast correction data. Fix position • : Once you start the Base, you need enter or choose known coordinate or get a current coordinate.
  • Page 16 Library choose • : Select a known point from library (Element) : Get a point with GNSS • 5.1.2. External Radio mode This mode uses external radio to transmit the correction data from Base to Rover. You need set Base and Rover with same protocol and frequency.
  • Page 17 5.1.3. Internal GSM mode This mode uses GPRS (internet data) to transmit the correction data from Base to Rover. You need insert a SIM card to Base, set the Base to log on server (with static IP address), and the Rover receive the correction data by Ntrip protocol.
  • Page 19 Tip: geo-FENNEL GmbH provides a free static server address 211.144.120.104:8888, anyone can upload CORS data as long as abide by the agreement. Start your receiver as Rover This chapter shows how to start receiver as rover with internal radio, internal GSM and PDA CORS mode.

  • Page 23 Bubble option will appear when receiver supports for tilt survey, it is available for geo-FENNEL GmbH FGS 1 / 100 Plus GNSS receiver, but FGS 1 / 100/FGS LITE does not support tilt survey. When the pole tilts within 30°, the built-in sensor based tilt measurement system precisely calculates the actual offset according to angle, which can not only meets the requirement of high precision measurement, but also relieves the users from continually checking whether the pole is plumb.
  • Page 24 • Tilt tolerance: the value is relevant with the antenna height, if antenna height is 2m, the tilt should be less than 1m (tilt angle should less than 30°) • • Magnetic field strength: default value is 70, You can check current field Magnetic strength: Device P osition I nfo.
  • Page 25 Auto survey/Area survey For Auto survey, it supports automatic and continuous survey by Time or Distance. For Area survey, it can compute area directly after getting points.
