ATOM File Naming Conventions
Saving/Restoring Base and Rover Configurations
Your receiver can deliver RTK positions either in Time-Tagged
or Fast RTK mode. The default mode is Fast RTK.
If you wish your receiver to operate in Time-Tagged mode, use
the appropiate serial command to switch into that mode (see
CPD,FST: RTK Output Mode on page 195).
In its standard version, the ProMark 500 features a Fast RTK

this option, use the $PASHS,OPTION command to install it.
