    2. Brief introduction This chapter is mainly used to introduce the key features and the appearance of G7H+. As the latest generation of GNSS receiver, G7H+ brings you a better user experience. G7H+ is a high accuracy GNSS receiver which has LINUX platform. The rugged housing which has IP67 protection level and strong battery life of G7H+ provide stable and reliable performance in a variety of scenarios.
  • Page 8 (1) Compact and lightweight design. The dimensions of G7H+ is radius 130mm × height 102mm, but its weight is approximately 1050g (without battery). The compact and lightweight design allow users to carry out easily. (2) Advanced datalink The radio module and the communication protocol are compatible with the main RTK products in the market and able to work together with other brand RTK products so as to optimize your asset allocation.

    3. Basic operations of G7H+ In this section, we highlight the basic operations of G7H+. It includes the installation of base and rover, the operation of keys, changing work mode and datalink, self-test. All of these basic operations are simple and easy. But they are very important. 3.1.Power on When the Receiver is in the OFF status (no light), press the power key until you listen beep and LED light up, and then the receiver will enter the initialization status.

    self-checking is completed. If the module self-check fails, voice broadcast “xx self-check error”, the led will continue blink and the buzzer beeps until you restart the receiver. Self-checking procedure lasts about 1 minute. Please contact your dealer if the self-checking is failed. If each module led are ON (not blinking) and voice broadcast the self-checking success (for example “self-check GPS OK”), it means the modules could work normally.

    4.3.RTK Dynamic survey (Network) Erection of Base and Rover Because the RTK- network mode uses the network to transmit differential data, and the radio mode is only different in transmission mode, the base and rover are set up in a similar way. The data link selects the network mode, sets the IP, port, and access point, and selects differential format, satellite system.
