Rtk Stake Out - Tripod Data Systems SURVEY PRO User Manual

RTK Stake Out

Stake out with GPS is very similar to stake out with conventional
instruments. See the User's Manual for details on the different
staking procedures. Below is a description of the two special features
of stakeout with GPS.
>Roving / >Occupying
o
1. When you first start any GPS staking screen, measurements are
started in the GPS receiver in dynamic (moving) mode. This is
necessary as you navigate to the design point, and is indicated on
the screen with the toggle button in the >Roving position.
2. When you arrive at the design point, if you want to take a more
precise measurement, you need to switch to >Occupying mode.
This will switch the receiver from motion to static (depending on
your Receiver Dynamics setting).
Note: When Store GPS Raw Data on the Job | Settings | Measure
Mode screen is set to + Rx. Raw (and / or +OBN for Ashtech)
switching from ROVING to OCCUPYING will start a session in the
receiver, so you will be prompted for a point name and description.
The receiver session will be completed and the measurement stored
when you tap Done. The occupation is not stored in the Survey Pro
.RAW file if you toggle back to ROVING.
5 Hz Mode
o
1. When you first open any GPS staking screen, the default is to
start measurements in Five Hz mode. This will configure the
receiver to calculate positions five times a second and the display
will update in near real time. You can change this setting on the
Job | Settings | Stakeout card.
2. The receiver is switched back to One Hz mode when you begin a
site occupation. Also, you can turn off Five Hz mode by tapping
the 5Hz check box on any stake out dialog.
