Turn Off GNSS
The procedure is then as follows:
• Back at the office, place the receiver on the docking
station.
• Connect the docking station to your computer using the
USB cable provided.
• Using Microsoft ActiveSync, open one of these folders:
– "Storage Disk" if "Internal Memory" was selected for
data recording.
– "Storage Card" if "Storage Card" was selected for data
recording.
This folder contains a folder named "GNSS Raw Data" in
which you will find a file of this type:
ATL_yymmdd_hhmmss.log
(e.g. "ATL_100715_162514.log" for a file logged on July 15, 2010
at UTC time 4:25:14 pm)
• Send an email to Ashtech Technical Support with this file
attached to the email. The file uses a proprietary format
and so can only be parsed by Ashtech.
Note: If you are using Windows Mobile' E-mail, you can send the file
directly from your receiver.
In addition to providing the software version of the GNSS
Toolbox, this function also reports the following:
• GNSS firmware version
• System firmware version
• Receiver serial number
In some cases of use, the GNSS reception function of your
platform may not be required. Turning it off in those cases
will save the battery.
• Open the GNSS Toolbox and tap on Turn off GNSS. The
message "Power off GNSS receiver?" is displayed asking
you to confirm or cancel your power-off request.
• Tap Yes to confirm. This will instantly turn off the GNSS
section of the receiver and take you back to the Today
screen.
If you turn off the receiver while GNSS is still off, then
GNSS will stay off next time you turn on the receiver.
Conversely, if you launch GNSS Toolbox after turning off
GNSS, this will cause GNSS to be turned back on
automatically.
