Receiver Description

successively “FIXED” and “H-FIX” (at regular intervals of
1 second).

• An additional screen, called the Heading screen, is

inserted between the General Status screen and the
Memory screens. It provides the status and results of the
heading process.

In the example below, the heading process is fully
operational (“FIXED” status), the receiver returns the
heading measurement, as well as the roll measurement
(baseline oriented perpendicular to the vehicle
centerline). There is no pitch value returned because this
angle is not measured in this case.

The table below gives the correspondence between the
heading status displayed on the General Status screen
and the one shown on the Heading screen and explains
the meaning of each status.

Charging Batteries Before Use

Make sure the battery is fully charged for each ProFlex 800
you will be using in the field.

For a ProFlex 800 CORS, inserting a fully charged battery into
the receiver will guarantee that the station can keep operating
for several hours after a power shutdown, giving you the time
to take the necessary maintenance steps.
