RTK Surveying Preliminary Steps
RTK Rover Setup
Prerequisites
• Use a range pole fitted with a 5/8” male adaptor at the
upper end (not provided).
• If a radio link is used with the base, your rover should
normally have been fitted with the radio module that
matches the reception band covered by the radio
transmitter used at the base.
• If a GPRS connection is used, your rover should normally
have been fitted with the SIM card that will allow it to
perform a network connection.
To connect the SIM card, first use a flat screwdriver to
loosen the two quarter-turn screws securing the radio
module. Remove the module. This gives access to an
electronic card on which you can insert the SIM card as
shown on the picture.
Radio Link
Mount the different items as shown on the picture, including
the ProMark 800 [1], the radio antenna [2], the range pole
[3] and the field terminal with its mounting bracket [4].
Caution! Use of a non-metal range pole is recommended to
maintain the performance level of the radio antenna.
GSM/GPRS
Connection
As a standard feature, the ProMark 800 incorporates a built-
in GSM modem, which means you only have to connect the
GSM antenna if you have paid for activation of the hardware.
Mount the different items as shown on the picture, including
the ProMark 800 [1], the GSM antenna [2], the range pole
[3] and the field terminal with its mounting bracket [4].
Caution! Use of a non-metal range pole is recommended to
maintain the performance level of the GSM antenna.
