Using an External Radio with a ProMark 220

Connect the radio to the receiver through a POGO cable (this
accessory is available from Spectra Precision):

• For most models of supported radios, the POGO cable that

should be used is the one with bare wires on radio side
(Unterminated POGO cable P/N 111659), which means
you have to add a connector that is suitable for your radio
model. The POGO cable pinout is provided in the left-
hand column. For a base, an external DC source is
recommended to power the radio (used as a transmitter).
Some radio models can be configured directly from within
FAST Survey.

• If the ProMark 220 is used as a rover and you purchased

a Satel Easy radio from Spectra Precision, then the POGO
cable is provided with the suitable connector (it’s part of
the radio kit P/N 802144). You just need to connect this
cable between the GNSS receiver and the Satel radio. The
Satel radio should be configured separately (this cannot
be done from within FAST Survey).

• If the ProMark 220 is used as a base with a Satel Easy

radio, Spectra Precision recommends the use of the Y-
shaped POGO cable kit P/N 90247 allowing you to
connect the radio directly to the GNSS receiver and to
power both the GNSS receiver (through pin +DC IN) and
the radio from a single, external DC source (Reminder:
This setup does NOT allow the receiver’s internal battery
to be charged). The Satel radio should be configured
separately (this cannot be done from within FAST Survey).
