Press: MENU button >> StarFire 3000 button >> RTK
Softkey

Select “Vehicle Repeater” from Operating Mode list box.

In this mode the RTK vehicle radio not only receives
messages but also rebroadcasts them (similar to a RTK
repeater) to other RTK vehicles in close proximity.

NOTE: Vehicle Repeater is identical to the Vehicle

mode with the addition of having the radio
rebroadcast the RTK messages.

The Vehicle Repeater mode allows an RTK vehicle
to function normally as an RTK vehicle while also

transmitting the base correction signal to another RTK
vehicle that does not have line-of-sight to the base station.

The ‘Vehicle Repeater’ needs to be between the base
station and the ‘Vehicle’. The ‘Vehicle Repeater’ must be
able to communicate with the base station. The ‘Vehicle’
must then have either line of sight communication to the
base station or ‘Vehicle Repeater’.

IMPORTANT: There should be only ONE Vehicle

Repeater or Repeater in the same vicinity
with the same Network ID.

Quick Survey Mode

NOTE: Display is not required after base station receiver

has been configured to operate in Quick Survey
Mode and RTK Radio Frequency, Network ID
and Radio Channel have been set.

Connect display to base station.

Press: MENU button >> StarFire 3000 button >> RTK
softkey

Select Quick Survey Base from Operating Mode list box.

NOTE: Quick Survey Base Mode allows base

station to broadcast corrections after receiver
calculates GPS position.

If power is removed from base station (but not moved)
power can be restored and same base station position
will be used for corrections. If previously used Track 0 is
recalled, Shift Track may not be needed.

If power is removed and base station is moved a new
position will be calculated when power is restored. If
previously used Track 0 is recalled, Shift Track will have
to be used to center Track 0 on previous vehicle track.
