post processing software.

Post Processing (Logging Static Data) for Ashtech in FAST Survey

There are two methods to log static data with an Ashtech receiver. The first is from the Log Static Data button under

the SURVEY tab of the main menu. The second is using Configure Rover and Configure Base, as described below.

Logging Static Data from the Survey Menu

Go to the SURVEY tab, and select the Log Static Data button. The result is a dialog with six buttons, or an error

message stating that the data collector could not connect to the receiver. (If you receive the error message, check

connections on the data card.) From here, one can start a file, leave the file recording (exit), manage files, pause

recording (stop processing), resume recording (start processing), or start tagging sites. To manage files, see below. If a

file is open, but paused, you can choose to resume it here.
