base station and to set the base reference position in Survey Pro.

Pick the Base Point

2.

Tap

6HWXS +5 to select your antenna type and measure the slant

or vertical height of the antenna.

Note: If this receiver has already set an antenna with Survey Pro,
the measurement and settings will be recalled from the registry, so
you will not have to do this step again.

3.

Enter a name for the

Base Point

. You can select an existing point

from the job or you can enter a new point name for the job. If you
select:

An existing point with geodetic coordinates, we send these
reference coordinates to the GPS receiver and configure the
base coordinate in Survey Pro.

An existing point with plane only (N,E,Elev) coordinates, we
calculate geodetic coordinates from the current projection,
then send this reference position to the GPS receiver and
configure the base coordinate in Survey Pro.
