RRRRMMDD_HHMMSSS
Where:
RRRR = last four numbers of
Receiver serial number.
MM = month
DD = Day
HH = Hour
MM = Minutes
SSS = seconds to 1 decimal
place.
Input the length of time over which
the single point should be processed.
The longer the time, the more
accurate the single point. A good
compromise is 20 minutes.
Press OCUPY (F1) to begin the
single point occupation.
The occupation will run for the length
of time specified. After this time, the
point will be automatically recorded
and the Main Survey screen will be
shown. Alternatively, if you wish to cut
the single point processing short,
press STOP (F1).
As soon as the Main Survey screen is
shown, observation data will be
broadcast. Up to this point, only Point
Id and battery status etc. will be
broadcast.
Single Point Processing is generally
used in preference to the navigation
position as a means of defining
reference station coordinates when
either there is no previously
measured point available and the
baseline distance from the reference
to the rover exceeds 10km.
The HERE and SPP methods are
only suitable for use at the start of a
project. On subsequent days,
reference station coordinates should
be the results of the previous days
work!
When the reference point has been
defined and the Main Survey panel is
shown, there is little more to be done.
Data will be transmitted and, if so
configured, will also be recorded.
If working in Advanced mode, you
may use the ADD (F5) key to add
Point Annotations or Meteorological
data.
To shut the Receiver down, press
STOP (F1) and then switch OFF. The
store function is executed
automatically.
