The INIT (F6) key shows in the main
survey screen and is available in
Advanced Mode.
When a Real-Time Rover
Configuration Set is chosen, the
Receiver will automatically start the
initialization process as On-the-Fly as
soon as the conditions are right.
INIT (F6) can be used to select the
initialization method and also to force
a new initialization. Ensure that the
correct Antenna height has been
entered before starting the
initialization.
Static - Initializes using Static. The
Antenna should be mounted either on
the pole with a quickstand or on a
tripod. This method may be used if for
some reason it is proving difficult to
initialize on the fly and no known point
is available.
Known Point - Initializes on a known
point. If you have a point, the
coordinates of which are already
accurately known in position and
height, you may use it to initialize.
This method is used when it is
proving difficult to initialize on the fly.
On-The-Fly - Initializes as you are
moving with the Antenna. This is the
most common and useful method and
is used automatically by default. It
may be used again here after a
successful initialization on the fly as a
quality check.
Select the method you wish to use
and press CONT (F1).
When Static and On-the-Fly have
been chosen, the initialization
procedure will begin immediately.
When Known Point has been
chosen you will be prompted to select
the point you wish to use to initialize
on. This point must be contained in
the Job you are working in.
