„ Configure Base Station And Rover
This user guide provides information in two ways to configure the base station and rover:
9 Reference Chapters:
•
Chapter 3 : A reference of all the options on the Base Configuration window. The window
contains most (but not all) of the controls that enable the receiver to operate as a base
station.
•
Chapter 4 : A reference of all the options on the Rover / Navigation & Tracking Setup
window. The window contains most (but not all) of the controls that enable the receiver
to operate as a rover.
9 Step-by-Step RTK Configuration:
•
Chapter 5 : Step-by-step procedures to set up RTK communications between the base
station and the rover via internal or external radios, plus steps to verify the successful
communication of corrections. RTK Configuration involves the use of multiple windows:
Base Configuration, Rover / Navigation & Tracking Setup, Unit Port Configuration, etc.
This chapter highlights NCT RTK configuration, but also includes setup information for
RTCM, CMR and CMR+ corrections. Basic hardware setup is described.
„ Setup Message Output Lists
StarUtil provides the user with two windows to schedule and configure messages for output
according to application requirements:
9 NCT Binary Messages Window (see Figure 86)
