Site ID: Accept the default base Site ID (3) or enter an ID to isolate the base and rover
radios, if desired. The rover radio must be set to the identical ID. This avoids cross talk
between the rover radio and any other base radio in the area that may be set to the same
frequency. For multiple base stations, use a different site ID for each one. The valid range
for a Base site ID is 1 to 1023. The valid range for a Rover site ID is 0 to 1023. If the rover
Site ID is 0 (the default), the rover accepts RTK corrections from any base station (see
Figure 23).

‡

Models RT-3010 & RT-3020 only (with internal radio): StarUtil provides a
Network ID option (see Figure 70).

Antenna Setup Button: Click this button to set the appropriate bias adjustment values for the
antenna model in use (optional). The Vertical Antenna Bias window opens (see Figure 13):

Phase Center Adjustment (H1): The offset in millimeters from the physical center of the

antenna (the element) to the Mechanical Reference Plane (MRP). The MRP is at the
bottom of the BSW antenna mount. The range limits are -128 to 127mm.

Radius of Antenna Body (R): The measurement in millimeters from the physical center of

the antenna to the edge of the antenna. For a pole, enter 0. For a tripod, the range limits
are -32768 to 32767mm.

Slant Range of Antenna Body: For a pole, the vertical measurement in millimeters from

the Mechanical Reference Plane (MRP) to the control point. For a tripod, the
measurement in millimeters from the edge of the antenna to the control point. The range
limits are -32768 to 32767mm.
