8 RTK Mapping
8.4.5 Using RTK and Non-RTK Rovers with the Same Base
Station
You may have several field crews collecting data at the same time.
Even if not all of them are using RTK receivers, they can all use the
same base station. To do this you need to configure the base station to
transmit RTCM 2.1 messages instead of CMR messages. Note that
you must have the RTCM option installed on your base receiver in
order to do this.
To allow the base station to service both RTK and non-RTK rovers,
open the RTK protocol form (press theRsoftkey in the Real-time
output options form) and set the RTK record type fieldto‘RTCM2.1’.
Note – If you are using one or more Series 4000 receivers as rovers,
the RTK record type setting of the rovers must match the base setting.
Follow the above instructions for each rover using a 4000 receiver.
8.5 Back in the Office
For information on how to transfer your data from the datalogger to
your office PC, see Transferring Data from the Datalogger, page 142.
Once you have transferred your data, you can view, query, and export
your data using the GPS Pathfinder Office software. This section
explains how to identify RTK positions, display precision estimates,
and export your RTK data.
