2 Z-Surveyor & Z-FX Operation Manual
receiver operates stand-alone and as a base (reference) station or remote (rover)
station providing real-time differential GPS operation for code and real-time
kinematic (RTK) operation for carrier phase. The unit implements the RTCM SC 104
V2.2 standard for differential and RTK operation, including the newly defined
message types 18/19 and 20/21. These features allow the Z-Surveyor and the Z-FX to
achieve centimeter accuracy while being compatible for differential and RTK
operation with any other receiver that implements the RTCM standard.
