1.1 About the Receiver
The P3DT GNSS reference receiver (“the receiver”) is a multiple-constellation and
multiple-frequency GNSS receiver.
You can use the front panel of the receiver or an office computer to configure the
receiver, download data or publish it on your company intranet or the Internet. The
receiver makes it easy for you to set up a powerful, flexible, and reliable reference
station for continuous operation.
The receiver can serve as common geodetic reference receiver. It can be main
component in a Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS), streaming data to
CHC GNSS Infrastructure software. It can also work well as a campaign receiver prior
to permanent deployment. The receiver makes an excellent portable RTK base
station with its internal battery. It also has specialized capabilities that make it an
excellent reference receiver for scientific applications.
