Setting up an RTK Rover

Use the following steps to set up an RTK Rover station. You should 
already have programmed the modem.

1. Set up the Rover station receiver's antenna as described in “Maxor 

Receiver Setup” on page 3-2.

2. Connect your receiver and computer. See “Connecting the Maxor 

and a Computer” on page 2-9 for this procedure.

3. Click 

Configuration->Receiver

.

4. Select the 

Positioning

 tab and set the Position Masks, Elevation 

mask (degrees) parameter to 15 (Figure 3-10 on page 3-15).

5. Select the 

Rover

 tab and set the desired Positioning Mode 

(Figure 3-13).

Figure 3-13. Rover Tab Configuration

Adjust the following RTK Parameters settings:

• Under RTK mode in the RTK Parameters section, choose either 

Extrapolation for RTK (kinematic) or Delay for RTK (static).

–Extrapolation is for low-latency, high frequency output (>= 5 Hz) 
RTK applications. The rover will extrapolate the base station's 
carrier phase measurement corrections when computing the rover's 
current RTK position.

–Delay is for 1 Hz high precision RTK applications. The Rover 
RTK engine will compute either a delayed RTK position (for the
