The Overall accuracy can be specified by choosing a value from the drop-down list or typing
one in. Alternatively, the accuracy of each measurement can be specified separately by
clicking the check box to unlock the greyed out drop-down boxes.

The default accuracy is 10 cm, which is sufficient for the RT1003 to refine itself to
specification during the warm-up period. Care should be taken if specifying a greater
accuracy. Do not overstate the accuracy as doing so may cause the RT1003 to look in the
wrong place, increasing the time taken to find the correct solution.

Secondary antenna

Figure 22.

NAVconfig Secondary Antenna page

The Secondary Antenna page, shown in Figure 22, is used to define the position of the GNSS
antenna connected to the secondary receiver, relative to the primary one. The secondary
antenna should be placed in accordance with the information given in the antenna installation
section on page 34.
