Receiver Setup
and
Configuration
RPR 110/115/ Phoenix 200
The RPR 110/115 does not have a front panel that can be used to configure
the receiver. To verify proper setup, view the ‘Delta Time’ under the Status
Menu. The ‘Delta Time’ and ‘Actual’ should be the same.
RPR 210/310
The RPR 210/310 can be checked in the same way as the RPR 110/115, or
by entering the ‘output config’ menu. Check the baud rate and that the
GGA and VTG messages are turned on at.1 seconds (10 Hz). Refer to the
RPR 210/310 manual for more information.
Phoenix 300
Starting the Receiver
After start-up of the Phoenix 300, an ‘R’ must be present in the upper left
hand corner of the receiver screen before Decimeter swathing. On initial
start-up, it may take up to 45 minutes for the receiver to ‘lock’ onto the
GPS signal. When a signal is found and locked in, the ‘R’ will be present.
Note:
• Swathing may begin with a ‘D’ or ‘C’, showing instead of
an ‘R’, but pass-to-pass accuracy will be reduced.
• By connecting the Phoenix 300 directly to a battery with
it’s own switch and fuse, you can avoid shutting off the
receiver when you power off the machine. This will
eliminate searching for GPS and locking onto a signal
each time you cycle the power of the machine.
