device from the Google play store.

In the Settings panel from Collector, open the
Location Provider and select the receiver you
want to use. If the Altus NR3 receiver is not yet in
the list, tap on the + icon and select it from the
list of available devices.

If you are mounting the receiver or antenna on a
pole, specify the height of the pole along with
any distances from the bottom of the receiver to
the phase center of the antenna.

Tap Add to add the receiver to the location
provider list and switch to using the Altus NR3.
Differential Corrections can be received either using the Altus NR3 Cellular modem or by
using the PinPoint-GIS App. If the PinPoint-GIS App is used then it is recommended to use
a WiFi connection for the PinPoint-GIS App connection so that Bluetooth port can be used
for the Collector app.
