Performing a Factory Reset
The receiver’s Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) holds data required for satellite tracking, such as
ephemeris data and receiver position. The NVRAM also keeps the current receiver’s settings, such as active
antenna input, elevation masks and recording interval, and information about the receiver’s internal file system.
A factory reset clears the receiver’s NVRAM and restores the receiver’s factory default settings.
Although a factory reset or clearing the NVRAM is not recommended as a common practice, there are times
when it can eliminate communication or tracking problems.
After a factory reset, the receiver requires time to collect new ephemerides and almanacs (about 15 minutes).
A factory reset will not delete any files already recorded in the receiver’s memory, and the NVRAM keeps
information about the receiver file system.
There are two ways you can perform a factory reset: using SRU and using the LED display panel.
Using SRU to clear the NVRAM:
1. Connect the receiver to a computer, and open SRU. See the
Sokkia Receiver Utility

for
more information about connecting the receiver to a computer.
2. In SRU, connect to the receiver.
