17. RTK: Tracking

In this dialog you can select satellite constellations which the connected receiver will be tracking. To select a constellation, check the respective check boxes. Note that GPS constellation is always selected.

The Use All Signals option allows you to track extra signals from satellites in addition to the default ones. Refer the table below to see what signals are tracked by default, and which are extra (that is, tracked only when the Use All Signals option is checked):

GNSS System Signals Tracked by Default Extra Signals
GPS C/A, L1P, L2P L2C, L5
GLONASS C/A, L2C L1P, L2P, L3
Galileo E1, E5A, E5B E5AltBoc, E6
BeiDou B1, B2 B3
SBAS C/A L5
QZSS C/A, L2C L1C, L5
NavIC L5A

Enabling the Use all signals option is usually needed as a troubleshooting measure when working with 3rd-party receivers. It is not required for Topcon-Topcon surveys (i.e. surveys performed with Topcon receivers).


Note: The constellations and signals you have selected in this step of the wizard will be used for position computation in Standalone, DGPS and RTK solutions.

The configuration selected for tracking and positioning will work properly if you're using the hardware and firmware which support the selected signals.
