7. RTK: Rover Radio

To select and configure the rover radio for receiving differential corrections. The dialog content depends on the previously selected base radio, rover receiver model and the selected rover radio.

Select the device, either Receiver or Controller to which the modem is connected.

To configure the radio modem:

  1. In the Type field, select which type of Radio Modem you will use: Internal Radio, or Internal Cellular, or External Radio, or External Cellular.
  2. In the Model field, select model of the modem. The built-in LongLink™ module in HiPer SR, HiPer CR, HiPer VR, HiPer HR receivers and the built-in Long-Range Bluetooth module in Sokkia GSX2, GCX2, GCX3, GRX3 receivers do not require any additional settings.
  3. Depending on the selected radio, specify communication parameters for the receiver Port that the radio is connected to: the Baud rate, and also the Parity, the number of Data bits and the number of Stop bits required for some radios.
  4. Note: Sometimes during modem connection, for the "Auto" baud rate selection of the modem, the baud rate could not be set. The software displays an error message for this case: ”Modem baud rate could not be determined automatically. Please run TRU (see Help for details) or specify baud rate in configuration”. See here how to resolve the issue.

  5. If required, click Defaults to return all the communication parameters to the default settings.
  6. Click Next to specify the base and rover modem radio parameters as required.
