56 Z-Family Techncial Reference Manual
No CPD solution • Verify that there are at least four common satellites between 
the base and the rover, using $PASHQ,CPD,INF command.
• Verify that base station coordinates have been received in the 
rover side, using $PASHQ,CPD,POS command. If the 
coordinates are not being received, make sure the base is 
sending them periodically, using $PASHQ,CPD,DLK 
command or $PASHQ,RTC command. Or you can enter the 
base station coordinates in the rover side, using 
$PASHS,CPD,POS command.
• For Z-Sensor, and Z-Eurocard, check that there are no 
warnings ($PASHQ,WARN).
CPD solution is intermittent 
and the Rover beeps
• Monitor the data link quality, using the $PASHQ,CPD,DLK 
command. The QA number should be 90% or higher.
• Verify that fast CPD is turned on, using $PASHQ,CPD or 
$PASHQ,CPD,MOD command.
• Verify the rover antenna has clear view to the sky and is 
tracking satellites properly.
Cannot get fixed CPD 
solution
• Verify using $PASHQ,CPD,INF command that at least 5 
SVs are being tracked for P1 and P2.
• Verify that the number of satellites common between the 
base and rover is 5 or more. Even if 5 or more satellites are 
tracked, you still may not get a fixed solution at locations 
with severe multipath. 
• Move away from the obstruction if possible. Issue 
$PASHS,CPD,RST command to reinitialize the CPD 
operation.
CPD solutions are not being 
stored in the Rover
• Verify that PC card is inserted. 
• Verify that $PASHQ,CPD,OUT is selected to output CPD 
solution. 
• Verify that REC is set to Y in $PASHR,RAW message.
• Verify there is still memory available.Verify the record 
interval.
Cannot get the CPD solution 
output in real-time
• Make sure the communication BAUD rate is correct. In 
RTCM operation, the receiver port is not being set to RTCM 
base or REMOTE.
• Verify the output selection, using $PASHQ,RAW and 
$PASHQ,PAR commands.
