Activating a
Firmware Option
Mobile Mapper 300 can operate in four different accuracy
modes:
• 30/30
•7/2
•Full RTK
•RTX
The first one (30/30) is available as standard and so is used
by default. Being able to use one of the other three modes
requires that you first purchase the corresponding firmware
option and you activate this option in the receiver.
This is how you can do this:
• Place an order for the desired option to Spectra
Precision’s Order Administration (or possibly to the Sales
Manager). The serial number of your MobileMapper 300
is required to place the order.
NOTE: The RTX option should be purchased via the
Spectra Precision reseller store.
• After the purchase is effective, you will receiver an email
containing the option code corresponding to the
purchased option. This option code can only be activated
in the receiver for which you provided the serial number.
• Get a Bluetooth-enabled, Internet-connected computer
and then proceed to the next step.
• Download WinFlash (a Trimble utility software application)
from the Spectra Precision website:
http://www.spectraprecision.com/products/gis-mobile-mapping/
mobilemapper-300/
(Under the SUPPORT section.) The installation file for
WinFlash is WFC-MM300-NoFW.exe.
• Double-click the exe file to start installing WinFlash on the
computer. Proceed as instructed to complete the
installation.
• Turn on your MobileMapper 300 and check that the blue
LED starts blinking after the receiver has initialized.
• From the computer, using its Bluetooth Manager, initiate
a Bluetooth connection with MobileMapper 300:
– Scan the Bluetooth neighborhood.
– Select the Bluetooth device name corresponding to
your MobileMapper 300.
– Select the serial port profile provided by the
MobileMapper 300.
