Chapter 2. Using the Web Server Introduction What is the ProFlex Web Server and what is it for? The ProFlex Web Server is a receiver-embedded, HTML-based firmware application designed to enable users to monitor or control the ProFlex 800 through a TCP/IP connection. After making a TCP/IP connection physically possible between a computer and the receiver (via its Ethernet port), run a web browser on your computer (e.g. Mozilla FireFox, Microsoft Internet Explorer).
Using the Web Server Note that this count of five simultaneous users does not include those users who are connected to the receiver for acquiring data through ports Ix (data streaming). Getting the ProFlex 800 Ready for Running the Web Server This section is more particularly intended for the receiver owner, who is also the receiver administrator. In this section are described several possible cases of TCP/IP connection between the receiver and the computer, depending on the network environment.
Using the Web Server In this case of use, the receiver and the computer are connected to the same local area network (LAN) and may even be in the same room. Here the communication will NOT take place through the public Internet, but simply within the local network. The connection diagram typically is the following.
Using the Web Server TCP/IP Connection Through the Public Internet In this case of use, the receiver and the computer are connected to different local networks. Here the communication will necessarily take place through the public Internet. The connection diagram typically is the following.
Using the Web Server The term “Direct” used here should not be confused with the “Direct IP” connection mode, which is a special case of Internet connection to a static IP address. Here the term “Direct” is used to describe a TCP/IP connection between a receiver and a local computer through a special Ethernet connection, using a crossover cable connected directly between the receiver and the computer. In a crossover cable, the pinout is inverted at one end of the cable.
Using the Web Server Bluetooth (see ProFlex 800 Reference Manual, Using Serial Commands Chapter, for more information) $PASHQ,ETH Example of receiver response: $PASHR,ETH,I,ON,00:09:66:00:10:a0,10.20.2.123,DHP=1,ADD=192.168. 0.1,MSK=255.255.255.0,GTW=255.255.255.255,DN1=255.255.255.255,D N2=255.255.255.
Using the Web Server 10.Enter a different IP address for the computer (e.g. 10.20.2.2). Enter the same subnetwork mask and gateway as those entered above in the receiver through the $PASHS,ETH,PAR command. 11.Click OK twice to close the windows. 12.Connect the crossover cable between the receiver and the computer. 13.Check that the new IP address displayed on the receiver screen is the expected one. 14.Open the web browser on the computer. 15.Type the receiver IP address in the address box.
Using the Web Server Managing the Connection Profiles Managing connection profiles can be done directly from the ProFlex Web Server after you have logged in as the administrator. In this context, go to the Configuration tab and use the Advanced Setup menu (Administrator and Users submenus) to make the required changes.
Using the Web Server 2. Make sure your computer is also ready for a TCP/IP connection. 3. Launch the web browser on your computer. 4. In the Address box of the web browser, type the IP address or host name of the receiver: http:// then press the Enter key. After the connection has successfully been established, the ProFlex Web Server Home tab appears in your web browser. 5. Click on the Status tab.
Using the Web Server Several percentages are available. Choosing a high percentage will result in a highly reliable process but is liable to reduce the availability level of “fixed” RTK positions. The default -and best- value for this parameter is 99.0%. With no relevant firmware options installed, only the “0%” choice is available. This choice allows the receiver to operate in Flying RTK mode, which will be effective only if the FLYING RTK option ([R] option) has been installed.
Using the Web Server Antenna radius ARP SHMP SHMP Offset Antenna Model P/N Antenna Radius (m) SHMP Offset (m) ASH-661 802135 0.0953 0.0483 ASH-660 802133 MAG111406 111406 0.0921 0.0516 NOTE: The Antenna Radius and SHMP Offset fields are automatically preset to the right values when you select an antenna type in the Receiver Antenna field. – Virtual Antenna: This option is useful when the rover is also used to log raw data.
Using the Web Server listed below and described one after the other in the next sections: – Internal radio – Direct IP via modem – Direct IP via Ethernet – NTRIP client via Ethernet – RTK corrections received on port A, B or F – Rover operating in Flying RTK mode. – Rover operating in Hot Standby RTK.
Using the Web Server Now that the radio is on, proceed with the last settings required on the radio side. • Click on the Connections menu and then on the Radio submenu. • In the Internal Radio pane, set the following parameters: – Power: (it is now necessarily “On” as you have turned on the radio in a previous step to make its configuration possible.
Using the Web Server Direct IP Via Modem Base ProFlex 800 IP address or server name (Client) Internet Modem (Mobile Wireless Communication) RTK Corrections The internal modem should be configured first: • Click on the Connections menu and then on the Bluetooth/ Modem sub-menu. • Set the following parameters in the Internal Modem/Device Settings pane: – Power: Select “On”.
Using the Web Server • Now please follow all the steps described in section General Parameters on page 49 and then proceed with the steps below. • Still on the Rover Setup page, in the Network pane, set the following parameters: – Connection: Choose “Modem Direct IP - Port E”.
Using the Web Server – DHCP: Enabling this option means the local network to which the receiver is connected will automatically allocate a dynamic IP address to the receiver. If this option is disabled, you need to define the receiver’s static IP address, and give information about the local network (Subnetwork Mask and Gateway). You may need to be assisted by a network expert -or IT Manager- to define these parameters (as well as the three parameters below).
Using the Web Server authentication (e.g. SpiderNet). In that case, the message “$GPUID,, will be generated automatically and sent to the server when clicking on Configure Enable Connect Now to allow the receiver to establish the connection right after you have clicked on Configure. • At the bottom of the page, in the Differential Port pane, select the Automatic option to let the receiver detect the incoming differential stream automatically.
Using the Web Server – Pin: 4- to 8-character pin code of the SIM card used in the modem for GPRS operation. – 2G Only: Recommended to save power. • Set the following parameters in the Internal Modem/GPRS Mode Settings pane (the mobile communication provider you are using should be able to give you all this information): – Internet Protocol: Choose the Internet protocol (TCP or UDP) allowing the modem to perform an Internet connection. – Access Point: Enter the URL of the mobile communication provider.
Using the Web Server Select the desired source by simply clicking on the corresponding row. The resulting mount point then appears in the Mount Point field located above the Load Source Table button. – Send NMEA: Check this button when the rover operates in a VRS network so that it can return its position to the network through an NMEA message. Keep it cleared in all other cases. (This option is automatically enabled when you select a mount point for which the NMEA message is requested.
Using the Web Server NTRIP Client Via Ethernet NTRIP caster IP address or server name ProFlex 800 (Client) Internet Ethernet RTK Corrections • First, click on the Connections> Ethernet submenu. • Set the following Ethernet parameters to allow the receiver to access the network through its Ethernet port: – DHCP: Enabling this option means the local network to which the receiver is connected will automatically allocate a dynamic IP address to the receiver.
Using the Web Server • Unless already done, please follow all the steps described in section General Parameters on page 49 before proceeding with the steps below. • Still on the Rover Setup page, in the Network pane, set the following parameters: – Connection: Choose “Ethernet Ntrip Client - Port P”.
Using the Web Server • At the bottom of the page, in the Differential Port pane, select the Automatic option to let the receiver detect the incoming differential stream automatically. NOTE: Automatic is the recommended choice for the Differential Port setting because in this case, you don’t need to define the ports receiving the two possible differential streams. • Click on the Configure button to let the Web Server load all your new parameters to the receiver.
Using the Web Server • Click on the Configure button to let the Web Server load all your new parameters to the receiver. • If the external radio used is a standalone, non-identified radio receiver, skip this step. But if an ARF7474x licensefree radio is used, click on the Connections> Radio submenu and from the Type field located in the External Radio pane, select the type of license free radio used. Then click on the Configure button.
Using the Web Server Rover Operating in Hot Standby RTK Hot Standby RTK is the process of making available a second RTK position solution in the background. Should the primary RTK solution stop being delivered by the receiver for some reason, then the second RTK solution would be provided instead, until the primary RTK solution is back again and valid. If you wish to make available this background solution, then enable the Hot Standby RTK option at bottom of the page.

Using the Web Server – After all your messages have been defined, don’t forget to click on Configure to save all the message definitions. • Click on the Raw Data Messages submenu. Use the page that opens to program the type of raw data you would like the receiver to record. Manual raw data will later be initiated either remotely by enabling the Data Recording box on the Recording web page, or locally using the Log button on the receiver front panel.
Using the Web Server • Whatever the way RTK corrections are transmitted to users (rovers), you will always have to define a number of general parameters pertaining to the base function. These parameters are usually defined first. However when the internal modem is used, it is advisable to configure the modem first.
Using the Web Server NTRIP caster, through two distinct mount points managed by the caster. • Programming the data generated by a base is addressed separately (see Defining the Data Generated by a Base on page 70 and Rover Operating in Flying RTK Mode on page 63). • Configuring a permanently operating reference station is addressed in separate manuals (ProFlex 800 CORS Getting Started Guide for the short version, and also the CORS Station Chapter in this manualthe ProFlex 800 Reference Manual).
Using the Web Server – Receiver Antenna: Specify the model of GNSS antenna used by the receiver. Select “UNKNOWN” if you don’t know which model is used. – Antenna Radius: In case of a “Slant Height” measurement, enter the antenna radius (this is a manufacturer specification), taking care to enter this parameter in the selected distance unit. See also the diagram below for more information.
Using the Web Server • Set the parameters relevant to the GNSS constellations used by the receiver: – Recording and Output Elevation Mask: Choose the elevation angle above the horizon creating the desired mask. After setting this angle, any satellite seen from the base with an elevation angle less than the specified one will be rejected from the list of tracked satellites. The recording elevation mask affects the measurements recorded in G-files and the differential messages generated by the receiver.
Using the Web Server To define differential data messages, click on Data Output, then on the Differential Messages submenu. Use the page that opens as explained below: • All the message types pertaining to a given data format are listed vertically. These are the following: Format ATOM RNX RTCM2.3 RTCM 3.0 & 3.1 RTCM 3.
Using the Web Server meet this requirement rather than a radio used in difficult reception conditions. But on the other hand, using a compact format seems more especially appropriate to radio links, owing to their potentially limited data throughput. So there is some sort of compromise to find here. So What Should I Choose? In practice, Spectra precision recommends that you follow these rules: 1.
Using the Web Server Protocol/ Scenario ATOM RNX (SCN,101) RTCM-3 GPS+GLONASS L1/L2 GPS+GLONASS L1 (L1CA only) GPS L1/L2 86* 75* 70* 338 (MT 1004,1012) 214 (MT 1002,1010) 202 (MT 1004) * Worst-case estimates. Real throughputs are often shorter by 4 to 8 bytes. NOTE: For more information on the size of ATOM messages, please refer to the ATOM Reference Manual. • The ports used to make the differential messages available to users are defined on the Base Setup page.
Using the Web Server – Deleting a message definition can be done by simply clicking on the corresponding “trash” sign in the Clear column on the far right. This deletes the table row. – There is also a Clear All button under the table that allows you to delete all message definitions from the table in one click.
Using the Web Server you will see the detail of the selected data on the right of this field, as defined in Data Output > Differential Messages. • In the Device field, select the type of the radio transmitter the base is using (the internal or an external one). Depending on the type of radio used, you will have to provide the following parameters to complete the configuration of the radio.
Using the Web Server • Click on the Configure button to let the Web Server load all your new parameters to the receiver and the radio. You have now reached the end of the configuration phase. Direct IP Via Modem Users ProFlex 800 (Client) Internet Modem (Mobile Wireless Communication) The internal modem should be configured first: • Click on the Connections menu and then on the Bluetooth/ Modem sub-menu. • Set the following parameters in the Internal Modem/Device Settings pane: – Power: Select “On”.
Using the Web Server – Access Point: Enter the URL of the mobile communication provider. – Access Point Login: Enter the login of the mobile communication provider. – Password: Enter the password of the mobile communication provider. • Click on the Configure button. • Now please follow all the steps described in section General Parameters on page 68 and then proceed with the steps below.
Using the Web Server • First, click on the Connections> Ethernet submenu. • Set the following Ethernet parameters to allow the receiver to access the network through its Ethernet port: – DHCP: Enabling this option means the local network to which the receiver is connected will automatically allocate a dynamic IP address to the receiver. If this option is disabled, you need to define the receiver’s static IP address, and give information about the local network (Subnetwork Mask and Gateway).
Using the Web Server Enable Connect Now to allow the receiver to establish the connection right after you have clicked on Configure. • In the corresponding Differential Stream x pane, choose Port= “P - Ethernet” as the output port delivering the generated differential data. In the Message field, choose the type of differential message provided through this port (ATOM, RTCM, CMR, CMR+ or DBEN). NOTE: The receiver has been designed to offer two separate and independent differential data outputs.
Using the Web Server setting the modem to “Power On” (or using the $PASHS,MDM,ON command). – Automatic Connection: Check this option. – 2G Only: Enabling this check box will limit the use of the modem only if a 2G mobile communication network is available in the working area. When it is cleared, the modem will be allowed to operate either in a 2G or 3G network, whichever is available. – Pin: 4- to 8-character pin code of the SIM card used in the modem for GPRS operation.
Using the Web Server • Click on the Configure button to let the Web Server load all your new parameters to the receiver. You have now reached the end of the configuration phase. NTRIP Server Via Ethernet CAREFUL: In the RTCM sense, an “NTRIP server” is a source of corrections feeding an NTRIP caster (see RTCM paper 200-2004/SC104-ST). But from the point of view of the network terminology, an “NTRIP server” is a client, not a server.
Using the Web Server define these parameters (as well as the three parameters below). If you activate the DHCP option, then it’s a good idea to define a hostname for your receiver and declare it to DynDNS (see DynDNS frame at the bottom of the page). DynDNS is a free service that will make sure the dynamic IP address allotted to the receiver by your ISP is always attached to your receiver’s hostname. This requires that you open an account on DynDNS.
Using the Web Server • Resume the above settings for the second NTRIP server if you need one. • Click on the Configure button to let the Web Server load all your new parameters to the receiver. You have now reached the end of the configuration phase.

Using the Web Server Heading Accuracy (°) 1 0.1 0.01 0.001 0.1 1 10 100 1000 Baseline Length (m) This chart deserves a few more comments and explanations: • Accuracy has a linear relationship to baseline length. However a too long baseline length can result in differential multipath between antennas and introduction of vehicle flexing into the heading solution. These two factors are detrimental to heading accuracy. In addition, the longer the baseline length, the longer the calibration sequence.
Using the Web Server antennas at different elevations. If that is the case, this is how you should calculate the elevation offset between the two antennas after measuring the elevation deviation and the baseline length. The sign of the elevation offset is also provided on the diagram below (elevation offset negative if Antenna #2 is lower than Antenna #1 and vice versa).
Using the Web Server Bas Dire eline ction Vehicle Centerline Forward movement Azimuth Offset (°) Antenna #1 Antenna #2 The non-alignment of the baseline with the vehicle centerline may be intentional (see explanations in the next section below). Correlation Between Azimuth Offset, Antenna Setup & Measurements Made Consider the following four setups before installing your antennas. A ship is shown in the examples but this could be any other type of vehicle.
Using the Web Server Delivering an RTK Position for Antenna #1 There may be an additional requirement you should take into account when setting up your antennas for heading measurements, which is the fact that your application may also require that the receiver deliver an RTK solution of position for Antenna #1. In this case, the absolute location of Antenna #1 in the vehicle is probably critical and this will impact the location of Antenna #2 as well.

RTK Configuration Steps Direct IP Connection To Your Own Base Through GPRS Modem and RTDS Software Introduction Until recently, Direct IP connections from Spectra Precision rovers were possible only with third-party reference stations. Today, with the Spectra Precision RTDS1 software, you can also have your own base transmitting its corrections to your rovers through a Direct IP connection. In this configuration, the RTDS software serves as the relaying device between the base and the rovers.
RTK Configuration Steps • Several instances of the RTDS software can be run on the same computer, meaning the same computer can serve as data relay for several bases. • Up to 100 rovers can receive data from a single instance of the RTDS software. All rovers communicate with a given instance of RTDS through the same port number. Configuration Modes The diagram below summarizes the possible two cases of use for the RTDS software with your system.
RTK Configuration Steps 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Unless you already have a static IP address, or if you don’t know whether you have one or not, call your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to obtain a static IP address for the computer on which you will install the RTDS software. With most ISPs, you’ll have to pay a fee to get a static IP address option for your computer. You then have to choose one or two port numbers. depending on whether you will be using the GPRS-toGPRS or Serial-to-GPRS mode.
RTK Configuration Steps 7. Start the RTDS server and let the software run throughout your field survey, or permanently if you wish to set up a community base station. 8. Set the base in Direct IP mode so that it sends its corrections to the RTDS software. When defining the Direct IP connection, you need to enter: • The static IP address of the computer running the RTDS software.

Chapter 6. Integrating ProFlex 800 into Your Application Installation Instructions GNSS Antenna First find the best place to install the GNSS antenna. Follow the usual recommendations for a GNSS antenna. Remember that the chosen location should be free of any close obstacles that could hinder GNSS reception, and mechanically safe for the antenna (no nearby parts in motion liable to damage the antenna). Make sure you can easily measure the antenna height from where you install it.
Integrating ProFlex 800 into Your Application 100 mm (3.93 “) 100 mm (3.93 “) • After you have decided where to install the GNSS antenna, find the best place to install the receiver, making sure the signal level at the GNSS antenna input will always stay within the permitted range: +23 dB < LNA Gain - RF network loss < +45 dB This has an impact on the type of coaxial cable you will be using as well as its length.
Integrating ProFlex 800 into Your Application • Make room for the receiver, allowing for enough space at the rear and at the front of the receiver to accommodate the receiver itself and the cables connected to it, and also the Bluetooth and cellular antennas if used. If the internal battery is used (recommended for backup DC source in case of power outage), allow for enough space near the trapdoor so it can be easily opened to insert or remove the battery.
Integrating ProFlex 800 into Your Application Depending on your answers to these questions, you will orientate the receiver accordingly, making sure you can easily access the panel you need to use most. NOTE: With the receiver installed on-board a vehicle, if a cellular connection is used, you may need, for best coverage, to use an external cellular antenna rather than the one that can be screwed directly to the front panel of the receiver.

Chapter 7. Ethernet Connection Setting Up the Ethernet Connection The Ethernet adaptor cable provided (P/N 702426) should be used in all cases. In this case of use, the receiver and the remote system the receiver has to communicate with are connected to the same local network (LAN) and may even be in the same room. Here the communication will NOT take place through the public Internet, but simply within the local network. The connection diagram typically is the following.
Ethernet Connection The IT Manager may also create a host name for the receiver. The choice of using or not using the DHCP mode within the local network, and the consequence of this choice on which information to provide to the remote system for the connection are also the decision and responsibility of the IT Manager. When DHCP is used, an account may be opened on DynDNS.com to track the dynamic IP address assigned by the ISP to the receiver’s public access point. See Creating an Account on Dyn.
Ethernet Connection In this configuration, the IT Manager should take all the necessary steps for the remote system to be able to access the ProFlex 800 through the public IP address of the local network. The IP address read on the receiver display screen is NOT the one to be provided to the remote system. It will therefore be the responsibility of the IT Manager to provide the receiver administrator with the appropriate connection information ( or host name).

Ethernet Connection communication with the outside equipment. Running the Web Server The Web Server is used to remotely configure and monitor the ProFlex 800. Using the Web Server is fully described in Using the Web Server on page 41. Below are a few key instructions on how to use the Web Server: • The $PASHS,WEB,PAR command controls locally the availability of the Web Server for a remote user or administrator. Only the receiver owner can run this command locally.
Ethernet Connection • Uploading files to the FTP server is done using the $PASHS,FTP,PUT command. • Using the ProFlex Web Server is the easiest way to set up FTP connections. Data Input/Output Through Port I When used as an output, typically when the receiver is a base, port I may forward differential data to a client (see $PASHS,BAS).
Ethernet Connection • Still as an output, typically when the receiver is a rover, port P or Q may provide NMEA messages to a server (see $PASHS,NME). • Port P or Q can also be used as an input for differential data (see $PASHS,CPD,REM). This may be typically the case when the receiver is used as a rover. Here are a few key instructions to understand how to use port P or Q through an IP connection: • Port P or Q can only be used in client mode, using the TCP or UDP protocol.

Chapter 8. Using Serial Commands Introduction to Serial Commands Serial commands allow you to communicate directly with the receiver in its proprietary command language. Serial commands can be used for various purposes such as: • Changing default settings • Monitoring different receiver statuses (internal operation, constellations, etc.) • Outputting messages on request • Installing firmware options, etc. Serial commands fall into two categories: • Set commands ($PASHS,...
Using Serial Commands String or sign [ ] , . c.. d.. f.. h.. m.. n s.. *cc Description Optional field or parameter Field delimiter Decimal point (used in f-type fields) One-character string Integer Real number, with decimal places Parameter in hexadecimal notation Denotes specific data format used, such as angles (e.g. ddmm.mmm) or time (e.g. hhmmss.sss) Used in the syntax of responses to query commands to indicate that a sequence of parameters will be repeated “n” times in the response.
Using Serial Commands Interfacing the chosen program with the receiver is achieved by establishing a connection through one of the computer’s COM port (a serial data cable is then required), or using Bluetooth if this device is available on the computer. For more information on WinComm, see GNSS Solutions Reference Manual or WinComm On-Line Help.
Using Serial Commands Running a Series of Commands First of all, you need to create a TXT file containing all the commands you want the receiver to run. Save the file to the “MyDevice/FAST Survey/Data/” folder. Then do the following: • Use the Send File button in the upper part of the window to select the TXT file and send it to the receiver.
Using Serial Commands If you choose a static IP address for the receiver, the command must also include the following parameters that the administrator of your local network (LAN) should provide you with: • Static IP address • Sub-network mask • Gateway IP address • DNS 1 IP address and DSN 2 IP address. These two parameters are used to link the receiver name with an IP address. The $PASHQ,ETH command can be used to check the settings. Script example: $PASHS,ETH,PAR,DHP,0,ADD,10.20.2.28,MSK,255.255.255.
Using Serial Commands RJ45 Receiver Standard RJ45 cable 26 24 N P/ Hub, switch or Modem 70 Internet Ethernet port Ask your network administrator to make the receiver visible from the public network (Internet) according to the choices made earlier for the TCP/IP connection. Make sure that the chosen port (IP port No. 8888 by default) can be reached. The IP port number can be defined using the $PASHS,TCP,PAR command.
Using Serial Commands display the Receiver Identification screen. The IP address is shown in the lower line. • Enter the chosen IP port number (default: 8888) in the Port number field. • Click OK. You get the following reply from the connected receiver: Welcome! You are connected to the Ashtech receiver (SN:xxxxxxxxx).
Using Serial Commands Running Serial Commands from a USB Key Serial commands can also be run from a USB key you connect to the receiver’s USB port through the dedicated cable. What you have to do is create a text file containing the list of serial commands you would like the receiver to execute. In this file can also be inserted the $PASHS,CMD,WTI command, which is used to introduce an idle time before the receiver is allowed to execute the command that comes after.
Using Serial Commands • Wait until the USB logo appears on the receiver screen and a message is prompted (Upload Script?). • Accept the request by pressing the Log button (you could reject it by pressing the Scroll button). The receiver will then start executing the script of commands. This is indicated on the display screen where you can see the number of commands to be run (on the right) and the rank of the command being currently run (on the left).
Using Serial Commands In each of the two tables below, the commands appear in alphabetical order. All pairs of related set and query commands (e.g. $PASHS,ANH and $PASHQ,ANH) appear in the same row.

Chapter 12. Troubleshooting Receiver is Not Tracking Satellites Relevant to Step 1. Has the Receiver Been Powered Up? RTK Base RTK Rover PP Base PP Rover • • • • To determine if the receiver is powered up, examine the power LED on the front panel of the receiver. If the LED is on, the receiver is on. 1. If the receiver is not powered up, turn on the receiver by pressing and holding the power key on the front panel. The button must be held for a few seconds since there is a delay in power on.
Troubleshooting 3. If the receiver is now powered up, go to step 2. Step 2. Does the Number of Tracked Satellites Stay Abnormally Low? 1. Check the information displayed on the receiver front panel. In the upper line, starting from the left, the first number displayed should gradually rise from 0 to 8 or more. This information represents the number of tracked satellites. In the same time, the last number in the same line should increase as well, in the same proportion.
Troubleshooting if not a single satellite is received during this time, then your raw data file will be empty. 2. If the problem is not yet resolved, go to step 2. Step 2. Is the Currently Selected Memory Usable? The receiver logs raw data to the internal memory (recommended) or to a USB stick. With the default settings, the selected memory is the internal memory. Changing the storage medium can only be made through $PASH,MEM or using FAST Survey.
Troubleshooting If neither of these two actions resolves your problem, you may have a malfunctioning receiver. Contact your local dealer or email Ashtech Technical Support for assistance. 2. If the memory is not full (>0%), you may have a malfunctioning receiver. Contact your local dealer or email Ashtech Technical Support for assistance.
Troubleshooting Step 2. Is the Radio Antenna Connected to the Radio Module? The radio module cannot operate properly without an antenna. Make sure the antenna is connected to the radio module. 1. If the antenna is not connected, connect the radio antenna (provided in the radio receiver kit) to the radio module. Ensure that the connection is secure. If the problem is not yet resolved, go to step 3 2. If the antenna is connected, ensure the connection to the radio module is secure.
Troubleshooting Step 5. Are you Within Range Specifications of Your Radio System? The range within which your radio system will function varies greatly with the conditions under which the system is being used. With clear line of sight between the base and rover radio antennas, and no interference on the frequencies you are working on, a UHF system can function with tens of miles of separation. Unfortunately, these are ideal situations seldom found.
Troubleshooting 2. If there is jamming: • Lower the sensitivity of the rover radio. FAST Survey lets you change the sensitivity of the rover radio, and you can also lower the sensitivity of the PDL radio via the front panel display. Lower the sensitivity of the rover to medium or low. If the traffic on your frequency is not strong in power, lowering the sensitivity of the rover radio may cause the radio to ignore the traffic.
Troubleshooting To determine if the rover is computing a fixed position, you can read the General Status screen (2nd parameter in upper line), or use FAST Survey (Equip tab, Monitor Skyplot function). Using either the display screen or FAST Survey, you have determined that the rover system is not computing a “Fixed” position. Follow the steps outlined below to troubleshoot this problem. Step 1.
Troubleshooting • Move the base or rover if sites have satellite obstructions. If your base or rover site has any obstructions 5° above the horizon, the obstructions may be blocking essential satellites. If obstructions exist at the base or the rover, move the system to an open area. If the problem is not yet resolved and at least 5 satellites are now tracked and used, your rover may be malfunctioning. Contact your local dealer or email Ashtech technical support for assistance. 2.
Troubleshooting Step 2. Are the Base and Rover Tracking at least 5 common Satellites? Although the rover is capable of computing a position with only 4 common healthy satellites with the base, the rover will not attempt to fix ambiguities unless 5 common healthy satellites are observed. Fixing ambiguities is a required process for the rover to compute highly precise RTK positions. The receiver will inform you if you currently have a fixed ambiguity solution or a float ambiguity solution.
Troubleshooting Therefore, poor satellite geometry will result in poor solution precision. The smaller the DOP value, the better the geometry and solution precision. FAST Survey can view current DOP values. If your precision estimates (HRMS, VRMS) do not meet expected values, use this feature to examine the current DOP values. 1.
Troubleshooting Logging Data for RTK Troubleshooting Purposes - Reporting a Problem to Ashtech Tech Support Logging the data received, processed and output by the receiver may help Ashtech isolate RTK malfunction when none of the available troubleshooting procedures has allowed you to solve the problem. This procedure is based on the capability of the receiver to execute serial commands from a text file stored on a USB key. You can create by yourself the text file required to launch this process.
Troubleshooting $PASHQ,VERSION $PASHQ,OPTION $PASHQ,PAR Log these responses in Terminal mode (with Hyperterminal for example) at a speed of 19600 Bd in a text file (*.txt). List of Alarms Alarms are reported on the receiver display screen. A blinking warning sign appears on the status screen prompting you to press the Scroll button so you can read the alarm label. To acknowledge an alarm message once the alarm label is displayed on the screen, press the Scroll button again.
