Configuring the Receiver Settings 6
Installing new versions of the Configuration Toolbox software into a directory
containing a previous version overwrites the older program and data files. By default,
application files located in the root installation folder, C:\TOOLBOX, are moved to the
APPFILE\ subfolder.
The installation program creates the subfolders shown in Table 6.1 within the
installation folder.
Configuring the receiver using the Configuration Toolbox software
1. Select Start / Programs / Trimble / Configuration Toolbox.
2. Select File / New /SPSx80 or SPS770.
3. Make the appropriate selections for your receiver settings. For more
information, see the Help and the Configuration Toolbox User Guide.
4. To save the application file, select File / Save As.
Make sure that you specify the same 8-character file name when you save the file both
in the computer and on the receiver, as shown in the Configuration File dialog:
