... Abridged version of notes from the RTK class.
- Set up Bluetooth communication with the GPS: General Survey -> Instruments -> GNSS functions -> Bluetooth
- identify both the rover and the base GPS here.
- Set the Survey Style: Main Menu -> Settings -> Survey Styles
- rtk int radio = internal radios on both gps
- RTK = use an external radio for the base.
to be continued...
