Confirming Device Operation
Confirm Power to the Unit
After plugging in the power connector, the unit will flash all of its LEDs. Confirm the power LED is
green. If red, reverse the voltage supplied to the unit.
Confirming SD Cards Mounted
Shortly after start up the processor, will try to mount the SD cards, and the LED should change
from Red to Green. If the LED is red or yellow check that the cartridge and SDs are correctly
mounted.
Confirming GNSS Receiver Operation
60 to 90 seconds after start-up, the GNSS receiver will power on and restore its configured
settings. The GNSS LED will initially be red after configuring the GNSS receiver. The receiver will
begin tracking satellites when the first valid position fix comes in (i.e. tracking 4 satellite or more)
and the LED will turn yellow.
Confirming RTK Radio Operation (Base)
60 to 90 seconds after start-up the GNSS modem will power on and configure. The GNSS LED will
initially be red. If it does not have a Base position stored, the GNSS receiver will use the first valid
position it receives as the base position. If this is the first time the unit has been at this location
resetting the Base is advised to ensure the Base position is correct. Do not rely on the unit not
having a Base position. After getting a Base position the GNSS will reset and start up. When the
GNSS receiver get valid positions to generate corrections the GNSS LED will go change to yellow.
The Base GNSS LED stays yellow during normal operation.
After the GNSS LED turns yellow, the Radio LED should change to yellow to indicate the
corrections are being sent over the radio. If a Rover is active in the field and configured correctly,
the radio LED should go green.
Confirming RTK Radio Operation (Rover)
30 to 60 seconds after start-up the radio should power on red. The radio will take a minute or
two to configure. After which if the antenna is correctly pointed to a corrections source, the radio
LED should go yellow.
60 to 90 seconds after the unit changing to yellow, the radio should confirm registration with the
Base, at which point it will go green. This confirms two-way communication with the Base or
NorthStar.
60 to 90 seconds after start-up the GNSS receiver will power on and configure. The GNSS LED will
initially be red after configuring the GNSS receiver, the receiver will begin tracking satellites,
when the first valid position fix comes in the LED will turn yellow. If the radio is receiving good
