RTK Setup With Topcon GR-3 and FC-200 Data Collector
Select the location with the 1/ most open view to the sky and 2/highest in the field for optimal base antenna reception. Put in hub for IP1 or use existing benchmark.
Receivers:

1. Set-up tripod – center pole first – over hub or benchmark. Cotter pin in 1.8 meter hole, tighten knob. Unlock and extend side legs 1 @ a time, tighten loosely and push feet in, level tripod, then tighten legs firmly and lock the 3 levers at top plate. (antenna height of receiver on tripod is 1.8m ( 5.905 ft.) on solid ground)


2. Put Antennae on Base Receiver before turning the power on,
3. Loosen brass bolt from tripod plate and screw bolt onto bottom of base receiver. Place base receiver onto tripod plate. Tighten bolt.
4. If you are more than 30 miles from the last GPS survey or if the receiver has been off for a long time - turn on Base Receiver and collect data for 10 – 15 minutes.
4a. Press ON button until both the STAT and REC buttons turn green then release ON button. Wait a few minutes until the STAT light flashes green only – no red flashes (position solved).
4b. Press the Base receiver FUNCTION button until the REC turns from yellow to green, then release. This starts the Base receiver recording data. National Geodetic Survey strongly recommends logging for a minimum of 2 hours and up to 4 hours to get a reliable log file that can be used for upload to OPUS. Log files that contain less than 2 hours of log data will still provide a position, but OPUS will attach a disclaimer about the validity of the position.
5. Put Antennae on Rover #1 Receiver - Attach Rover Receiver on Rod with quick connect. Antenna height of receiver on rod is 1.830 m (6.004 ft.) (Rod set at 1.782 m., with quick connect add .048 m = 1.83 m). SNAP ROD INTO POSITION
6. Press the Rover receiver ON button until both the STAT and REC turn green then release ON button.
6a. If recording benchmarks, need a static point  Press the Rover receiver FUNCTION button until the REC turns from yellow to green, then release, this starts the Rover receiver recording data. Record benchmark for at least 5 minutes. Press FUNCTION button OFF until REC light goes out, to stop recording. Also take an RTK shot on the benchmark.
Note: When performing RTK surveys, Base Station Receiver will always be in Record mode. Rover Receiver will be in Record mode only when taking benchmark shots or other permanent elevation shots.

6b. On GPS Survey Job Information Sheet - record Base & Rover Antennae height and Position (use vertical* ), time receivers started, location, benchmark information, and other pertinent info about base receiver setup; take photo, if necessary.

*Vertical- measured from the bottom of the receiver at the base of the mounting threads to the marker on ground.

Truck Mount & Auto Topo:

***When using truck mount, be sure to measure and enter correct antennae height*

Rover antennae height on truck mount  position rod in truck mount and measure from bottom of rod to ground and add 1.83 m. to get total height in meters.


Miscellaneous Notes:

  1. To view a list of points collected EditPoints




  1. The “Topo” screen shows you some key information that you’ll want to be aware of while surveying. Note the “100%”, “Fixed”, “H”, “V”, etc. icons at the top of the “Topo” page. These are the status icons that show you the same information as the “Srv”, “Status” pages:

100% = Radio Link

Fixed, Float or Autonomous

H = Horizontal Precision

V = Vertical Precision

Number of Satellites being used = GPS and GLONASS

A Radio link icon that is Red (autonomous) indicates that the connection to the receiver is lost. This could be due to a dead battery, or too great a distance to the Base Receiver. Yellow (float) indicates obstructions – trees or buildings. Move Rover Receiver until Radio Link is “Fixed”.


  1. If Bluetooth communication is lost when using Base and/or Rover Receivers, you can connect the receiver to the data collector using the serial port on the front of the receiver and the serial cable (in the receiver case).

JobOBS MODEuncheck Bluetooth and connect serial port and cable to Rover receiver and data collector. Will hear a “whooshing” sound and you can continue survey.


  1. TURN OFF BLUETOOTH BETWEEN JOBS OR BATTERY DRAINS DEAD. Tap purple “windows” button on front of data collector. This will bring up dialog boxsetttingscontrol panelBTPowerPOWER OFF




  1. When stop survey for lunch or extended period, turn off Rover Antennae, Bluetooth, and Data Collector. Leave Base Receiver on. When start up again, turn on Rover Antennae, data collector, and Bluetooth. Bluetooth Manager will launch- Select desired Roverwill hear “whooshing” sound

SRVTOPO-settings-Fix Only- continue with RTK survey.




  1. For multi-day survey using same Static Base Station:

Day 1 - set base station tripod on hub, follow set-up procedure and name

Instrument Point - “ Base Pt. 1

Day 2 - set base station tripod on same hub; at “Start base” screen – select Point “One” and Code “ Base Pt. 1” from previous days’ survey and the same coordinates for base station will be used.
