34 Post-Process GPS Surveying
As with performing a static survey, the only parameter that may require to be
changed is the recording interval. The recording interval is set to 20 seconds
by default. As stated earlier, an interval of 1-5 seconds is normally used for
kinematic data collection. The recording interval can be set using the field
application software running on the handheld computer.
It is very important that the recording interval on the rover is set to the save interval as the base.
Refer to the documentation for the field application software for specific steps
on how to set recording interval in the receiver.
7. Verify operation
Perform the following observations to determine if the rover system is
functioning properly:
Determine if the rover receiver is observing satellites and recording data.
This can be accomplished by either using the field application software
running on the handheld computer or the display on the receiver.
The rover system is now functioning as a kinematic rover, and ready to
perform a Kinematic survey. Figure 4.8 shows what the rover system should
look like once fully configured and ready to survey.
