RTK SoftKey
450 MHz RTK is supported by VI displays. These include
GreenStar 2 System™ Displays and SDUA. Configuration
with the original GreenStar™ Display is not supported.
Allows for setup and display of both Standard RTK and
450 MHz RTK information:
•
Operating Mode
•
RTK Network Configuration
•
Base Station Data
•
Radio Data
The 450 MHz RTK shares the same activation as 900
MHz RTK. The iTC receiver automatically detects which
radio is connected at startup and adjusts its screens for
the appropriate radio when the softkey is pressed.
450 MHz RTK can be operated in three modes:
•
Vehicle
•
Quick Survey Base
•
Absolute Base
IMPORTANT: Any time the radio is reconfigured
or changed, power must be cycled at the
GPS receiver before continuing.
Vehicle Mode Select this mode if the receiver is on a
vehicle.
Quick Survey Base Mode Select if exact location of
guidance tracks do not need to be stored for future
applications. If Quick Survey Base Mode is used to
establish rows or paths that will be used at a later date,
location or Track 0 must be stored using Current Track
0 in Guidance Setup – Set Track 0. When Track 0 is
recalled, a onetime use of Shift Track feature will be
needed to align vehicle on previous tracks.
Absolute Survey Base Mode Select if exact location of
guidance tracks need to be stored for future guidance
applications without relying on visual reference for track
position to align using Shift Track feature. Track 0 must

be stored using Current Track 0 in Guidance Setup – Set
Track 0 in order to follow previously used tracks. Absolute
Base Mode requires 24 hour self survey to be conducted
on location before first use. After survey is completed,
base station will then transmit corrections. If base station
is moved to another position and then returned to original
surveyed position, it is very important that base station is
mounted in exact same position. Any difference between
original surveyed position and mounted position will
result in offset of corrected position. For this reason, it
is important to mount receiver to a fixed position like a
building or post mounted in concrete.
OFF Mode This mode disables all RTK functionality in
receiver. RTK Operating Mode must be OFF for normal
SF1 or SF2 operation on SF2 licensed receiver.
