26 Setting Up the PDL Rover
Configuring the GPS Rover
See the GPS receiver model addendum that is included with this
manual for specific instructions on configuring your GPS rover
for optimal performance with the PDL. Detailed instructions are
also available on our web site at www.pacificcrest.com.
PDL Rover Default Settings
Refer to Table 1 in Setting Up the PDL Base for the default
factory settings of your PDL Rover.
Priority Power Selection
Power may be supplied externally to the PDL Rover if supported
by the connected GPS receiver. If power is available from the
GPS, the PDL Rover will first use the internal battery power until
depleted, and then switch to external GPS supplied power.
As the internal power is depleted to a level indicating that the
internal battery should be charged, the power LED begins
blinking at once-per-second. When the battery is depleted to a
very low level, the external power will be selected and the power
LED will "blip" a short flash at once-per-second.
Battery Care
The PDL Rover has an internal power supply that allows all-day
operation without taking power from the GPS. The light-weight
Lithium-Ion single cell battery can be recharged more than 1000
times, providing 3+ years of normal use. We recommend daily
charging for best battery life and performance.
