Trimble R8 GPS Receiver Operation
Note – The frequencies that you program must conform to the
channel spacing and minimum tuning requirements for the
radio. To view this information, click
Radio Info. You may select
either 12.5 or 25 kHz channel spacing. All radios in your
network must use the same channel spacing.
9. When you have configured all the frequencies you require, click
OK.
The WinFlash software updates the receiver radio frequencies
and then restarts the receiver.
Note – You can only configure receive frequencies. The FCC approved
transmit frequencies must be specified and configured by Trimble.
