Q Autobase Process
Autobase is a feature of the Trimble SPS GPS
receivers that enables you to reduce daily setup
time for mobile base stations and to reduce the
likelihood of using incorrect base station
coordinates during setup.
The Autobase feature allows you to set up the
SPS GPS receivers as a base station receiver and
save you time so you do not need to reconfigure
the receiver at the start of each day. It also allows
you to set up the base station on a new site
without needing to configure the settings in the
receiver.
If you have used the Autobase feature in other
Trimble receivers, Trimble recommends that you
read this chapter carefully because new functions
in this feature provide greater benefit to you.
<Rob. Comment from Alan: ìIt will also be
available in SPS880 but it operates a little
differently because the receiver has no display.
Rob Miller to advise on this please. <Please
