Trimble R6 GPS and R8 GNSS Receiver Operation
• Port 2 of the receiver supports full RS-232 protocol, and should function
properly with most cellular phone cables. Some cellular units may require
custom cabling.
Alternatively, the receiver also supports a cable-free Bluetooth connection with
Bluetoot-enabled cell phones.
For more information on using an external cellular modem as a data link, refer to the
Trimble Survey Controller User Guide.
To connect an external radio modem to a receiver, you need the following:
• A Trimble R6 GPS/R8 GNSS receiver.
• An external radio capable of receiving and decoding Trimble data packets.
• Serial cable for either Port 1 or Port 2 of the receiver, as supplied by the radio
manufacturer.
• Radio mount for the range pole.
