Icon Description 
1:8 6-8 When a position status icon is displayed, the number of satel- 
D-8 В=2 lites currently used for the position computation are shown. 

If no position is currently available but satellites are being 

tracked then the L1 and L2 values (GPS only) or the G and R 

values (GPS & GLONASS) show how many satellites are 

being tracked. 

Cg^ Тһе number of contributing satellites can differ from 
the number of visible satellites. This may be either 
because satellites cannot be viewed or the 
observations to these satellites are considered to be 
too noisy to be used in the position solution.

save having to type in the ID for each object. They are useful when many points are

21.1 Overview 





Description A device is the hardware which is connected to a chosen port of GPS1200. Devices 

are used to transmit and receive real-time data and to communicate with the 
receiver. 
Before using any device it is necessary to configure the interface with which it will be 
used. Some devices may be used with different interfaces for different applications. 
For example, a radio can be used to receive real-time reference data but a second 
radio could also be used to simultaneously output NMEA messages.

For radios the channels on which the radio broadcasts can be changed. Changing 
channels changes the frequency at which the radio operates. 





Refer to "22.1 Accessing Config... Mnterfaces... - Controlling Devices" to access 
CONFIGURE Radio Channel. 





Channel changing may contravene radio broadcasting regulations in certain coun- 
tries. Before operating with radios, check the regulations in force in the working area. 





If channel changing is to be used, when configuring the reference real-time interface, 
set «Ref Stn ID:» in CONFIGURE Additional Reference Options, General page 
to a different ID for each reference site. By doing so, the rover can recognise if the 
incoming real-time data after channel changing is being received from a different 
reference station or if the original reference station is using a new frequency. In the 
first case, the ambiguities are recomputed.
