Getting Started with E91 20   2.7 Downloading Logged Data Data logging  involves the  collection of  GNSS  measurement data  over  a period  at a static point or points, and subsequent post-processing of the information to accurately compute baseline information. Data logging using receivers requires access to suitable GNSS post-processing software such as the CHC Geomatics Office (CGO) Software. The procedures of downloading logged data in the receiver are as follows:    Switch on the receiver and connect it with a computer by USB Cable. After the successful connection, a removable disk named as the Serial Number (SN) of the receiver will appear on the computer.    Double  click  the  removable  disk  and  you  will  see  the  folder  named  as  “repo”. Double click this folder, you will see 9 folders. The  “push_log” folder is used to save the log files, and the other 8 folders represent different logging session and are used for store static data.    Double click the folder that you have configured to store the static data, you will see the folder(s) created by the E91 system automatically and named by the date which is decide by GPS time when you start to log data.    Select the destination folder and double click it, and then two folders named as different data format (hcn and rinex) will be displayed.    Select the data format that you has configured to save the static data, you will find the static raw data.
Getting Started with E91 21   Tip  –  For  hcn  files,  the  name  of  the  file  is  represented  as  XXXXXXDDDNN,  where XXXXXX is the SN of the receiver, DDD is day of year, and NN is the recording session.        WARNING  –  The  static  data  will  be  saved  in  the  first  logging  session,  the “record_1” folder, by default. Old files will be deleted if the storage space is full. If you configure not to auto delete old files when the memory is low, the receiver will stop data logging.
Base Station Setup and Operation 22  3 Base Station Setup and Operation Real-Time  Kinematic  (RTK)  operation  provides  centimeter-level  precision  by eliminating errors that are present in the GNSS system. For all RTK operations, you require  both  a  rover  receiver  and  a  source  of  corrections  from  a  base  station  or network of base stations. A base station consists of a receiver that is placed at a known point. The receiver tracks the same satellites that are being tracked by the rover receiver simultaneously. Errors in  the  GNSS  system  are  monitored  at  the  base  station,  and  a  series  of  position corrections are computed. The messages are sent through a radio link to the rover receiver, where they are used to correct the real time positions of the rover.   This  chapter  provides  the  information  to  help  you  identify  good  setup  locations, outlines  basic  precautions  that  you  need  to  take  to  protect  the  equipment,  and describes  the  conventional  process  to  set  up  the  base  station  and  the  configuring procedure that required for transmitting correction data.   3.1 Base Station Setup Guidelines For good performance, the following base station setup guidelines are recommended:   • Place the GNSS receiver in a location on the worksite where equal range in all directions provides full coverage of the site.   • Place the GNSS antenna in a location that has a clear line of sight to the sky in all directions. Do not place the antenna near vertical obstructions such as buildings, deep cuttings, site vehicles, towers, or tree canopy.   • The GNSS antenna must have a dear line of sight to the sky at all times during operation. • Place the GNSS and radio antennas as high as practical. This minimizes multipath from the surrounding area, and enables the radio to broadcast to the maximum distance. • Choose the most appropriate radio antenna for the size of the worksite. The higher the gain on the antenna, the longer the range.   • Make sure that the GNSS receiver does not lose power. To operate continuously for more than a few hours without loss of power at the base station, provide external power. When you use an external power supply, the integrated battery provides a backup power supply, enabling you to maintain continuous operation through a mains power failure.   • Do not locate a GNSS receiver, GNSS antenna, or radio antenna within 400 meters (about 1,300 feet) of transmitters, such as a power radar or cellular
Base Station Setup and Operation 23  communications tower.   • Do not set up the base station close to the sources of electromagnetic interference, include alternators and generators, electric motors, equipment with DC-to-AC converters, etc.   • Do not operate the receiver outside the specified operating temperature range -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F).   • Take reasonable care to keep the GNSS receiver equipment dry, which could prolong their life and reduce the effects of corrosion on ports and connectors.   3.2 Outputting Corrections Using Internal Radio Modem 3.2.1 Base Station Setup   1. Connect  the  radio  antenna  onto  E91  receiver.  Screw  the  receiver  onto extension pole.   2. Screw the extension pole with auxiliary H.I. tool onto tribrach adaptor.   3. Mount the tribrach onto the tripod.   4. Insert the tribrach adaptor into the tribrach.   5. Level and plumb the receiver over the known (control) point. 6. Measure the height of the base station GNSS antenna by measuring the slant height from the known (control) point to the end of auxiliary H.I. tool.    Note –After entered the vertical height from the known (control) point to the bottom of receiver that you calculated by adding the height of the extension pole to the height from the known (control) point to the auxiliary H.I. tool, LandStar 7 will calculate the height to the Antenna Phase Center (APC) automatically.    7. If required, connect the receiver to an external 12 V power supply.    3.3 Outputting Corrections Using External Radio For base receiver part:   1. Screw the E91 receiver onto extension pole.   2. Screw the extension pole with auxiliary H.I. tool onto tribrach adaptor.   3. Mount the tribrach onto the tripod.   4. Insert the tribrach adaptor into the tribrach.

For connection between the receiver part and external radio part:   16. Connect Datalink Antenna to the Datalink Antenna Slot of DL6 Datalink via 3 meter Cable for Datalink Antenna.   17. Connect the base receiver with DL6 Datalink via GPS to Datalink Cable. 18. Connect the car battery with DL6 Datalink via Datalink External Power Cable.        CAUTION – The Datalink Antenna must be connected to the Datalink before the Datalink is powered on; otherwise, the Datalink can be damaged.
Rover Station Setup And Operation 25  4 Rover Station Setup And Operation Real-Time  Kinematic  (RTK)  operation  provides  centimeter-level  precision  by eliminating errors that are present in the GNSS system. For all RTK operations, you require  both  a  rover  receiver  and  a  source  of  corrections  from  a  base  station  or network of base stations.   The second part of the RTK GNSS system is the rover receiver. The rover receiver is moved between the points that require measurement or stakeout. The rover receiver is  connected  to  a  base  station  or  to  a  source  of  RTK  corrections  such  as  a  CORS (Continuous Operational Reference System) or the CHC APIS service. The connection is provided by: • an integrated radio • an integrated cellular modem • a cellular modem in the controller This  chapter  provides  the  information  to  help  you  identify  good  setup  locations, describes  the  conventional process to set  up  the  rover station  and  the configuring procedure that required for receiving correction data.   4.1 Rover Station Setup Guidelines For good rover operation, observe the following setup guidelines: • Place the GNSS antenna in a location that has a clear line of sight to the sky in all  directions.  Do  not  place  the  antenna  near  vertical  obstructions  such  as buildings, deep cuttings, site vehicles, towers, or tree canopy. GNSS rovers and the base station receive the same satellite signals from the same satellites. The system needs five common satellites to provide RTK positioning.        WARNING – Take care not to touch overhead power lines with the CHC E91 GNSS  receiver  or  the  range  pole  when  moving  the  equipment  into  position. Touching overhead power lines may cause electrocution, leading to serious injury.   • GNSS  satellites  are  constantly  moving.  Because  you  cannot  measure  at  a specific location now does not mean that you will not be able to measure there later, when satellite coverage at the location improves.   • To  get  a  fixed  position  solution  with  centimeter  precision,  initialize the  RTK rover receiver. For initialization to take place, the receiver must track at least five  satellites  that  the  base  station  is  also  tracking.  In  a  dual-satellite constellation  operation,  for  example,  GPS  and  GLONASS,  the  receiver  must
Rover Station Setup And Operation 26  track at least six satellites.   • To continue to survey at centimeter precisions, the  rover must continuously track at least four satellites that the base station is also tracking. The radio link between the base and rover receivers must also be maintained. • Loss of the satellite signals will result in a loss of centimeter position precision.   4.2 Rover Station Setup 1. If required, connect the radio antenna onto E91 receiver.   2. Screw the receiver on top of the range pole.   3. Fix the controller bracket on the range pole.   4. Fit the controller in the controller bracket.   5. Level and plumb the receiver over the target measuring point.
