Tracking

Select Receiver Configuration / Tracking.

Elevation Mask – Enter the elevation, in degrees, below which the receiver will not track satellites.

EVEREST™ – Trimble proprietary multipath mitigation algorithm. Enabled by default.

EVEREST Plus™ – Trimble proprietary multipath mitigation algorithm. Enabled by default.

Clock Steering – When enabled, the receiver clock is steered to GPS system time rather than periodically introducing 1 ms steps and constraining the clock to ± 0.5 ms. Enabled by default.

List of satellites – Shows a list of satellite signals and if they are enabled or disabled.

Type	Signal	Description
GPS	L1 - C/A	The receiver will track the C/A code of the GPS L1 band. The Alloy receiver now supports the new GPS Block IIIA L1C signal. Please note that GPS III satellites are still launching and are not fully operational. The L1C signal frequency is 1575.42 MHz. The Alloy receiver requires a new option code to track the L1C signal. To obtain an upgrade code for the L1C signal, please contact Trimble Support (RTNS_Support@trimble.com) with the serial numbers of the receivers.
	L2	Set which information of the L2 signal the receiver is to observe: CL or CM + CL.
	L2 – Legacy	The receiver will track the full cycle carrier phase of the L2 signal. CS code will not be tracked even if available.
	L2CS with Legacy fallback	The receiver will track the CS code on the GPS L2 band if available. If CS code is not available, the receiver will track full cycle carrier phase in Legacy mode.
	L2CS with Legacy	The receiver will track both CS and Legacy code simultaneously.
	L2 – CS	The receiver will track the CS code on the GPS L2 band if available. If CS code is not available, the receiver tracks full cycle carrier phase in Legacy mode.
	L2CS – CM/CL	The receiver will track both the CM and CL code broadcast by the satellite simultaneously. Trimble recommends that you use this setting.
	L2CS – CL	The receiver will track only the CL code broadcast by the satellite.
	L5	If L5 is installed, this menu item is displayed. If selected, it allows tracking of the GPS L5 band. Set which code the receiver is to track: L5 – Q: The receiver will track only the Q code broadcast by the satellite. L5 – I + Q: The receiver will track both the I and Q code broadcast by the satellite simultaneously. Trimble recommends that you use this setting.
SBAS	L1 - C/A	Enable or disable the tracking of the L1 C/A signal transmitted from SBAS satellites such as WAAS.
SBAS	L5	Enable or disable the tracking of the L5 C/A signal transmitted from SBAS satellites such as WAAS.
GLONASS	L1 - C/A	The receiver will track the C/A code of the GLONASS L1 band.
	L1P	The receiver will track the P code of the GLONASS L1 band.
	L2P	The receiver will track the P code of the GLONASS L2 band. L2-P is the recommended setting.
	L2 - C/A	The receiver will track the C/A code of the GLONASS L2 band.
	L3	The receiver will track the GLONASS L3 band. If you enable GLONASS L3, select either the Data + Pilot or Pilot option. Data: Carries the navigation message. Pilot: GNSS channels transmit PRN codes without navigation data (without data modulation) . Data+Pilot: Uses a combination of both data and pilot codes.
Galileo	E1	The receiver will track the Galileo E1 band.
	E5-A	The receiver will track the Galileo E5a band.
	E5-B	The receiver will track the Galileo E5b band.
	E5-AltBOC	The receiver will track the Galileo E5-AltBOC modulation.
	E6	The receiver will track the Galileo E6 band.
BeiDou	B1	The receiver will track the BeiDou B1 band.
	B1C	The receiver will track the BeiDou B1C band. The Alloy receiver can track the new signals that are part of the third-generation of Beidou satellites: B1C - 1575.42 MHz. B2A - 1176.45 MHz. B2B - 1207 MHz. Not currently supported in the Pivot software. The receiver includes an updated pseudorange to extend the tracking from 37 to 63 BeiDou satellites with an extended almanac. The Beidou tracking option is required for this improvement. If you already have the Beidou upgrade for the Alloy receiver, please contact support (RTNS_Support@trimble.com) to get a new key to track the B1C; B2A is already supported.
	B2	The receiver will track the BeiDou B2 band.
	B2a	The receiver will track the BeiDou B2a band.
	B2b	The receiver will track the BeiDou B2b band.
	B3	The receiver will track the BeiDou B3 band.
QZSS	L1-C/A	The receiver will track the L1-C/A signal of the QZSS satellites.
	L1S	The receiver will track the L1-SAIF signal of the QZSS satellites. This signal is only of use for SBAS operation when in the Japan territory.
	L1C	The receiver will track the L1C signal of the QZSS satellites.
	L2C	The receiver will track the L2C signal of the QZSS satellites.
	L5	The receiver will track the L5 signal of the QZSS satellites.
	L6	The receiver will track the L6 (LEX) signal of the QZSS satellites.
NavIC	L5-C/A	The receiver will track the L5-C/A signal of the NAVIC satellite. The default setting is Disabled.
NavIC	S1-C/A	Enable or disable the tracking of the NavIC S1-C/A signal by the receiver. The default setting is Disabled.
