Antenna Configuration

Use these settings to define the antenna being used by the receiver.

Select Receiver Configuration / Antenna.

 

Antenna Type – Select the type of antenna being used with the receiver.

Antenna Serial Number – Enter the serial number of the antenna being used.

Antenna Measurement Method – Select how the antenna height is being measured. This setting is only applied at the base station in the generation of correction messages (CMR or RTCM). The height output from the receiver does not account for this offset; the Antenna Phase Center (APC) height is always given.

Antenna Height [m] – Enter the measured height of the antenna. This is typically measured from a ground marker or the mounting point of the antenna. This setting is only applied at the base station in the generation of correction messages (CMR or RTCM). The height output from the receiver does not account for this offset; the Antenna Phase Center (APC) height is always given.

If available, an image of the selected antenna is displayed so that you can confirm that you have selected the correct antenna.
