Outputting local site or map projection coordinates (NEE)

If you require North, East, Elevation (NEE) output from the receiver, you must either:

  • Use the Configuration ToolBox utility (Coordinate System menu) to select a map projection or a site calibration and then create an application file (*.cfg) and load that into the receiver. You can use Configuration ToolBox utility to load the file directly if your computer is connected to the receiver, otherwise you can import the application file using the web interface (select Receiver Configuration / Application File).
  • Use a Trimble calibration file (*.dc, or *.cal) created by the Siteworks software, the SCS900 software, the Trimble Business Center software, or a Trimble utility. Upload the file using the web interface (select Receiver Configuration / Application Files. From the Operation list, select the Upload & Apply Projection and Calibration file option.)

Once the required file is loaded on the receiver, the receiver can output the map projection or site coordinates North, Easting, Elevation values. For example, the NMEA PJK message outputs NEE if a valid DC or Projection file is loaded.
