Trimble 4700 instrument set up

Figure 5: Schematic diagram of station setup. The receiver is operated by a PC computer and the URS software by Trimble. The receiver gathers data from the antenna and sends them to the PC. The URS software does not allow the data to be stored in the memory of the receiver. The raw data are translated into RINEX format and stored in a folder on the PC. Once every 24 hours the RINEX files are collected from the PC by the IMO via a modem.
