Turn on the device
It is suggested to charge the device for the first time before using it.
Turn on the RTK host and controller Press the “APP” button in the controller
to start the measurement software. The first time you use it, a privacy
agreement will pop up. accept it and use it.
Connecting Instruments
Click the device icon button in the upper right corner of the app to enter the
device connection interface. In the device connection interface, you can
choose to connect the device after using Wi-Fi search, as in Figure 1.
Note: Qianxun SI survey RTK products start with
“QX” by default, such as QX21000034
Activation
Host Registration
When you use the device for the first time, you need to use the registration
code to open the authorization to use the device. Please apply for the
registration code from the distributor who purchased the device.
Registration method: App upper right corner device icon → click [Device] in
the device information after the [Regis] button can be entered, prompt.
Service Activation
If you have purchased a star-based service, you need to use the authorization
code to open it in order to achieve high-precision positioning operation
without network on a single device.
In the device information, you can click the [Regis] button after [Xyster] to
activate the star-based service, please consult the manufacturer’s technical
staff for service coverage.
Star-based service needs to update the key file once every six months, and you
can select the locally imported key file by [Select file].
New Project
When you enter the App, Qianxun SI has automatically created a project for
you. The default project name is controller system time, the coordinate system
is WGS84, the projection is horizontal axis Makaton.
If necessary, you can go to the left menu bar to create a new project or
modify the project information and the required coordinate system parameters,
as in Figure-2. Data Import
In the point library, you can select the required data format and file to
import data, as shown in Figure 3-6.
Work Mode Configuration
The first time you turn on the machine, it will automatically enable “Radio”,
you can directly carry out survey operations.
If there is no network on site or you have other needs, you can configure as
follows: Enter the device configuration interface through the left menu bar →
[Device Config] You can configure rover station, base station and static
station as required.
Create Rover Station Mode
Click the [Create] button, [Type] select [Rover], and choose the data chain
mode.
PAD Network: Insert SIM card in PAD and connect Qianxun SI high-precision
positioning service for measurement operation. This mode is applicable to the
scene with network.
Radio: Some models have radio function, at this time you need another RTK
to be the Base station and broadcast differential data to the mobile station
via radio for measurement operation. This mode is suitable for all outdoor
work scenarios, such as Figure-7. Star-based: Some models are equipped
with star-based function. Star-based service does not depend on network and
does not need to set up a reference station, and can achieve centimeter-level
positioning by a single machine. The satellite-based service needs to be
opened according to the area, and high-precision operation can be realized
within the coverage of the satellite-based, please consult customer service or
authorized distributors for details.
Base Station: some models have built-in transmitting radio/external radio
function, which can be matched with mobile station to form radio 1+1
operation. Create Base Station Mode
Some models have base station function. Click [Create] button, [Type] select
[Base], configure radio related parameters and click OK to finish the
configuration. If there is a known point, you can select [Known Point] mode,
enter the ground point coordinates and antenna slope height to start, as in
Figure-8. Create Static Station Mode
Static station mode is used for control network deployment and control point
encryption.
Click the [Create] button, select [Static] for [Type], and configure the
relevant parameters to complete the configuration. The default sample interval
is 10s and the default file format is RI N EX3.02, as shown in Figure- 9.
Survey
Menu bar on the left → [Survey], the main interface switches to point
measurement mode.
In the point measurement mode, you can select the first configuration button
in the right toolbar of the interface to configure the required measurement
parameters, as shown in Figure-10.
In the main interface, you can switch the type of measurement points ( Control
Point, Continuous Point, Rapid Point, Topographic Point, Eccentric Point),
enter the required number of observation points and other parameters, and then
click [Start survey] to collect the required type of points, as shown in
Figure-11.
Parameter Calculation
Point Correction
The first time you go to a survey area, you need to do point correction if you
want the measured point to match the known point coordinates. If you are using
Qianxun SI network operation mode and your project coordinates match the
CGCS2000 coordinates broad-casted by Qianxun SI, you can skip this step.
The left menu bar → [CRS] → [Site Calib], you can enter the point correction
parameter calculation interface, as in Figure-12.
Select the plane coordinates of known points in N pairs of survey area and the
latitude and longitude coordinates under the ellipsoid corresponding to known
points, click [Calculate] to solve the plane correction and elevation fitting
parameters, and click [Apply] to apply the calculation results to the current
project coordinate system parameters and update all the measurement results,
as in Figure-13. Station Shift
Site panning is required when a base station is moved or a reboot of a base
station started at an unknown point. If you are using Qianxun SI Find CM
service, you can skip this step, and you can directly turn on the power to
measure every day.
Menu bar on the left → [CRS] → [Station Shift], you can enter the site shift
selection interface. Select the coordinates of known points in the measurement
area and the coordinates of latitude and longitude of the corresponding
measurement points to find out the translation amount, and click [OK] to apply
the current translation parameters to the corresponding base station of the
currently selected measurement point and update all the mobile stations
measured under the base station synchronously, as in Figure 14.
Data Export
The left menu bar → [Data] → [Export] to export the current measurement
results.
In the point library, select the desired point location, export file type, and
file format to export. The exported data is stored in the Survey
Mate/RTK/project name/report directory by default and you can choose the
export directory by yourself, as in Figure-15.
Host Web
When you work separately from your teammates and need to change the base
station configuration without PAD, you can use the “RTK Web” application in
PAD system or cell phone webpage to enter the 1.1.1.1 host webpage interface
to configure the equipment. Some models of cell phones need to turn off the 4G
network and use Wi-Fi to connect to the receiver, as shown in
Figure-16. Update
The RTK product suite is available for free lifetime firmware/software
upgrades to support new features and fix bugs. upgrades include RTK host
firmware, PAD system, and App software. Upgrade method. You can contact our
technical support staff to obtain the latest version of the installation
package, using USB offline upgrade. When upgrading, connect the RTK host
computer through the standard Type -C cable, put the upgrade installation
package into the RTK memory, APP upgrade package into the PAD memory, restart
the receiver / click the APP installation package in the PAD to upgrade.
Caution
Charging: The battery holder charge is used in an environment of 0-40°C.
It is recommended to be used in a well-ventilated, non-direct sunlight
environment.
Maintenance: The lithium battery should be charged with 50%-8036 of power
for a long time without use, and removed from the instrument and stored in a
dry and cool environment, and charged once every three months to avoid
irreversible capacity loss.
