Set base location, GPS-RTK2 Item #15136

GPS/GNSS Development Boards

When using the rtk2 board as a base with known antenna coordinates, is it possible to set it to those coordinates; and if so, how?

I’m concerned that if I rely on the self survey each time I turn the base on, and it doesn’t come up with the exact same coordinates as the last time even though it’s in the exact same spot, my rover will then be off by that amount.

I haven’t bought these yet. I was hoping to figure this out ahead of time to make sure they will work for me.

No, the GPS will need to find it’s location on it’s own. If you have a current almanac, you may be able to send that to the GPS to speed up the time to first fix though.
