5800 GPS Receiver Operation
This chapter introduces the Trimble® 5800 GPS receiver, which is
designed for GPS surveying applications. The 5800 receiver
incorporates a GPS antenna, receiver, internal radio, and battery in a
rugged light-weight unit that is ideally suited as an all-on-the-pole RTK
rover. Three LEDs allow you to monitor the satellite tracking, radio
reception, data logging status, and power. Bluetooth®
wireless
technology provides cable-free communications between receiver and
controller. The 5800 receiver provides 24 total channels of L1/L2
satellite tracking, and supports logging of raw GPS observables to the
handheld controller for post-processed applications.
The 5800 receiver is available as a standalone rover or as part of the
GPS Total Station® 5800 system, offering maximum versatility in the
system configuration to meet your specific requirements.
