5800 GPS Receiver Operation
153.1 Special application files
The 5800 receiver has three special application files, which control
important aspects of the receiver’s configuration.
Default application file
The default application file (Default.cfg) contains the original receiver
configuration, and cannot be changed. This file configures the receiver
after it is reset. You can reset the receiver by holding down
[P] for at least
15 seconds, or by using the reset option in GPS Configurator.
For more information on the default receiver settings, see Default
Settings, page 143.
Although you cannot change or delete the default application file, you
can use a power up application file to override any or all of the default
settings.
Current application file
The current application file (Current.cfg) reflects the current receiver
configuration. Whenever you change the receiver’s configuration,
either in real time or by applying an application file, the current file
changes to match the new configuration.
You cannot delete the current file or change it directly, but every
change to the receiver’s current configuration is applied to the current
file as well.
When you switch off the receiver then turn it on again, all the settings
from the current application file are applied, so you do not lose any
changes that you have made. The only exceptions are the following
logging parameters:
• Logging rate
• Position rate
• Elevation mask
