5800 GPS Receiver Operation
These parameters are always reset to the factory default values
whenever the receiver is switched off.
Power Up application file
The power up application file (Power_up.cfg) is used to set the receiver
to a specific configuration any time the unit is powered up.
You can specify that the receiver is reset to defaults before the power up
settings are applied. This ensures that restarting the receiver always
resets it to factory defaults prior to applying the power up application
file.
Alternatively, you can specify that the power up settings are applied
immediately after the current application file’s settings have been
applied. Restarting the receiver results in a configuration that uses your
default settings for the options you define in the power up file, but the
current settings for all other options.
By default, there is no power up application file on the receiver. If you
want to use a power up application file, you need to create an
application file in GPS Configurator and make sure that the As auto
power up file option is selected in the File page. When you transfer this
file to the receiver, it is transferred with the name Power_up.cfg, and
becomes the new power up file.
The power up file is the only special application file that you can
overwrite or delete from the receiver.
153.2 Applying application files
An application file’s settings do not affect the receiver’s configuration
until you apply the application file. You can do this at the same time
that you save the file. Alternatively, you can save the file on the
computer or in the receiver, then open it later and apply its settings.
