HiPerII Chapter 1 Introduction The HiPerII receiver is a multi-frequency, GPS+ receiver built to be the most advanced and compact receiver for the surveying market. The receiver is a multi-function, multi-purpose receiver intended for precision markets.
HiPerII Chapter 1 GNSS Overview Currently, the following two global navigation satellite systems ( GNSS ) offer line-of-site radio navigation and positioning, velocity, and time services on a global, all-weather scale to any user equipped with a GNSS tracking receiver on or near the Earth's surface: GPS - the Global Positioning System maintained and operated by the United States Department of Defense. For information on the status of this system, visit the US Naval Observatory website ( http://tycho.usno.
HiPerII Chapter 1 Calculating Differential Positions DGPS, or Differential GPS, is a relative positioning technique where the measurements from two or more remote receivers are combined and processed using sophisticated algorithms to calculate the receivers' relative coordinates with high accuracy.
HiPerII Chapter 1 Essential Components for Quality Surveying Achieving quality position results requires the following elements: Accuracy - The accuracy of a position primarily depends upon the satellite geometry ( Geometric Dilution of Precision, or GDOP ) and the measurement (ranging) errors. Differential positioning ( DGPS and RTK ) strongly mitigates atmospheric and orbital errors, and counteracts Selective Availability ( SA ) signals the US Department of Defense transmits with GPS signals.
HiPerII Chapter 1 An internal GPS+ antenna equipped with a low noise amplifier ( LNA ) and the receiver's radio frequency ( RF ) device are connected with a co-axial cable. The wide-band signal received is down-converted, filtered, digitized, and assigned to different channels. The receiver processor controls the process of signal tracking. Once the signal is locked in the channel, it is demodulated and necessary signal parameters ( carrier and code phases ) are measured.
HiPerII Chapter 1 Batteries The HiPerII receiver comes equipped with one detachable, re-chargeable batteries ( Figure 1-2 ) for powering the receiver. Figure 1-2. HiPerII Batteries Please use CDC68 as battery charging cradle. It takes approximately four hours to completely charge one battery, and eight hours to charge two batteries.

Blue blink - internal Bluetooth connection has not been made, as long as the module has power. Blue dark - internal Bluetooth is not being powered. Green flash - date is transmitted from the Bluetooth port. Orange flash - date is received from the Bluetooth port. Radio Status LEDs indicate status of the internal UHF radio and GSM module.
HiPerII Chapter 1 Factory reset Erase memory Disregard 10 With the receiver on, press the button for 1 0 seconds until you hear the "Factory Reset" message or sound and the top three LEDs on the battery life, satellite tracking, and memory gauges illuminate. Release the button to reset all stored parameters on the receiver to their default values. Note: This action is irreversible.
HiPerII Chapter 1 External Radio Antenna Connector The UHF and SS antennas connect to the external antenna connector under the HiPerII housing ( Figure 1-7 ). Both modem antenna types include support for a GSM modem. The modem antenna depends on the type of modem in-stalled in the receiver: UHF: Uses a BNC RF connection and comes in three versions: 410-440MHz ( p/n 30-070003-01 ) and 440-470MHz ( p/n 30-050503-01 ).
HiPerII Chapter 1 SD/MMC and SIM Card Slots The SD and SIM card slots reside under the batteries near the base of the dome. The SD card slot is located to the left of the MINTER inside the battery pocket ( Figure 1-9 ) and connects an optional SD card to the receiver board to provide memory. Once installed, the SD card usually remains inside the receiver. The data that resides on the SD card can be accessed via the serial port, or Bluetooth wireless technology.

HiPerII Chapter 1 Pre-survey Preparation Before beginning to survey with the HiPerII receiver, the follow-ing software needs to be installed and configurations need to be applied: Install receiver configuration software See "Installing Sokkia Topcon Software" on page 2-2. Optional: install SD card and/or SIM card See "Installing the Optional SD and SIM Cards" on page 2-7. Charge the batteries See "Charging the Batteries" on page 2-9.
HiPerII Chapter 1 Installing PC-CDU PC-CDU is a comprehensive Windows software product designed for controlling GPS+ receivers developed by Sokkia Topcon. PC-CDU uses the GPS Receiver Interface Language ( GRIL ) to configure various receiver settings and diagnose receiver performance. The PC-CDU software exists in two versions: a full-functionality version called PC-CDU MS and a reduced-functionality version called PC-CDU Lite. PC-CDU Lite is available for free on the Sokkia Topcon website ( www.sokkia.co.
HiPerII Chapter 1 Modem-TPS is available from the Sokkia Topcon website ( www.sokkia.co.jp ) or on the GPS+ CD. Computer requirements for Modem-TPS are: Windows98 or newer and an RS-232C port or Bluetooth wireless technology. Use Modem- TPS version 2.2p2 or newer to correctly configure the receiver. To install Modem-TPS: 1. Navigate to the location of the Modem-TPS program, and double-click the Setup.exe icon. 2. Keep the default installation location or select a new location.

HiPerII Chapter 1 Figure 2-6. Install SD Card Do not remove the card if the receiver is powered on. Damage to data may result from improper removal of the card. Once the receiver is turned on, the receiver board will detect the SD card, and it will be ready to use as needed. To install the SIM card ( Figure 2-7 ): The SIM card must support Circuit Switched Data to communicate directly between receivers. The SIM card must have GPRS or EDGE support to communicate with a GPS Network IP ad-dress.

Charging the Batteries To charge the battery, use the included charger. It takes approximately two hours to completely charge one battery, and four hours to charge two batteries. The batteries are shipped from the factory without power. Fully charge the batteries be-fore surveying.
HiPerII Chapter 1 The receiver's power button is used to switch the receiver on or off. However, the receiver will also automatically turn on if it detects activity on COM1. If you turn off the receiver while it is logging data to the memory, it will save and close any open files before turning off. The receiver does not support the use of schedules.
