Ashtech Z-Xtreme RTK / TDS Ranger - Survey Pro CE
Version 3.2.1 - Sales Support Document
RTK Demo – TDS Localization Method
The RTK Base will occupy an unknown control point, with assumed coordinates of
N-5000m, E-5000m and Elevation-500m. Perform a TDS GET to obtain the autonomous
WGS84 Latitude, Longitude and Ellipsoid Height for the RTK Base station. Perform
Single-Point Localization at the RTK Base Station. The resulting Scale Factor will equal
1.00000000 and the Rotation Angle will equal 0°00’ 00”.
You can demonstrate the capability of the RTK system from this single local control
point. You will be able RTK survey at relatively close distances to the RTK Base station.
The further the distance from the RTK Base station, (Single Point Localization) the
greater the distortions.

Survey Pro icon, or from the Start | Programs | Survey Pro menu…
