2 Receiver settings
2.1. Meaning of signal icons
The three signal icons in the upper left corner of the software interface are gray and not zero,
indicating that the current RTK signal is normal.
Green lamp: Signal reception status of the base station. It flashes once a second when the
reception is good.
Blue lamp: Indicates the tracking satellites number, flashing N times in each round indicates
the tracking satellites number.
Red lamp: The red light is always on when the PA-3 is normally powered.
A: The tracking satellites number;
B: X/Y. X refers to the current differential delay and Y refers to the current types of base station.
(NET represents network base station mode and number represents radio base station and

the value is current channel)
Differential delay and radio mode icons. For example, the current status is 2/4, 2 means the
current differential delay is 2 seconds, 4 is the built-in radio channel 4 (the number will display
NET after slash
C: The current calculation accuracy error. The signal is normal when the icons are grey.
2.2 Multi-network mode (using a network base station)
Step 1: Click the red frame area in the figure below to enter the receiver setting interface.
[Pre-instruction for using network (fixed) base stations (required)]
Using the network base station will cost data traffic. The user needs at least one SIM card
(two in dual-network mode), and one SIM card can be inserted into the controller and the
other can be inserted into the display. Please make sure the SIM card has sufficient data
flow and the signal is stable.
Step 1: Click [ ] behind the operating mode to select the Muti-Network mode.
