2. Web User Interface
User can connect to the receiver by WIFI connection using a PC, smartphone or tablet.
The hotspot name is the device’s serial number, it can be found under the bottom of
the device. Open web browser and input the IP address “192.168.10.1”. The default
user name is “admin”, password is “password”. From the website, user can manage
working status, change working mode, configure basic settings, download raw data,
update firmware and register device.
2.1 Position
View basic position information, satellite number, PDOP and time. In static mode, can
start and stop recording here.

5
2.2 Satellites
View satellite list and satellite map, set cut-off angle.
2.3 Information
View receiver information: firmware version, GNSS board, and network module.
2.4 Working Mode
Configure working mode: base, rover or static.

6
2.5 Satellite Setting
Configure the satellites to be used.
2.6 Device Configuration
Configure receiver settings: User can set the time zone. Sensor means MEMS sensor
data output. Also, the 5-pin port baud rate is changeable. Speaker “Smart voice
broadcast” can be disabled. Base Alert is enabled, the rover will receive message
when base is moved. When a SIM card is inserted and “WiFi share network” is enabled,
a device such as a laptop or tablet can browse the internet when connected to
device’s hotspot by using the SIM card’s data.
2.7 NMEA Message
Configure NMEA data output through Bluetooth or 5-pin port.

7
2.8 View Logs
The log files can be used to diagnose issues. Click “download” to download the files.
2.9 Raw Data
Download raw data or convert data to RINEX format. Users can use the check box,
then click “Package” to download multiple files.
2.10 Backup Data
The points collected in SurPad4.0 software can be backed up in receiver storage
automatically to avoid data loss. Can restore the data to the SurPad4.0 software.

8
2.11 Management
User can update the receiver and GNSS firmware as well as register the device, format
internal disk, factory reset, restart device. To update the firmware, click “Choose File”
to import the firmware, then click “Upload File” to start updating.
3. Basic Operation
This part shows user some basic operations to start working with the E800.
3.1 Insert SIM card
E800 supports network working mode. Open the cover and insert Micro SIM card.
3.2 Charge the battery
E800 is equipped with a Type-C charger which supports a maximum of 45W PD quick
charge. The capacity is 13600mAh, Fully charging the battery takes 8 hours typically.
The battery indicator is red when charging, will turn green when fully charged.

9
3.3 Attach radio antenna
A antenna is required in radio working mode.
3.4 Measure antenna height
In order to get correct elevation value, we need to know the correct phase center
height of the receiver. However, it is almost impossible to measure the phase center
directly. Normally, the software will read the receiver antenna offset parameters.
Once user input the measurement height, software will calculate the phase center
height automatically. Typically, there are two ways to measure the height:
A: Slant height (to measurement line)
Centering and leveling the tripod on known point, then measure slant height from
the ground point to the arrow at the side of the receiver.
B: Pole height (straight height to device bottom)
Read the straight pole height
A: Slant height Measurement Line B: Pole height

10
3.5 Tilt Survey
E800 is equipped with MEMS sensor which supports tilt survey in SurPad4.0 software.
The calibration is very simple.
To calibrate the MEMS sensor, receiver must be in Fixed solution. In SurPad4.0
software, connect device and click “Device” -> “Device Settings”, open “Pole Tilt
Correction” function. Then, go to “Survey” -> “Point Survey” page. The software will
guide user to calibrate the sensor.
Input the correct pole height
Draw circle on the ground using the pole
Shake the pole back and forth for around 5-10 seconds
Rotate the pole 90°and repeat the lase step until it shows “Ready”

11
4. Internal Radio
E800 is equipped with 5-watt internal radio. Users can select the transmission power
of 2W (Low) or 5W (High). There are 8 default channel frequencies and the frequency
of the channel “8” is adjustable. With new firmware update, many of the main survey
industry protocols are supported.
