Introduction
Creating a GPS GSM Network Rover Profile
This guide describes how to create a GPS GSM network rover profile for your Pentax SMT888-3G Rev 2 GNSS receiver.
Although this guide describes using a SMT888-3G Rev 2 GPS receiver, the procedure in this guide can also be followed for connecting to other Pentax receivers such as the SMT888-3G and
G3100-R1.
Important Note
: You only need to create a particular profile once.
After that Pentax FieldGenius will preserve and use this alreadycreated profile. You are also welcome to create more profiles such as for a UHF radio GPS profile, but in this guide we explain how to create a GSM Network GPS profile.
Current
Version
This guide was written using Pentax FieldGenius Version 5.0.6.2 installed on a Getac PS236 with Windows Mobile 6.1 installed. If you are using a different version, your screens may look differently than what is displayed in this guide.
Before you begin
Have your Pentax SMT888-3G Rev 2, data collector with Pentax
FieldGenius installed, and a SIM card close by. You will need them to complete this guide.

SIM Card
Your Pentax SMT888-3G has a slot to insert a SIM card into it. You will need this card to access the Internet. Insert your SIM card into your SMT888-3G, power on the receiver and your data collector. Then continue to the following page.

Library will affect only the project library, not the template library.
Use the Feature List field to select a feature list that you want to use with the project, for collecting GIS point attributes.
Display
The Raw Data File field indicates the name of the raw file that is going to be recorded. You can select a different one by pressing the button and either creating a new raw file or choosing an existing one to open.
The Modify Project Information button will take you directly to the
Project Information screen. There you can enter notes about the project.
Leave these fields as they are.

Instrument profiles are used to save your particular instrument’s settings so that you don’t have to remember them or have to set them each time you create a new project or select an instrument to use.
In this example, we will call it
Pentax SMT888-3G GSM Rover.
Press the Save button.

Question
: How do I know which
SMT888-3G receiver I am using?
Answer
:
Locate the receiver;’s serial number.
If the serial number has an 810 in it, that is the number looks like:
SMT810XXX then use the
SMT888-3G model.
If the Serial number has an 811 in it, that is the number looks like:
SMT811XXX then use the
SMT888-3G Rev 2
model.
Ensure that the Make field has Pentax selected.
Ensure that the Model field has SMT888-3G Rev 2 selected.
Ensure that the Port field is set to Bluetooth.
Press the Bluetooth Search button.
This takes us to the Select Bluetooth
Device screen.
Display
Note: Although we are using
Bluetooth to communicate between our data collector and receiver, you could also use a serial cable.
Typically COM1 is the port to select when using a cable. But in this example, we will use
Bluetooth.

Network vs.
NTRIP
In the Source Type field, you have a choice of NTRIP or Network.
[Note: You must tap on the field to activate the context menu to see the choices.]

Action
In the Link Configure screen:
It is not necessary to select a data format in this screen because Pentax
FieldGenius will always use whatever format selected from the
Mountpoint.
Press the Connect button.
Once Pentax FieldGenius has connected with your Network GPS data service, you will be taken to the
NTRIP Caster Options screen.
In the NTRIP Caster Options screen:
Since this is the first time we have connected to this service, we are only presented with a Request
Sourcetable button. If we had done this before then the last mountpoint that we had selected would also be available in this list.
Tap on the Request
Sourcetable button.
This takes us to the NTRIP
Sourcetable screen.

Note
: Don’t be alarmed if your mountpoint list does not match the screen on the right. Your provider may offer different services.
Select the mount point you wish to use by tapping on it.
In this example we are selecting the RTCM 3.0 RTK mountpoint.
Press the Select button.
You are then taken to the NTRIP

Correct
Antenna
It is wise to ensure that you have the correct antenna height entered and proper antenna model selected before measuring with GPS.
Step
25
Action
In the MapView screen:
In this example we will enter a height of 2 metres since we are using a fixed 2-metre pole.
Tap on the Instrument
Display
26
Settings button.
This takes us to the Instrument
Settings screen.
In the Instrument Settings screen:
Tap on the Antenna Height button.
This takes us to the Antenna Height dialog.

Step
27
Action
In the Antenna Height dialog:
Notice in the Model field you have three choices SMT888-3G (1),
SMT888-3G (2), and User Defined.
In this example we selected
SMT888-3G (1) because we intend on mounting our SMT888-3G to a rover pole.
How did I know that SMT888-3G
(1) is for the pole?
If you look at the Measure Point field the text informs us that we are measuring to the bottom of the antenna mount so that must mean we are using a rover pole. If this field said Bottom of grey cap then we would know that this is for a tripod setup (i.e. for the reference).
Select the antenna you wish to use in the Model field.
Enter the height of instrument in the Measured
Height field. In this example we are using a fixed
2-metre pole.
Press the Close button when finished.
You are now taken to the MapView screen.

Congratulations
You have successfully created a Pentax GPS GSM rover profile.
You then made a connection to your GPS receiver via Bluetooth.
From there you connected to your GPS network correction provider and started receiving network data.
You then entered the correct antenna height and selected the correct antenna model and are ready to start measuring.
Remember
, Pentax FieldGenius will preserve these settings in your instrument profile. You only have to create this profile once. In other words, you don’t have to follow these steps each and every time you want to survey using the GPS receiver and the Internet.
This guide will work with SMT888-3G and G3100-R1 receivers too.
