Open manualFrequently Answers and Questions
Where is the Antenna Reference Point (ARP) located on the G2100?
The ARP is the bottom of the bolt on the underside of the G2100.
Does the G2100 L1 vertical offset need to be added to the measured height to the bolt?
No. Data collection software adds the vertical offset automatically when the appropriate antenna type is selected.
How do I know which battery I can remove without having operations interrupted?
Use the battery status indicator in data collection software to confirm which battery is “in use” before hot-swapping batteries.
How do I configure a unit back to the PENTAX factory defaults?
Located on the PENTAX CD there is a text file called “G2100_Default_Config.txt” Follow the instruction to upload that file into the G2100 in this manual.
What are the correct specifications for a GSM SIM card in order for it to operate with the G2100?
There are three key items that must be specified to get the correct GSM SIM card and service from your cellular service provider; GSM SIM card (not UMTS), Data service only, No IMEI number (i.e. no associated hardware/handset)
Why am I not receiving GLONASS corrections?
You must first verify that the base station transmits GLONASS corrections. The G2100 first utilizes GPS satellites to get to RTK Fixed status. Then if more than 2 acceptable GLONASS satellites are available, RTK Fixed GPS+GLO RTK status is achieved.
Why is my radio not receiving RTK corrections?
Check Base Station Configuration. Make sure that Base Station receiver is set up and using more than 5 common Satellites. Check Rover Configuration; make sure that it is configured to use the correct RTK format corrections. Both Base Station and Rover must use the same UHF Radio Channel and same correction format.
How do I know which message type to select RTCM V2.3, RTCM V3.0, CMR, or CMR+?
Base stations transmit different messages types. It is important to confirm what message type(s) the base is transmitting so the Rover can be set accordingly.
How can I verify the Windows Mobile® version my hand held device is operating on?
As of Dec. 2012, TIAsahi is delivering Getac PS535F with Windows Mobile® version 6.1 classic. To confirm this version, in the main view of the controller, select the Start Menu, next click Settings Menu, then select the System tab, lastly select the About icon which will display the Windows Mobile® version.
I can’t connect to the G2100 via Bluetooth®, why not?
Make sure that the serial cable (COM1) is disconnected. The serial cable takes precedence over Bluetooth® connectivity, and because of this Bluetooth® is unable to connect when the cable is attached. Also verify the Bluetooth® is ON/Visible on the controller. Lastly, uploading the PENTAX default script will reset all COM ports and often fixes Bluetooth® connectivity.
I noticed that the units get extremely hot at the top, what effect might this have on any operations?
The G2100 is designed to operate reliably from -20 to +65 °C. Like most manufacturers, we test beyond that limit to ensure we can operate at the published extremes.
I cannot connect using the GSM modem, why not?
Be sure that you are selecting the G2100 model in your data collection software. Selecting the wrong model version will cause communication issues with the GSM modem.
