I'm looking to use my R10 receiver with my PinPointR Ground Penetrating Radar unit, however I'd also like to share that GNSS receiver connection with my data collector running Survey Pro, mainly so that I can stake to a line and roll my GPR cart along that alignment. I know it has something to do with utilizing the NMEA output streams, but I'm lost after that and don't know where to find the answers. Has anyone tried this, or can you point me in the right direction?

If you already have the unit working with the data collector, all you need to to is enable the NMEA outputs:

Configuration will depend upon the equipment you are streaming it to - you'll need to look at your GPR documentation to figure out how to set up the NMEA stream.
