OK, a couple of questions which seemingly should be pretty straight forward, but I cannot seem to figure out. Maybe I am overlooking something very simple in FAST Survey, but alas I have yet to nail these two down.
First I would like to experiment with the elevation mask when setting up my SP80 base and rovers, in my previous version of FAST Survey while using ProMark-3s this was very simple and was found under the base or rover settings under the "equipment" tab. However; in Version 4.2 I see no option for setting an elevation mask when configuring the base or rover receivers. Therefore, to set an elevation mask do I need to perform the configuration using some form of a $PASH command?
My second question relates to data update rate. I was under the impression, and have the documentation in my hands the SP80 could operate with an update rate up to 20Hz. However when I am storing points, the receiver is most defiantly operating a 1Hz. Again, I am just attempting to locate the magical spot to modify some of the configuration settings (update rate and elevation mask) while experimenting with my new receivers. So if anyone has any insights into these configuration questions I would by grateful. Thank you in advance.

OK -- so in regards to my question posted above, I admit I had a Friday moment. The elevation mask settings were right in front of my face, and I over looked the dialog box a couple of times. However, my second question regarding update rates still is perplexing me.
As far as I can tell, there is no way to modify the update rate in the software. In other programs, the higher update rate is automatically used when in traditional rapid scenarios such as stake out and automatic topo. It appears to be the same in Fast Survey.
