As this friends of this community, I have the following problem, buy a lot of 8 gps locus but the seller could not tell me which are base and which are rover ...., how can I know ?, should be 4 base and 4 rover ?, can you help me...:oops::oops:
They are all 8 channel, static recievers.
It does not matter, which one sits in one place all day... But it does matter that the batteries dont run out.
I still have some.

Of these 8 teams 4 can be base and 4 rover ?, how can I know if it is the correct base-rover pair?
They are neither base or rover. not real time kenimatic.
I used to have a cluster of 6.
I'd set one unit in a field, and call it base for the day.
Then, using atv, move 1 or 2 at a time, all day long. You can sure get great data this way.
Many many closed loops, that way.

There is NO mechanical difference between a base, or a rover.
A base is just a non moving one.
Have you got ashtech solutions?

I process the data with gnss solutions.
If someone has marked any as base or rover, remove the marking, or sticker.
All you need is the serial num of that reciever, prominently marked on it. This way, you can associate the correct file, and time "start" and "stop", and point desc.

The 8 Locus receivers, have different serial numbers, how can I determine, what is the base ?.
It does not matter.
Your field book entries should contain:. The Serial number.
I used only 4 digits, as that was enough.
Start time
Stop time
Slant height
Pt desc.
You'll see it all at post process time.

So, just entering or knowing the serial number is enough?
Yes. Enough to associate the data file, and the pt desc. And start stop times and slant

I understand, the term "base" can be applied to any receiver, or the name to perform the post-process is only replaced by the serial number.
All you need is to know which FILE, is which, after field work, and during post processing.
The file name, will contain the surial num of the reciever That created the file. The start/stop time will associate it with the correct description.

Thank you very much for your information, I really had a very big question about its use.
