How do you ignore the Tilt sensor calibration? It doesn't usually work right anyway. My rod bubble has been calibrated and I trust it more than the ebubble.

Just turn it off. You do not have to use it or have it turned on.

How do you get by the tilt calibration routine?

@skeeter1996 In Access under your RTK survey style in the Rover Options there should be a box that says "tilt functions" or "tilt" or similar.?ÿ Just uncheck that box to disable the tilt functions.

Do all the calibration routines. Esp the one on the tripod where you spin it.

Calibration of the e bubble to your 8 minute already rod calibrated bubble makes for pretty tight work with good skies.

Or just turn it off like the other replies.

Get an R 8 if you don't want the tilt.?ÿ Its less expensive, and works great.

@rover83 I've been torturing the ones I just got a couple of weeks ago.?ÿ My favorite party trick is to stake a control point, then shoot it as a topo point and wave the rod in giant circles for a minute or so and then store the shot and watch the mouths drop when the shot is within .01' of the control point.

I just want to be able to use it instead of standing there slowly turning the receiver trying to get past the "Calibration Failed" so I can get some work done.

You only really need to do the first calibration, which is the accelerometers that determine the amount of tilt. All it requires is a good setup and it probably takes 30 seconds. I do it on a tripod with a tribrach and rotatable adapter - after performing the calibration I rotate the adapter and make sure it stays level. This gives me the added benefit of confirming that my tribrach is still in good calibration. It's pretty unlikely that your pole's level is more accurate than the ebubble when the calibration is performed correctly.

The other two calibrations are for the magnetometers, which as far as I can tell are mainly used for compensated points, which I've never had much success with. So I don't usually bother with them.

@rover83 Is the R12i self-calibrating?

You forgot to mention the non-optional TSC7 or 5 accessory available at extra cost
