I seem to be having some issues now with this. I've reset it, and entered the approximate latitude, longitude, height, as well as date and time. The commands below were executed, although NOT necessarily in the order give. E-113> GPS:INIT:DATe 2016,12,18 E-113> gps:init:time 19,18,35 E-113> SYSTEM:PRESET scpi > DIAG:LOG:READ:ALL? Log status: 2 entries Log 001:19970504.00:00:00: Log cleared Log 002:19970504.00:00:00: System preset The receiver seems to find satellites fairly quickly, tries to track them, and is showing reasonable values for the things I set, like date, time, position etc. However, the receiver doesn't seem able to track any satellites, so not surprisingly the survey never starts. I assume it wont start until it has tracked sufficient number of satellites. scpi > SYSTEM:STATUS? ------------------------------- Receiver Status ------------------------------- SYNCHRONIZATION ...........................................
