- 1x Trimble R8 GNSS RTK receiver
- 1x Trimble TSC3 handheld controller (preloaded with survey software)
- 1x Protective hard carrying case
- All required cables, chargers, and mounting accessories (as shown in photos)
- Set Up the Base Station: Place the Trimble R8 receiver on a known survey point, power it on, and configure it as a base station via the TSC3 controller using Trimble Access software.
- Configure the Rover: Mount the second R8 receiver (if included) or use the same unit as a rover on a range pole, pairing it with the TSC3 via Bluetooth.
- Start RTK Corrections: Connect the base and rover via UHF radio, then begin collecting real-time kinematic data for topographic surveys, stakeouts, or construction layout.
- Data Management: Store field data on the TSC3 controller, then transfer files to your office computer via USB for post-processing or reporting.
