CONFIGURE THE SPAN® SYSTEM
Follow these steps to enable INS as part of the SPAN system using software commands:
1.Establish a connection to the OEM6 receiver.
Refer to the receiver Quick Start Guide for information about connecting to the receiver and entering commands.
A GNSS antenna must be connected and tracking satellites for operation.
2.Issue the CONNECTIMU command to specify the type of IMU and the receiver port connected to the IMU (see Table 1).
