This booklet explains (by means of practical examples) some of the basic concepts and functions of the Leiea GPS-System 300.
The three main component parts of Leiea GPS-System 300 are as follows:
I.  Leiea GPS Sensor
II. Leiea GPS Controller
III.SKI Static Kinematie Software

The booklet has been designed to be useful as both a learning tool and a short reference manual for the Sensor and Controller. The best way to leam the system is to work through the exercises presented here. Note that the booklet is written primarily for use with the CR333 Controller and SR399 Sensor although it can also be used in conjunction with other combinations of Leica/WILD GPS equipment.
The booklet also explains some of the common functionality of the Controller and is suitable for use as a "field manual." If more detailed information is required the reader should refer to the Technieal
