What is receiver initialization?
Initialization is an important step required to configure your receiver correctly. During initialization, you can input the station name (location) where the receiver will be deployed (VR2W only) and set the receiver clock based on your computer clock. The receiver clock is always updated based on your PC clock during initialization. This information will be resident with the receiver and will be available during upload regardless of whether you use the same computer or not. Initialization also erases the receiver log files so be sure to upload data from your receiver before initializing it. When data is uploaded from a receiver, the VRL file contains information about how the receiver was initialized. If a VR2W receiver is deployed without being initialized, the receiver will detect tags but the receiver will not necessarily have the correct clock setting or map configuration that are required for proper data detection. VR2 receivers must be initialized before deployment or they will
