Chapter I : A brief introduction of S9III
The manufacture of this device is Stonex Europe Srl. STONEX®devoted itself to offer to
surveyors the most advanced GPS tools. GPS RTK surveying technology plays an important role
in surveying tasks and its use is getting more and more widespread. As a leading GPS RTK
instrument producer, STONEX®guarantees that the S9III, our latest RTK GPS receiver, is suited
for nowadays demands of precision, reliability and user friendliness.
S9III is able to receive both of GPS signal frequencies, but also satellite signals from GLONASS
and GALILEO, so we must correctly speak of “GNSS” receiver.
S9III mainframe integrates a GNSS antenna, GNSS module, UHF transmitting and receiving
radio, radio antenna, GSM/GPRS modem, Bluetooth device and battery. So S9III is totally
integrated: it means that the surveyor only needs the handheld to start its job.
The exquisite outlook and the amazing color bring you a fashioned surveying station. This
device has a higher stability, lesser power consumption, smaller volume and lighter weight than
the previous STONEX®receivers. S9III has a special design which makes it waterproof,
dustproof and vibration-proof. The batteries and built-in radio are set in the bottom of
mainframe, giving more effective dustproof and waterproof qualities and makes the S9III a
better performer in field of surveying. The Wireless receiver unit (weighs) 1.2 kg: the rover is
light and easy to carry. The low power consumption of receiver allows users to carry out and
work in long time with only one single battery.
Integrated design and anti-jamming property are combined perfectly: the former avoids the
problem of a cumbersome external antenna, and the mainframe design can resolve the
jamming problem effectively.
The performance of data-transfer radio technology is state-of-the-art: the bit error rate (BER) is
10-7 and the radio collision problem is reduced.
UHF antenna is studied in order to make its electromagnetic center connected with the
electromagnetic center of dual-frequency antenna: in this way it reduces at the same time the
Chapter I: A brief introduction of S9 III

interference and makes the volume much smaller. The tight electronic shielding can avoid the
interference more effectively.
The S9III receiver mounts a GPS/GLONASS antenna with a four feed technology. This design is
able to reduce the electrical phase center error ellipsoid and in addiction it improves the Right
Hand Circular Polarization Characteristics (RHCP) of the antenna, resulting in enhanced GPS
signal tracking and improved multipath rejection, in case a polarization reversal has taken
place as a result of the signal reflection.
At the same time S9III has a GPRS/GSM module which supports different network RTK
technologies (VRS, FKP, etc.). This allows STONEX® S9III receiver to be a flexible system for
demanding surveying applications. As a rover, it can be used as a static double frequency
receiver or in a RTK configuration, where differential corrections are received from CORS via
GSM/GPRS data modem (maximum range 70 km) or by another S9III receiver acting as base,
linked by GSM/GPRS data modem or UHF radio modem.
In the last case S9III in base configuration can transmit with the built-in 0.5 W radio or can be
connected to a more powerful external radio at user's disposal in order to reach the requested
metric range.
The receiver can be connected to different RTK software for different applications. The data
transfer is easy and fast, like a Plug and Play USB drive.
STONEX®provides two year of warranty to S9III receivers . It should be noted that high power
signals from a nearby radio or radar transmitter can overwhelm the receiver circuits. Low
power transmitter like those used in cell-phones do not normally interfere with receiver’s
operations. It’s important to draw your attention to the operational temperatures, limits which
should not be exceeded for a correct functioning (see pag. 55).
It is also important to point out that in each weather case after coming back from the field
you should keep the container open in a warm and dry place and at the same time take out the
controller and receiver from the container, in order to make them dry.
Anyway we recommend you to manage the instrument with reasonable care.
Even if you have used other GPS or GNSS products before, we recommend that you spend some
time reading this manual to learn about the special features of this product.

If you are not familiar with GNSS technology, we suggest you read a specific book in order to
better understand the contents of this manual. Any way you can ask for any technical support
by sending an email to our address support@stonex or contact your local dealer.
ATTENTION:
In order to facilitate reading and operating, we offer one manual which take the S9ⅢGNSS for
example to introduce our products. This manual is valid for S9ⅢGNSS, S9ⅢN GNSS, S8 GNS
S, S8N GNSS. Most of their constructions, functions and operations are the same, just a little
different between them and we list them on the page7, 8, 63, 64, 65. All of these will not affect
the use of the products.

Chapter II: S9III mainframe
II.1 The outlook of mainframe
The mainframe has an almost cylindrical shape, with a base larger than the height. There are
three parts: an upper cap, a rubber loop and the main structure. The upper cap protects the
GNSS antenna placed inside. The rubber loop has the function of softening possible shocks or
falls. In the front of the main structure there are 2 keys and 9 lights, on the bottom side there is
one slot for the built-in radio and GSM/GPRS module, and one for the battery and SIM card. All
the others components of the receiver (Bluetooth device, main board, OEM board, etc.) are
contained inside the main structure.

The labels above are of model S9III, S9IIIN, S8 and S8N. The NB marks of them are different.
The GPS receivers with the model No. of S8N GNSS and S9IIIN GNSS carry the CE marking
on the label. Accordingly, the GPS receivers with the model No. of S8 GNSS and S9III
GNSS carry the CE marking .The GPS receivers with the on the CE marking

II.2 Interfaces
The mainframe interfaces are shown in Fig. 2.6: the left port (five pins LEMO) is used for
external power supply and external radio, the right port (seven pins LEMO) is used for data
transferring between receiver and computer or between receiver and the handheld. Near the
