3 Installation Instructions
Below is a diagram for the recommended installation of the Intuicom RTK Bridge®-X
utilizing the equipment noted above.
The RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver is designed to be plugged directly into the GNSS
receiver and has both data and power connections. The unit should be mounted so that it is
secure and not overly straining the cable and connectors.
The RTK Bridge-X should be installed in the cab of the tractor where the diagnostic LEDs
can be monitored. When using the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver, the RTK Bridge-X
will need to be powered via the included DC power leads since it is no longer being powered
through the StarFire™ 3000. Connect all antennas to the RTK Bridge-X and connect the
power cable. Plug the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver into the GNSS receiver.
Connecting the RTK Bridge®-X to the StarFire™ 3000
•Open the base of the StarFire™ 3000 and unplug the radio connector if included.
Plug the connector from the RTK Bridge®-X Bluetooth Receiver into the StarFire™
connector. Reassemble the StarFire™ 3000 making sure the cable is not crimped and
waterproofing the housing where the cable enters. Diagram 2, below shows the
inside of the StarFire™ receiver and where the RTK Bridge®-X Bluetooth Receiver
cable will plug in.

4 Configuration
In order to send the correction to the Intuicom RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver, it must
first be paired with the RTK Bridge-X. Once RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver is powered
up, the LINK LED will begin flashing, this indicates the receiver is in pairing mode. Now
the RTK Bridge-X needs to find the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver. Log into the RTK
Bridge-X and navigate to the Bluetooth page.
Bluetooth must be enabled on the RTK Bridge-X. Check the Enable box and click the SAVE
button.
Section 4:Configuration

Now the RTK Bridge-X is ready to pair to the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver. Press the
Pairing button and the RTK Bridge-X will start to search for the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth
Receiver. This process can take 10-20 seconds and may have to be run more than once if
there is interference. Disabling the WiFi may help for the pairing process to be faster; but
will require that the unit be configured via direct Ethernet connection or via Cellular
connection.
Once the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver has been discovered, press the Pair with device
button. The PAIR LED on the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver should stop blinking and
be constantly on indicating a successful pairing. The DATA LED should start blinking as
the RTK Bridge-X begins sending data to the RTK Bridge-X Bluetooth Receiver.
Section 4:Configuration
Version 1.4 10 © 2015 Intuicom, Inc.
The StarFire™ 3000 must be configured to receive at 38,400 baud rate (set baud rate), 8 data
bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit. The correction type must match the correction type being
received in the RTK Bridge-X (typically RTCM). See the StarFire™ 3000 Installation guide
for details on configuring the receiver.
