Before testing the MTi-600 Development Kit, the MTi-600 needs to be installed onto the MTi-600 DEV. Place the MTi-600 onto the socket between the spacers. Secure the MTi-600 by screwing the three M2 brass screws in the spacers. Ensure that switch SW2 is set to DW: USB.
For the MTi-670-DK and MTi-680-DK, the GNSS daughter card is already installed on the MTi-600 DEV. To use the GNSS receiver, the included GNSS antenna needs to be connected to the SMA connector of the GNSS daughter card.
The MT Software Suite is available to download from the Software & documentation page.
The installation procedure consists of a set of several installers and starts with the GUI as shown below.

can be visualized by clicking their respective icons. In order to open these windows, the corresponding data outputs of the MTi need to be configured. Otherwise, the window icons will be grey.
The MTi 600-series can be directly configured by means of MT Manager. Click the Device Settings button
to open the Output Configuration dialog.

By default, the output of the MTi-600 is set to the ‘Onboard Processing’ preset. Click “Inertial Data” (∆q/∆v or Rate of Turn/Acceleration) and “Magnetic Field” to be able to show this data in MT Manager.
With MT Manager, it is possible to record data and export that data for use in other programs, set alignment matrices, configure synchronization options and to review the test and calibration report. More information on the functions and features can be found in the MT Manager User Manual.
