# Set Fixed LLH or ECEF

**This step-by-step tutorial will let you to manually set the Longitude, Latitude, Height and Earth-Centered Earth-Fixed for the Base.**

> **LLH**: Longitude, Latitude, Height
>
> **ECEF**: Earth-Centered Earth-Fixed

First, connect your GNSS device to a computer using a USB micro cable.

Now start the U-blox “u-center” software. Then on the top left corner of the screen, left-click on the reversed tiny black triangle to select the COM Port related to your GNSS device. (the COM port may differ, COM7 as shown in pictures)

Make sure the connection icon is blinking in the bottom state bar. It indicates that the serial communication between the computer and the GNSS device is working.

Next go to ‘View’ then click on “**Generation 9 Configuration View**”

A new window showing by default “**GNSS Configuration**” opens.

1. So first, click on “**Advanced Configuration**” to display all the configuration registers.
2. Then click on the small ‘+’ on the **CFG-TPMODE** line
3. You can now have access to an expanded menu and click on **CFG-TPMODE-MODE**
4. Select “**2-FIXED**” in the dropdown menu
5. Click consecutively on **RAM**, **BBR** and **Flash** to write changes into RAM and both non-volatile memories (BBR and Flash)
6. Check the 3 corresponding commands are present in the “Ready to send” box and then click on ‘**Send**’
