Pole-Mounted Setup

To mount the 5700 receiver on a pole, you need to do the following:

1.

Mount the eRTK Range Pole antenna (RPA).

2.

Mount the 5700 receiver.

3.

Mount the TSC1 data collector.

This section provides detailed instructions on each of these three steps.

Mounting the Range Pole antenna (RPA)

To mount the RPA on the pole:

1.

Install the RPA bracket 7.5 cm (3") from the pole top by placing
the two pieces together and securing with screws. If you are
using a 1" diameter pole, place the bracket inserts inside the
bracket before securing.

Note – You can use a quarter-wave whip (“rubber duck”)
antenna instead of the RPA.

2.

Connect the yellow TNC-to-TNC cable (Part Number
41300-02) and route it through the RPA bracket clips where it is
labeled on the bracket. Make sure that the right angle connector
is at the top.

3.

Align the TNC connector on the RPA with the GPS antenna
cable on the bracket, and slide the RPA onto the bracket until it
clicks.
