Typical Setups

On a Tripod (static survey):

• Place the receiver in its field bracket and mount the

assembly onto one the tripod’s legs.

• Insert the antenna vertical extension (a short pole

provided along with the receiver) at the top of the tripod.

• Secure the antenna provided at the top of this short pole.

• Connect the antenna to the receiver antenna input using

the coaxial cable provided.

• Install the tripod over the chosen point (the reference

point for a base, the surveyed point for a rover).

• Skip to page 22 for a base, page 23 for a rover.

On a pole or bipod (kinematic survey):

• Place the receiver in its field bracket and mount the

assembly onto the pole at a suitable height.

• Secure the antenna provided at the top of the pole.

• Connect the antenna to the receiver antenna input using

the coaxial cable provided.

• Skip to Rover Collecting Raw Data in Stop & Go Kinematic

on page 25 or Rover Collecting Raw Data in Continuous
Kinematic on page 27
.

IMPORTANT! Choosing the right setup before starting
collecting raw data is crucial.

Modifying the setup after starting data collection will have a
detrimental effect on the post-processing of your field data.

Please follow the recommendations below once data
collection is started:

• DO NOT change the external antenna.

• DO NOT switch between external and internal antenna (by

plugging / unplugging the external antenna cable).

• DO NOT change the tracking mode (in GNSS Toolbox,

GNSS Settings).

Not following these recommendations will inevitably force the
receiver to close the current raw data file and create a new
one, thus impeding seriously the outcome of the post-
processing step.
