Mounting Options

Backpack Mount

The ProFlex 800 is secured in a backpack when used as a
rover for land surveying applications.

Tripod Mount

In land surveying applications, when used as a roaming base
mounted on a tripod, the ProFlex 800 can be secured on one
of the legs of the tripod using the lug located on its bottom
side.

The lug may be secured onto the chassis in two different ways
allowing the receiver to be installed either with its front panel
upwards or sideways (recommended).

Bottom Mount

This type of installation is suitable for machine guidance or
marine applications. The ProFlex 800 is secured from
underneath the receiver case, using four screws M4.

Preparing the support (a flat plane) on which the receiver will
be mounted only consists of drilling four holes, forming a
simple, 100-mm square.

Note that this is a VESA

-compliant mounting scheme.

Cradle Mount

This type of installation is also suitable for machine guidance
or marine applications. The ProFlex 800 can be secured on a
cradle of your choice, possibly designed to allow adjustable
orientation of the receiver front panel.

On both sides of the receiver case are two M4 screws,
135 mm apart, that can be used for mounting the receiver on
the chosen cradle.

In this mounting case, the two plates located on either side
of the receiver case can either be kept in position or simply
removed.
