communications tower.
•
Do not set up the base station close to the sources of electromagnetic
interference, include alternators and generators, electric motors, equipment
with DC-to-AC converters, etc.
•
Do not operate the receiver outside the specified operating temperature range -
40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F).
•
Take reasonable care to keep the GNSS receiver equipment dry, which could
prolong their life and reduce the effects of corrosion on ports and connectors.

Base Station Setup
1.
Connect the radio antenna onto i50 receiver. Screw the receiver onto extension
pole.
2.
Screw the extension pole with auxiliary H.I. tool onto tribrach adaptor.
3.
Mount the tribrach onto the tripod.
4.
Insert the tribrach adaptor into the tribrach.
5.
Level and plumb the receiver over the known (control) point.
6.
Measure the height of the base station GNSS antenna by measuring the slant
height from the known (control) point to the end of auxiliary H.I. tool.
Note
–After entered the vertical height from the known (control) point to the bottom
of receiver that you calculated by adding the height of the extension pole to the height
from the known (control) point to the auxiliary H.I. tool, LandStar 7 will calculate the
height to the Antenna Phase Center (APC) automatically.
7.
If required, connect the receiver to an external 12 V power supply.
