TriPad (Figure 1) is a simple user interface that consists of keys and LEDs, which can control and display
the operation of the receiver.
Figure 1. TriPad
TriPad brings a new level of automation to the GNSS field operation. Its function is similar to what is
available on advanced photo cameras, where the camera takes several light and distance measurements,
adjusts all the settings of the camera, and conveys the ready status of the camera (by a green light) for the
photographer to push the button.
Behind the simple appearance of TriPad, there are sophisticated algorithms and tests that ensure reliable
data collection and recording.
1. TriPad Functions
TriPad performs the following functions:
• Turns the receiver On or Off, or put it in the Sleep mode. When in Sleep mode, the receiver will
turn on in response to any activity on the RS232 port.
• Turns data recording On or Off.
• Shows the number of GPS and GLONASS satellites that are being tracked.
• Shows data recording status.
• Shows each time data is recorded to internal memory.
• TriPad’s LEDs and Keys
As usually TriPad has the following LEDs:
FN button
