Startup Protection
Purpose
The SP60 integrates a protection from illegal use. With this
protection active, only authorized operators will be allowed to
use the receiver, after they have entered their password.
Enabling/Disabling Startup Protection
This protection may be enabled or disabled from the data
collector controlling the receiver. If you use the Spectra
Precision
Survey Pro
or
FAST Survey
on your data collector, a
user-friendly interface will let you quickly enable or disable
the startup protection (see
Protections in Survey Pro on page 32
and Startup Protections in FAST Survey on page 34
)
If you are using other software, please contact Technical
Support for more information.
How SP60 Operates with Startup Protection Active
The receiver operates with minimum functionality as long as
the password has not been typed in from the data collector
keyboard. It will operate normally as soon as the requested
password has been entered.
Remember the password needs to be entered after each
power-up sequence (and not only once), and as long as the
protection is kept active.
When you enter the password to unlock the receiver, you can
however decide at the same time that the startup protection
should be deactivated (in that case, the password will not be
required next time you start a new working session).
Difference Between Startup and Anti-Theft Protections
The difference is that startup protection prevents the receiver
from being used illegally, whereas anti-theft protection is
used to detect a possible theft after the receiver has been left
operating unattended as a base.
Shared Resources
Anti-Theft and startup protections share the same password.
If you change the password for anti-theft, then you have also
changed the password for startup protection (and vice versa).
Can Anti-Theft and Startup Protections Be Both Active?
Yes. There is no contradiction between the two protections,
which complement each other. If the startup protection is
active and a theft alarm occurs, then you will have to enter
the password twice: The first one will deactivate the anti-theft
