Attaching the pole bracket (optional)
An optional accessory for the Ranger 5 data collector, the pole mount
consists of three parts:
l
the Ranger 5 data collector-facing part. This is a custom bracket
mount which attaches to the Ranger 5 data collector.
l
The adjustable arm.
l
One end screws onto the custom Ranger 5 data collector
bracket mount, and the other end includes a connector that is
compatible with other Spectra Geospatial mounting products.
l
The arm can be set up for left or right hand usage. To switch it
from one side to the other, unscrew the black screws in the
cradle plate where the device sits, rotate the cradle plate, then
screw it back into place.
NOTE –
This part can also be used with a Spectra Geospatial
Ranger 7 data collector.
l
The pole-facing part.
l
One side attaches to the connector on the adjustable arm, and the other side includes the pole
clamp.
l
The pole-facing part is compact, so that it fits into a 10 cm (4”) pipe for storage.
NOTE –
This part can also be used with a Spectra Geospatial Ranger 7 data collector and other
Spectra Geospatial products.
The Ranger 5 data collector bracket mount “snaps” easily onto the data collector.
To attach the bracket to the Ranger 5 data collector:
1.
Screw the adjustable arm onto the bracket mount.
2.
To install the bracket onto the Ranger 5 data collector, place the bracket hook into the mount
point directly above the battery door on the data collector. Then, pull down on the spring
mechanism on the bottom of the bracket mount and push firmly into the data collector to snap
into place.
To remove the bracket mount from the Ranger 5 data collector, pull down on the spring mechanism and
lift up to remove.
When the pole bracket mount and adjustable arm are attached to the Ranger 5 data collector, it “snaps”
easily into the cradle of the pole clamp assembly.
To attach the Ranger 5 data collector onto the pole mount, place the connector on the adjustable arm
into the pole clamp and then push it firmly into the snap lock.
To remove the Ranger 5 data collector from the pole clamp, on the back of the locking mechanism, pull
the lever to release the Ranger 5 data collector.
