Setting up the
SP60
1. Mount the receiver and data collector on a range pole
(rover), or a tripod (base).
2. Measure and write down the vertical (
Hv
) or slant (
Hs
)
distance from the ground mark to respectively the lower
part of the receiver (ARP) (rover) or to the height mark
(base) (see
[16]
). This measurement will be required by
your field software in a further step.
3. Turn on the SP60 by holding
depressed for about
3 seconds. The Power LED (
[17]
) turns solid orange for
about 15 seconds (receiver booting...), then solid green
(with internal battery) or solid red (if an external power
supply is used). The receiver is ready to use.
4. Meanwhile, turn on the data collector and run your field
software.
Running a Survey
1. Follow the instructions provided by your field software to
use the SP60 as desired (rover or base). The receiver will
beep, and the Bluetooth LED (
[18]
) will stay solid blue,
when a Bluetooth connection is established with the data
collector.
In a rover, the Satellites/Position LED (
[19]
) will stay solid
green when a fixed position solution is computed. With a
rover using the internal radio (option), the Radio LED
(
[20]
) will turn green when corrections are being received.
2. Start your survey job when ready.
3. From time to time, take a look at the Power LED (
[17]
) on
the control panel.
When the Power LED starts blinking green – first at a slow
rate (1 sec), then at a faster rate (5 flashes a second) –
that will mean the battery is too low and the receiver will
soon shut down.
Ending a Survey
1. After your field survey is complete, hold
depressed for
about 3 seconds. Release it when the Buzzer emits a
sound. The Satellites/Position LED (
[19]
) starts blinking
at a fast rate. The receiver will shut down after about
10 seconds.
2. Don’t forget to charge the battery at the end of your day.
The battery will charge overnight.
