Real-time rover setup step-by-step
Setting up the Equipment
- Insert the battery into the iCON gps 30 Smart Antenna.
- Screw iCON gps 30 Smart Antenna onto the top of the telescopic pole.
- Ensure that the compression lock is not clamped.
- Extend the telescopic pole and ensure that the snap-lock clicks into its position. The snap-lock ensures that there is no slipping of the telescopic pole.
- Clamp the compression lock. The compression lock maintains straightness.
- Fix the holder to the clamp with the tightening screw. Before tightening, ensure that the holder is at a comfortable working height and angle. It can be achieved by sliding the clamp along the pole and rotating the holder about the clamp. Tighten the tightening screw.
- Insert the battery into the field controller.
- Clip the field controller onto the holder and lock into position.
- Turn on the antenna and the controller.
- Run the data collection or stakeout application of the iCON field software
