Phase center Location Without UHF module Antenna name :SPP91564_1 With UHF module Antenna name :SPP91564_2 • The antenna phase center offset is reduced by 2mm • The delta is automatically applied by the receiver (different antenna name)
SP80 UHF Rover Inside-the-rod mounted UHF antenna design Patented UHF antenna / pole design Physical UHF antenna protection Cleaner design Extends RTK radio range, shorter RF cable length internally Typical external UHF antenna radiation pattern The radiated pattern is asymmetric A real degradation of the reception level when the unit is oriented at 0º, and 120º azimuth This is why reception on most rovers changes when you rotate the pole.

Monitoring Batteries The battery A is used battery B level Battery is missing The receiver is powered from the AC/DC power block, not by one of its batteries. « battery low » alarm is raised when the battery is < 10 - 15 % (T). The batteries can be charged inside the receiver with the external AC/DC power If the receiver is off and cool.

ANTI-THEFT Protection Purpose : Locks the base receiver to a specific location (remote or public places) Allows tracking of the SP80 position if moved Makes receiver useless without the antitheft password How it works : At the time the antitheft is enabled, the computed position is saved in memory and if the receiver has been configured for that, an SMS/Email containing the antitheft password is sending to the antitheft contacts .
ANTI-THEFT Protection What happens : The buzzer regularly emits a sound alarm SP80 front panel alarm > All output messages are stopped the SP80 configuration cannot be changed (input commands are rejected) The 3 front panel buttons are inactive (upgrade, reset, power off no more possible) If the receiver has been configured for anti-theft, SMS and/or emails are sent every minute to the contacts indicated in the antitheft menu Both SMS and emails contain the base’s last computed position to help you t
ANTI-THEFT Protection Antitheft Disable : • Enter the antitheft password (you have defined and received when you have enable the antitheft feature) • If the antitheft protection is still active when you power off the receiver, the following screen is displayed on the SP80 front panel • By pressing the Scroll button to reject the power off, you can disable the antitheft protection.
