Attaching the
Handstrap
The SP20 can more safely be hand-held using the handstrap
(provided). The handstrap gives a better grasp and eliminates
the risk of accidentally dropping the unit to the ground.
First you should attach the two ends of the handstrap to the
back of the SP20. As shown below, there are two ways of
attaching it. You’ll choose one way or another, depending on
whether you are left- or right-handed.
CAUTION - The ends of the
handstrap are different. One
is designed to be hooked to
the center bottom of the
unit, and the other to the
right or left side of the unit.
Installing an
Accuracy Option
This step is required if you have purchased the SP20 with
position accuracy better than the default meter accuracy. You
need to download and install GNSSLoader on the SP20.
GNSSLoader can be downloaded for free from Google Play or
from the Spectra Precision website. For more information on
GNSSLoader, refer to page 24.
Before Running
Your GIS/Survey
Application
Most Android applications, including Spectra Precision
MobileMapper Field, will need SPace as the software
interface between your application and the SP20. SPace can
also be downloaded for free from Google Play. For more
details, see Using SPace Software on page 10.
On the other hand, some other applications (like Spectra
Precision Survey Mobile) do not need SPace as they integrate
their own interface to the SP20.
Turning Off SP20 We recommend you neatly turn off the SP20 as explained
below, which will avoid losing data.
After you have finished your work, turn off the SP20 by
holding the Power button [12] pressed until a dialog pops up,
inviting you to either power off, reboot or switch the SP20 to
Airplane mode.
Tou ch Power off on the screen. This starts the power off
procedure. Wait until the screen goes blank.
