the instrument, press the Trigger key for 3 seconds.
Depending on the settings in the Spectra Geospatial data
collector field software the instrument will turn off or go to
suspend mode.
The instrument will go to suspend mode if the battery is very
low (battery capacity less than 2%).
Suspend Mode
In the Suspend mode, the Trigger key LED will flash once every
other second, the face 2 display will be off. To turn the
instrument on press the Trigger key for 1 second. To turn the
instrument off press the Trigger key for 3 seconds.
Battery Low Message
If the battery capacity drops too low, the Bat Low message
appears in the Spectra Geospatial data collector display
window and the instrument shuts down. You must then change
the battery within two hours to prevent losing instrument
parameters and functions such as instrument height, target
height, coordinates and bearing. After that time, the system
resets all parameters and functions to default values.
Note - This safety backup of the instrument parameters
and functions will work only when Bat low appears on the
display; it will not function if you remove the battery during
operation.
