Trimble R7 GPS Receiver Operation
Mounting the TSCe controller
1. Mount the TSCe™ controller bracket on the pole:
a. Place the bracket against the pole at a comfortable height.
b. Rotate the clamping screw on the bracket pole until tight.
c. Place the controller into the cradle assembly and tighten
the clamping mechanism.
d. Any cables running down the pole should be run through
the machined groove on the inside of the controller bracket.
e. Position the controller in the preferred position for
operation by pressing the spring-loaded release button on
the cradle, pulling the assembly outward, and rotating the
cradle assembly to the desired angle. Reseat the cradle in
the proper position by lining up the alignment pins and
pushing inward until the release button locks.
2. Connect one end of the 2 ft 0-shell to 0-shell Lemo cable to the
controller.
3. Connect the other end of the Lemo cable to Port 1 on the
receiver.
4. Place the hand grip below the controller bracket (or above it,
depending on the position of the bracket), with the cables
running through the grip.
5. Secure any loose cables, using the velcro cable ties.
Figure 3.10, on page 27 shows the pole-mounted setup.
