WARNING – 5700 and 5800 GPS receivers use a rechargeable Lithium-ion
battery. To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, make sure that
you read and understand the Safety Information chapter at the front of
this manual.
The following guidelines apply whenever you set up your receiver for
operation:
When plugging in a Lemo cable, make sure that the red dots on
the receiver port and the cable connector line up. Do not use
force to plug cables in, as this may damage the connector pins.
When disconnecting a Lemo cable, grasp the cable by the sliding
collar or lanyard and pull the cable connector straight out of the
port. Do not twist the connector or pull on the cable itself.
To securely connect a TNC cable, align the cable connector with
the receiver receptacle and thread the cable connector onto the
receptacle until snug.
Insert the internal batteries with the battery contacts facing the
CompactFlash/USB door. The undersides of the batteries have a
center groove for alignment when being inserted into the
receiver.
