5700 GPS Receiver Operation
To set up the 5700 receiver for a postprocessed survey:
1. Set up the tripod with the tribrach and antenna adapter over the
survey mark.
Instead of a tripod, you can use a range pole with a bipod.
However, Trimble recommends that you use a tripod for greater
stability.
2. Mount the antenna on the tribrach adapter.
3. Use the tripod clip to hang the 5700 receiver on the tripod.
4. Connect the yellow GPS antenna cable to the Zephyr antenna.
5. Connect the other end of the GPS antenna cable to the yellow
TNC port on the 5700 receiver.
6. If external power is required, connect a battery with an 0-shell
Lemo connection to Port 2 or Port 3 on the receiver.
Figure 3.6 shows the 5700 receiver postprocessed setup.
