GPS requirements 5 As the Stream-C system can be operated with a GNSS to position the scans in real time without the need of creating a grid, the operator should consider the following requirements relating to the positioning device:
1. Dual frequency (L1+L2);
2. Positioning update greater than 5 Hz;
3. RTK: connection to a base station via radio link (UHF or GSM) or connection to a Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) via internet;
4. NMEA output;
5. Serial cable (RS232) is required, alternatively the GPS can be connected to the laptop via Bluetooth. Fig. 4.16 Mounting the GPS pole support 6 Maintenance plan Cleaning Information 6.1 Before cleaning any external parts of the apparatus, make sure that all cables have been disconnected, including the power supply cable. If a damp cloth is used, make sure it is not too wet, to avoid any damage to the electrical components of the equipment. Wait until the equipment is totally dry before reconnecting the cables. The Stream-C should be cleaned periodically using a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents. Do not apply liquid directly to the electrical contacts of the various connectors. If a specific spray is used to clean the PC TFT monitor, make sure it is not flammable; in any case, do not spray it directly on the screen, instead, spray it onto the cleaning cloth.
