Figure 3.6 GPS Receiver Module Fixed Height Tripod Installation

Adjustable Height Tripods
Insert the tribrach adapter through the mounting hole of the HI Measurement Plate.
Screw the adapter into the GPS Receiver Module, while holding the HI measurement
plate in place. Carefully set the assembly (Z-Max, mounting plate, tribrach adapter)
onto the tripod. Once the Z-Max is securely mounted to the tripod, the height of the
GPS antenna must be measured. The HI measurement plate is used to measure a
slant height from the receiver to the survey mark. The HI measurement plate provides
a fixed radius which allows a reduction to vertical height. To determine the total height
of the setup, add this reduced vertical height to the vertical height of the Z-Max which
is printed on the underside of the GPS Antenna Module.
