Range Pole RF Adapter - Survey Pole

When a backpack is being used, a survey pole is necessary to obtain an accurate
measurement from the survey mark to the GPS antenna phase center. Therefore, in
the backpack configuration, components need to be mounted on both the survey pole
and in the backpack. The Range Pole RF Adapter connects directly to the survey pole
(Figure 3.29) and provides a cable interface for the cables that run between the Z-Max
backpack and the survey range pole. The Range Pole RF Adapter is exactly the same
height as the GPS Receiver Module in order to keep the same antenna HI as the Z-
Max pole-mounted system.
To attach the Range Pole RF Adapter to the survey pole, simply screw it onto the top
of the 5/8 inch threaded survey pole or adapter bolt.
