This Quick-start guide can be used for the initial setup of the Leica
T-Scan5 system for operation within SA in conjunction with either an
AT960 or AT901.
Set up the unit following the manufacturer's directions. The

AT960 users the MCA-47 cable between the T-Scan and Tracker
controller's signal port (the trigger port is not used). The AT901
uses the MCA-36 cable which has a dual end for the tracker sig-
nal line and trigger connections . A single network cable should
be connected from the computer to the t-scan controller and a
second Ethernet cable connects the tracker and t-scan system
along with a signal cable
