6.8 Pushrod reels
Whenever you connect a pushrod as part of your C550 system, it prompts you to select the reel type and
calibrate the reel. You must also calibrate the new reel if you change reels (connect a different reel to the
controller). The reel must be correctly calibrated to ensure that camera distances are accurate.
Note: For definitions of calibration and zero distance, see
Follow these steps:
1 Rewind the pushrod completely.
Make sure the pushrod is layered evenly and correctly onto the reel and the end of the rod is
level with the rod guide.
2 Power on the controller.
3 In the Equipment settings menu, select the Reel type you are using from the dropdown list and
ensure Reel power is on. Then press Select.
Caution! It is essential that you select the correct reel for best video quality and accurate distance
measurements. If you select the wrong reel, pushrod distance measurements will not be accurate
and your survey may be unusable.
5 The controller now displays an advisory reminding you to fully rewind the pushrod.
