Page 34: Trueview One Payload Field Operations
TrueView ONE Hardware User Guide TRUEVIEW ONE PAYLOAD FIELD OPERATIONS Base Station The TrueView 3DIS records GNSS signals during flight which will be corrected later in LP360. This type of system is known as a PPK system. Base station processing methods should be considered during the planning process because the user will need to determine how they plan to correct their flight data before collecting. -
Page 35: Pre-Flight
TrueView ONE Hardware User Guide Pre-Flight LED STATUS INDICATORS OPERATION When the power switch is turned on (if the drone is equipped with one) or power is applied to the system, the system will go through the startup procedure as normal, and all LED indicators will flash yellow. After a few seconds, each LED status indicator will begin to show a sequence. -
Page 36: After Landing
TrueView ONE Hardware User Guide navigate above the takeoff location before beginning its automatic descent. If you are closer than 5m, it will likely begin descending without aligning with the original takeoff location. 12. After the drone has been stationary for two seconds, hold the (Home) button to begin the automatic return and landing. - Page 37 TrueView ONE Hardware User Guide 7. Field check the data to verify all data has been collected. The Field check instructions can be found in the LP360 Users Guide. The flashing white light indicates the TrueView is writing data to the drive. Do not power off the TrueView or remove the drive while it is writing the data to the UMS drive.
