[. . . ] Do not allow a battery that is in storage to discharge to below 5 V. Charging the Lithium-ion battery The rechargeable Lithium-ion battery is supplied partially charged. If the battery has been stored for longer than three months, charge it before use. 18 NetR3 GNSS Reference Sensor User Guide Batteries and Power 3 The internal battery charges fully in 8 hours when connected to a suitable power source. C WARNING ­ Charge and use the rechargeable Lithium-ion battery only in strict accordance with the instructions. Charging or using the battery in unauthorized equipment can cause an explosion or fire, and can result in personal injury and/or equipment damage. To prevent injury or damage: ­ Do not charge or use the battery if it appears to be damaged or leaking. ­ Charge the Lithium-ion battery only with a Trimble product that is specified to charge it. Be sure to follow all instructions that are provided with the battery charger. ­ Discontinue charging a battery that gives off extreme heat or a burning odor. ­ Use the battery only in Trimble equipment that is specified to use it. ­ Use the battery only for its intended use and according to the instructions in the product documentation. Storing the Lithium-ion battery If you must store a Lithium-ion battery for long periods, make sure that it is fully charged before it is stored, and that you charge it at least once every three months while it is stored. A battery that reaches deep discharge level (5 V or less) cannot be recharged and must be replaced. (To protect a battery that is in use from deep discharge, the receiver switches power sources or stops drawing power when the battery pack discharges to 5. 9 V. ) All batteries discharge over time when not in use, and they discharge faster in colder temperatures. Do not store the receiver at temperatures outside the range ­40 °C to +70 °C (­40 °F to +158 °F). The internal battery will only charge from an external power source that delivers more than 15 volts, for example, an AC power adaptor. The receiver is supplied with a mains power supply unit that recharges the battery inside the receiver when it is connected through the adaptor to the multiport adapter or the Lemo port. When you use the receiver on large projects, from a permanent or semi-permanent base station location in a site trailer, Trimble recommends that you use this power supply at all times to keep the internal battery charged. This provides an uninterrupted power supply and will keep the site operational for up to 6 hours after a power failure. You can keep batteries on charge indefinitely without damage to the receiver or to the batteries. Removing the rechargeable Lithium-ion battery The internal Lithium-ion battery should be removed only at an authorized Trimble Service Center. If the battery is removed at an unauthorized service center, the remaining warranty on the product will be void.

It also describes how to connect the receiver to external devices. NetR3 GNSS Reference Sensor User Guide 21 4 Setting up the Receiver Setup guidelines When you set up the receiver, follow these guidelines. Environmental conditions The receiver has a waterproof housing. To improve the performance and long-term reliability of the receiver, avoid exposing the receiver to extreme environmental conditions, such as: · · · · Water Heat greater than 65 °C (149 °F) Cold less than -40 °C (-40 °F) Corrosive fluids and gases Sources of electrical interference Avoid locating the GNSS antenna near the following sources of electrical and magnetic noise: · · · · · · · Gasoline engines (spark plugs) Televisions and computer monitors Alternators and generators Electric motors Equipment with DC-to-AC converters Fluorescent lights Switching power supplies Uninterruptible power supply Trimble recommends that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to power the receiver. A UPS protects the equipment from power surges and spikes, and keeps the receiver running during short power outages. For more information, contact your local Trimble dealer. Lightning protection Trimble recommends that you implement lightning and electrical surge protection equipment at the NetR3 installation site. [. . . ] To select the RT17 Streamed Data service or to override the streamed data settings in the sensor, use the Web interface. NetR3 GNSS Reference Sensor User Guide 63 B Real-Time Data and Services RT17/RT27 Streamed Data service An RT17/RT27 service provides GNSS observations, ephemerides, and other information needed in a real-time sensor data stream. Trimble GNSS Infrastructure software can connect to a NetR3 data port and configure the required streamed service. If your application requires an output only stream that prohibits software control of the receiver. The port should be configured in Output only mode. Using the keypad and display to configure RT27 outputs You can configure RT27 output during the sensor setup using the front panel. [. . . ]
