Understanding the reflector/antenna heights with the
GLS12/GLS12F pole
RX1200
50
The GLS12 (cm)/GLS12F (ft) telescopic pole has fixed equally spaced snap-lock positions. The scale readings along the pole relate to the height of the reflector
(prism centre). Two additional positions, clearly marked with diagrams on the pole, relate to the SmartAntenna. The snap-lock must always click into position.
Snap-lock positions Diagram on pole
1. Use only these snap-lock positions for measurements with:
GRZ4 360° prism or GRZ122 360° prism or circular prism
Reflector Height (prism centre) = height reading on pole
2. Use only this snap-lock position for measurements with:
SmartAntenna and the GRZ122 360° prism
Antenna Height (MRP) = 2.0 m/6.562 ft
Reflector Height (prism centre) = 1.941 m/6.368 ft
The height difference between:
SmartAntenna(MRP) - Reflector(prism centre) = 5.90 cm/0.194 ft
3. Use only this snap-lock position for measurements with:
SmartAntenna and the GAD31 screw to stub adapter
Antenna Height (MRP) = 2.0 m/6.562 ft

RX1200
This chapter is valid for all RX1250 models and GHT56.
54
Primary use/charging
• The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is delivered with an energy content as low as possible.
• For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual to make only one charge/discharge cycle.
• For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We recommend carrying out the process when the battery capacity indicated on the charger or on a Leica Geosystems product deviates significantly from the actual battery capacity available.
• The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to +40°C/ +32°F to +104°F. For optimal charging we recommend charging the batteries at a low ambient temperature of +10°C to +20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.
• It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recommended by Leica Geosystems, it is not possible to charge the battery if the temperature is too high.
Operation/Discharging
• The batteries can be operated from -20°C to +55°C/-4°F to +131°F.
• Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; very high operating temperatures reduce the service life of the battery.

Guidelines for Correct Results with GNSS Surveys
Undisturbed satellite signal reception
Successful GNSS surveys require undisturbed satellite signal reception, especially at the receiver which serves as a reference. Set up the receivers in locations which are free of obstructions such as trees, buildings or mountains.
Steady antenna for static surveys
For static surveys, the antenna must be kept perfectly steady throughout the whole occupation of a point. Put the antenna on a tripod or pillar.
Centred and levelled antenna
Centre and level the antenna precisely over the marker.
