Once the first operational Galileo satellites are available, a software update will be
required.
The GS GNSS instruments are additionally designed to support Compass. The
Compass signal definition is not fully finalised, although, test signals have been
tracked in a test environment. As changes can still occur, Leica Geosystems cannot
guarantee full Compass compatibility.
The GS GNSS instruments use the GPS P-code signal, which by U.S. policy is liable to
be switched off without notice. Phase measurements on L2 are ensured as these
instruments automatically switch to patented tracking techniques.

Power Concept
General
Use the Leica Geosystems batteries, chargers and accessories or accessories recommended by Leica Geosystems to ensure the correct functionality of the instrument.
Power options
Power for the instrument can be supplied either internally or externally. Up to two
external power supplies can be connected.
Internal power supply:
Two batteries (for GS10: GEB221; for GS15: GEB211 or
GEB212) fit into the instrument.
If one battery fails, a system shutdown of the
GS10/GS15 GNSS instrument will be prevented by
switching over directly to the second battery.

Memory device
SD card:
All GS GNSS instruments have an SD card slot fitted as standard. An SD
card can be inserted and removed. Available capacity: 1 GB.
While other SD cards can be used, Leica Geosystems recommends to only use
Leica SD cards and is not responsible for data loss or any other error that can
occur while using a non-Leica card.
Unplugging connecting cables or removing the SD card during the measurement can
cause loss of data. Only remove the SD card or unplug connecting cables when the
GS GNSS instrument is switched off.
SD cards can directly be used in an OMNI drive as supplied by Leica Geosystems.
Other PC card drives can require an adaptor.

Discharging
•

GS10/GS15, Operation
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.
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.
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 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; 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 instrument which serves as a base. Set up the instrument 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. Place the antenna on a tripod or pillar.
Centred and
levelled antenna
Centre and level the antenna precisely over the marker.

• To prevent damages due to indirect lightning strikes (voltage spikes) cables, for
example for antenna, power source or modem should be protected with appropriate protection elements, like a lightning arrester. These installations must be
carried out by an authorised specialist.
• If there is a risk of a thunderstorm, or if the equipment is to remain unused and
unattended for a long period, protect your product additionally by unplugging all
systems components and disconnecting all connecting cables and supply cables,
for example, instrument - antenna.
Lightning
conductors
Suggestion for design of a lightning conductor for a GNSS system:
1) On non-metallic structures
Protection by air terminals is recommended. An air terminal is a pointed solid or
tubular rod of conducting material with proper mounting and connection to a
conductor. The position of four air terminals can be uniformly distributed around
the antenna at a distance equal to the height of the air terminal.
The air terminal diameter should be 12 mm for copper or 15 mm for aluminium.
The height of the air terminals should be 25 cm to 50 cm. All air terminals should
be connected to the down conductors. The diameter of the air terminal should
be kept to a minimum to reduce GNSS signal shading.
2) On metallic structures
Protection is as described for non-metallic structures, but the air terminals can
be connected directly to the conducting structure without the need for down
conductors.

 Warning
 Warning
 Warning
High mechanical stress, high ambient temperatures or immersion into fluids can
cause leakage, fire or explosions of the batteries.
Precautions:
Protect the batteries from mechanical influences and high ambient temperatures. Do
not drop or immerse batteries into fluids.
If battery terminals come in contact with jewellery, keys, metallised paper or other
metals, short circuited battery terminals can overheat and cause injury or fire, for
example by storing or transporting in pockets.
Precautions:
Make sure that the battery terminals do not come into contact with metallic objects.
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna to vehicles or transporters poses the risk
of the equipment being broken by mechanical influence, vibration or airstream. This
may result in accident and physical injury.
