The battery compartment is now accessible. Gently wiggle the mount and pull away from the CS15 to detach it. To do this, slide the red bar to the right in order to unlock the mount. To access this compartment, you will likely have to remove the mounting base first. The battery for the CS15 is located in a compartment on the back. The GS15 receivers can hold 2 batteries, which are stored below the antenna portion of the unit in the compartments on either side. Insert fully charged Lithium Ion batteries into all devices. The GS15 that has the memory card will be used as the base station (you may set the rover to write to the controller). Place the other SD card into one of the GS15 receivers. You do not NEED to record to the controller but it may provide redundancy. If you plan to record to the controller, place one SD card into the CS15 and secure the top back in place by tightening the screws about a half turn until they lock with the Phillips screwdriver end of the stylus.

*Only delete data from the SD card if it is your own work, or if the original owner has backed up the data.Note that OPUS will now take Leica RAW as well as RINEX. CCCCCC is the hour (two digit 24 hour clock) minute and second. The letters are AAAA = last four numbers of the unit’s serial number BBBB is the date in month and day so 0405 is the fourth month (April) and fifth day. Note: The raw data files have the following format AAAA_BBBB_CCCCCC with the suffix.If you are recording RINEX, the data will be found in DATA> GPS > RINEX. If you are recording Leica data (for example Leica MDX), the files will be found on the SD card in the DBX directory. These screws are spring loaded and only take about a half turn to loosen. The CS15 controller also holds a memory card, which can be accessed by using the Phillips screwdriver end of the stylus to loosen the screws on top of the unit. The GS15 receivers hold one memory card, which can be accessed in the battery compartment beneath the power button. Make sure memory cards have adequate space for your data needs. Instruments and their locations in the kit.

Confirm that cards are not locked via the mechanical locks.

Enough for each instrument (GS15 and CS15).

5 or more (two for each GS15 and one for the CS15, more depending on length of survey).
