5. V ANTI THEFT TECHNOLOGY Purpose The SP80 integrates an anti theft function to protect your equipment while it is left operating unattended This protection is intended for a SP80 operated as a base The anti theft protection will discourage the theft of an SP80 receiver by rendering it useless without the anti theft password It will also aid in recovery of a stolen receiver by sending messages to its real owner with the receiver s current location Enabling Disabling the Anti Theft Protection The anti theft protection is enabled and disabled from the data collector controlling the receiver If you use the Spectra Precision Survey Pro or FAST Survey on your data collector a user friendly interface will let you quickly enable or disable the anti theft protection see Using the Anti Theft Protection in Survey Pro on page 41 and Using the Anti Theft Protection in FAST Survey on page 44 If you are using other software please contact Technical Support for more information How the Receiver Operates With the Anti Theft On With the anti theft protection enabled and as long as no theft is detected the receiver will operate normally What the Anti Theft Protection Does Initially At the time the anti theft protection is enabled the last valid position computed by the receiver is saved in memory This position is saved as the anti theft position NOTE You won t be allowed to enable the anti theft protection until the re

9. Batteries Using External Power Batteries Vs External Power Source Charging Batteries Scenario 1 The SP80 can be powered by its internal removable batteries or by an external power source connected to its Power Data connector serial port A DC input Typically one 2 6 Ah battery provides approximately 5 0 hours of operation during an RTK survey If you insert two fresh batteries in the receiver you will get up to 10 hours of total operation the two batteries are used one after the other with smooth automatic switching from the low to the fresh one without causing operation disruption If an external power source is connected to the power data connector via the AC DC power block it is used in preference to the internal batteries When there is no external power source connected or if the connected one is not working then the internal batteries will be used When a UHF Kit option is used in a base receiver operated for a whole day s work without interruption Spectra Precision recommends that the receiver be powered from an external 12 V battery with higher capacity The operating time will depend on the battery capacity and charge as well as the output power level set for the radio transmitter See Completing Base Radio Setup With External UHF Antenna on page 50 e Remove the batteries from the receiver e Use the separate battery charger 1 and AC DC power block 2 provided The battery charger can accom

If you don t when Starting the next operating session on a new location an Anti Theft alarm will be raised mistakenly requiring that you enter the Anti Theft password on the data collector to remove the protection and stop the alarm which may be annoying and a waste of time As a Safety measure a power off confirmation message will show up if you attempt to turn off the receiver with the anti theft protection still active See screen in the left hand column Confirm power off by pressing the Log button otherwise press Scroll to reject the request so you can disable the Anti Theft protection using your field software before turning off the receiver Lost your Anti Theft Password If you lose that password you will be unable to remove the Anti Theft protection You will need to call Technical Support which will provide a specific password so you can disable the protection The Theft Alarm is Part of the Level 1 Alarms List The theft alarm is managed as a level 1 alert see Alerts on page 59 As such it is submitted to the same rules as the other level 1 alerts when it comes to issuing a notification email or SMS However in both Survey Pro and FAST Survey you are given the ability to configure the receiver to issue notification emails or SMS only for the theft alert Using the Anti Theft Protection in Survey Pro Power on the SP80 Wait until the boot sequence is over On the data collector launch Survey Pro and
