The Next Steps
If the Receiver has been pre-pro-
grammed and the TR500 is not being
used, further guidance is available in
Chapter 3.
If the Receiver has been pre-pro-
grammed and the TR500 is being
used, further guidance is available in
Chapter 7.
If the Receiver requires programming
with the TR500, further guidance is
available in Chapter 5.
When Using the GAD31
adapter and GRT144 carrier,
ensure that the Antenna and GAD31
assembly slide down the full length of
the GRT144 stub. An incorrectly
mounted Antenna will have a direct
effect on your results.
In wet conditions the Re-
ceiver can be placed in the
transport case during use for extra
protection. Try to shut the case as
completely as possible.
If the Receiver is left in the
case during use in tempera-
tures exceeding 25°C, the lid should
be left open. Refer to Appendix A for
operating and storage temperatures.
Use an external battery such
as GEB71 to extend the
operating time past 6 hours.
