Geo 7 handheld safety information

Charging the battery

To charge the handheld’s battery, use only the following authorized Trimble accessories:

l

the Geo 7 series AC power adaptor (PN {xxxxx-xx}) with the correct international plug converter
for your region

l

the Geo 7 series 12V DC poweradapter when charging from a 12V vehiclePN {xxxxx-xx}

l

another Trimble branded AC or DC power adaptor designed and approved to work the Geo 7
handheld

Using any other AC adaptor can damage the handheld and may void your warranty. Do not use the
AC adaptor with any other product.

For more information, see Charging the battery, page 16.

WARNING - To use power adaptors safely:

- Ensure the input voltage on the adaptor matches the voltage and frequency in your location.

- Make certain that the adaptor has prongs compatible with your outlets.

- Do not use the adaptor in wet outdoor areas .

- Unplug the AC adaptor from power when not in use.

- Do not short the output connector.

- Be aware that there are no user-serviceable parts in this product.

- If the adaptor becomes damaged, replace it with a new Trimble adaptor.

Exposure to radio frequency radiation from Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
transmitters

The Geo 7 series is approved as a portable device with respect to Radio Frequency (RF) exposure
compliance. The radiated output power of the internal wireless radio transmitters is less than 100
milliwatt, which results in exposure levels far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, even
when operated in close proximity to the body. The internalwireless radios operate within guidelines
found in international radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, which reflect the
consensus of the international scientific community. Trimble therefore believes the internal wireless
radios are safe for use by users. The level of electromagnetic energy emitted is hundreds of times
lowerthan the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones.
However, the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some situations or environments, such as
on aircraft. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask for authorization before
turning on the wireless radios.

Recommended GNSS settings for maximum precision

The following table lists some of the factors that affect the precision of your data, and describes how
to minimize the effect of atmosphericinterference and poor satellite geometry.

Multipath

geometry

sight between the GNSS receiver and
satellites is partially or fully blocked by
obstructions such as buildings, trees,
or land masses. The effect of satellite
shadow is a reduction in the number of
satellites that the receiver is able to
track.

In general, the quality of your data
increases with the number of satellites
being used to calculate the position.

Multipath is when GNSS satellite signals
are reflected off nearby objects, such
as buildings or cars, causing an
erroneous signal to be received by the
GNSS antenna. This can cause errors of
several meters.

Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is a measure
of the strength of the satellitesignal
relative to the background noise. GNSS
quality degrades as the signal strength
decreases. Weak signals may be caused
by signals coming through vegetation,
multipath signals, or low satellite
elevation.

Dilution of Precision (DOP) is a measure
of the quality of GNSS positions, based
on the spread (geometry) of the
satellites in the sky that are used to

improve satellite geometry and
thereby improve accuracy.

Use the Floodlight satellite shadow
reduction technology option. See GNSS

receiver options, page 74.

Ensure the integrated GNSS receiver
gets a clear view of the sky as possible.
Keep your body mass as far from the
receiver as practical and do not crowd
over the handheld.

Use an external antenna if needed to
elevate the position of the antenna.

To reduce multipath, where possible
collect data in an open environment
away from large reflective surfaces and
with a clearview of the sky.

Use the Floodlight technology option
to increase the total number of
satellites visible to the receiver, and
reduce the risk of multipath affecting
your solution. See

options, page 74

Use smart settings with Trimble field
software to allow the receiver to
determine maximum precision
positions regardless of available
satellite signal strength. For more
information, refer to the section Using

Smart Settings in the TerraSync
Software Getting Started Guide.

Use the Floodlight technology option

information, refer to the section Using

Software Getting Started Guide.

Use the Floodlight technology option
to increase the total number of
satellites that the receiver can track,
and reduce the risk of poor satellite
geometry affecting your solution. See

GNSS receiver options, page 74.

Satellite elevation When a satellite is low on the horizon,

satellite signals must travel farther
through the atmosphere. This results in
a lower signal strength and delayed
reception by the GNSS receiver, which
can cause errors in calculating the
position.

Occupation time at
a point

Occupation time is the time spent at a
point logging GNSS positions.

Use smart settings with Trimble field
software to allow the receiver to
determine maximum precision
positions regardless of available
satellite elevation. For more
information, refer to the section Using

Smart Settings in the TerraSync
Software Getting Started Guide.

Use the Floodlight technolgy option to
increase the total number of satellites
that the receiver can track, and the
likelihood of being able to track more
satellites at higher elevation. See GNSS

receiver options, page 74.

For point features, remain at the
feature and log a number of GNSS
positions to obtain an averaged
position.

When collecting line and areafeatures,
collect them using averaged vertices.
