1.5 LD6 SAFETY SUMMARY
This section summarizes safety guidelines when installing the LD6 unit.
1.5.1 Unpacking and inspection
Carefully unpack the unit and retain packaging to return the equipment where required.
Inspect the unit. If the equipment appears damaged return it using the original
packaging. Responsibility for damage is not accepted if the approved packaging is not
used.
Ensure all items and ancillary equipment is present. Contact your supplier or VERIPOS
where this is not the case (see contacts in the Contact information chapter).
1.5.2 Safety symbols
Please see section 1.6 Document conventions later in this manual.
1.5.3 Safety warnings
Always observe the following safety precautions:
Disconnect power from both AC and DC inlets on the rear panel to isolate
the equipment before working on it.
Never use a detachable AC/DC supply cord with inadequate rating.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by VERIPOS, the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Ensure adequate air circulation to ventilate the unit especially to the sides to
avoid heat build-up.
Only connect to an earthed power supply. The LD6 unit is class 1
construction and must be earthed.
Connect only to a power supply with a voltage corresponding to that marked
on the unit.
Always disconnect the LD6 and associated equipment from the mains when
connecting equipment, inserting/removing modules by removing the AC/DC
supply and ancillary connections before removing from the rack.
NOTE
There is a retention clip which, when used, prevents accidental
removal of the AC power plug.
The equipment is heavy: use handles where provided.
The equipment is for use in moderate climates only. Never use the
equipment in damp or wet conditions.
Avoid excessive heat, humidity, dust and vibration.
Do not use where the equipment may be subjected to liquids.
Always use the power connections supplied with the unit. See the Reference
information chapter for details.
Before replacing a fuse disconnect the equipment from both AC and DC
supplies.

1.5.4 Installation
Ensure the AC and/or DC power supplies are disconnected during installation. The
power connections are easily accessed on the rear of the unit (see Figure 4 in the
System Description chapter).
Ensure that the unit is secured within the rack by the supplied brackets and fittings.
Position the unit to ensure there is ample spacing for ventilation of the unit and access to
front and rear during normal operation.
Ensure all cables are routed safely to avoid sharp edges, bends and pinches.
Ensure only the specified cables are used for interconnection of the equipment.
Permanently connect the vessels’ protective earth to the protective bonding connection
on the unit.
1.5.5 Maintenance
Clean the unit using a clean dry cloth only. Do not wet the unit or allow moisture to
penetrate the unit. Do not use solvents to clean the unit.
Fuses must only be replaced using a fuse of the type and rating as marked.
If a replacement fuse fails: immediately contact your local service agent. Do not replace
the fuse with one of a higher value.
1.5.6 Servicing
This unit contains no user-serviceable parts. Please refer all repairs to a qualified
service agent or to VERIPOS. See the Reference information chapter for details.
1.5.7 Fault diagnosis
Follow the guidance in this document to correctly install the LD6. Where the LD6 does
not perform as indicated please first check all connections before contacting your
supplier or VERIPOS for assistance (contact details in the Reference information
chapter).

1.8 WASTE ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (hereinafter referred to as the
“WEEE directive”) places an obligation on EU-based manufacturers, distributors,
retailers and importers to take back electronics products at the end of their useful life. A
sister directive, RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) complements the WEEE
directive by banning the presence of specific hazardous substances in the products at
the design phase. The WEEE directive covers all VERIPOS products imported into the
EU as of August 13, 2005. EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers and importers
are obliged to finance the costs of recovery from municipal collection points, reuse, and
recycling of specified percentages per the requirements contained in the WEEE
Directive.
Instructions for disposal of WEEE by users in the European Union.
Products which have the undernoted symbol located on either the product itself or its
packaging indicates that the product must not be disposed of with other waste. Instead,
it is the user’s responsibility to dispose of their waste equipment by handing it over to a
designated collection point for the recycling of WEEE.
The separate collection and recycling of your WEEE at the time of disposal will help to
conserve natural resources and ensure that it is recycled in a manner that protects
human health and the environment. For more information about recycling centres,
please contact the local city office, the household waste disposal service or the product
supplier.
1.8.1 Replacement of Battery
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Where replacement of the battery unit in the LD6 is required, please carefully dispose of
the LD6 battery as hazardous waste in line with local regulations that apply.

2.2 EXAMPLES OF LD6 VARIANTS
LD6 models with a GNSS receiver card can deliver a full DGNSS
positioning system, capable of computing multi-reference DGNSS
and may use VERIPOS Ultra or Apex solutions capable of outputting
position data in NMEA format.
Variants with an MF module installed allow the LD6 to be capable of
receiving third party corrections directly from local reference
stations (where available).
Variants with UHF module where used, allow the LD6 to receive
corrections by UHF broadcast where available.
LD6’s running software version 50.1.0.7 and below (A variant) are fitted with Septentrio AsteRx
GNSS cards. The GNSS tracking permissions enabled on these cards may vary.
LD6’s running software version 101.x.x.x (B variant) are fitted with NovAtel OEM615 GNSS
cards, which are capable of tracking GPS+GLONASS GNSS constellations.
LD6’s running software version 103.0.0.8 and above (C variant) are fitted with NovAtel
OEM617D cards, which are capable of tracking up to 5 GNSS constellations.
The menu structure and general operation may vary depending on the LD6 software version.
Refer to the relevant LD6 Operations Manual for the software version running on your LD6.
