IKE 4 tripod
Your device is designed to be used with the IKE 4
tripod, which provides a stable platform to obtain
the most accurate results when measuring objects
such as target poles and wires. The tripod has a
low magnetic signature that will not affect the IKE
device’s compass, which helps provide accurate
measurements.
Important: Tripods other than the IKE tripod will likely
produce less accurate results than the IKE tripod.
