1.5 Hazards of Use
DANGER
Risk of electrocution
Because of the risk of electrocution, it is dangerous to use poles, levelling
staffs and extensions in the vicinity of electrical installations such as power
cables or electrical railways.
Precautions:
▶Keep at a safe distance from electrical installations. If it is essential to
work in this environment, first contact the safety authorities responsible
for the electrical installations and follow their instructions.
WARNING
Distraction/loss of attention
During dynamic applications, for example stakeout procedures, there is a dan-
ger of accidents occurring if the user does not pay attention to the environ-
mental conditions around, for example obstacles, excavations or traffic.
Precautions:
▶The person responsible for the product must make all users fully aware of
the existing dangers.
WARNING
Inadequate securing of the working site.
This can lead to dangerous situations, for example in traffic, on building sites
and at industrial installations.
Precautions:
▶Always ensure that the working site is adequately secured.
▶Adhere to the regulations governing safety, accident prevention and road
traffic.
CAUTION
Not properly secured accessories.
If the accessories used with the product are not properly secured and the
product is subjected to mechanical shock, for example blows or falling, the
product may be damaged or people can sustain injury.
Precautions:
▶When setting up the product, make sure that the accessories are correctly
adapted, fitted, secured, and locked in position.
▶Avoid subjecting the product to mechanical stress.
8 Safety Directions

WARNING
Lightning strike
If the product is used with accessories, for example masts, staffs, poles, you
may increase the risk of being struck by lightning.
Precautions:
▶Do not use the product in a thunderstorm.
CAUTION
Unsuitable installation location
Installing near mechanically moving machine components may damage the
product.
Precautions:
▶Deflect the mechanically moving machine components as far as possible
and define a safe installation zone.
CAUTION
Inadequate steering if machine is defective
Beware of inadequate steering if machine is defective like after a crash or other
damaging events or alterations to the machine.
Precautions:
▶Periodically perform control measurements and field adjustments on the
machine as specified in the User Manual. While working, construction and
grading should be checked by appropriate means, for example spirit level,
tachymeter, before and after important measuring tasks.
Safety Directions 9

DANGER
Risk of being struck by lightning
If the product is used with accessories, for example on masts, staffs, poles,
you may increase the risk of being struck by lightning. Danger from high vol-
tages also exists near power lines. Lightning, voltage peaks, or the touching of
power lines can cause damage, injury and death.
Precautions:
▶Do not use the product in a thunderstorm as you can increase the risk of
being struck by lightning.
▶Be sure to remain at a safe distance from electrical installations. Do not
use the product directly under or close to power lines. If it is essential to
work in such an environment contact the safety authorities responsible for
electrical installations and follow their instructions.
▶If the product has to be permanently mounted in an exposed location, it is
advisable to provide a lightning conductor system. A suggestion on how to
design a lightning conductor for the product is given below. Always follow
the regulations in force in your country regarding grounding antennas and
masts. These installations must be carried out by an authorised specialist.
▶To prevent damages due to indirect lightning strikes (voltage spikes)
cables, for example for antenna, power source or modem should be pro-
tected with appropriate protection elements, like a lightning arrester. These
installations must be carried out by an authorised specialist.
▶If there is a risk of a thunderstorm, or if the equipment is to remain
unused and unattended for a long period, protect your product additionally
by unplugging all systems components and disconnecting all connecting
cables and supply cables, for example, instrument - antenna.
WARNING
Missing attention of operators or malfunctions
While steering or navigating the machine accidents may occur due to:
•The operator not paying attention to the surroundings (persons, ditches,
traffic, etc.), or
•Malfunctions (…of a system component, interference, etc).
Precautions:
▶The operator assures that the machine is operated, guided and monitored
by a qualified user (e.g. driver).
▶The user has to be able to take emergency measures, for example an
emergency stop.
WARNING
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna to vehicles or transporters poses
the risk of the equipment being broken by mechanical influence, vibration or
airstream. This may result in accident and physical injury.
Precautions:
▶Attach the external antenna professionally. The external antenna must be
secured additionally, for example by use of a safety cord. Ensure that the
mounting device is correctly mounted and able to carry the weight of the
external antenna (>1 kg) safely.
10 Safety Directions

Suggestion for design of a lightning conductor for a GNSS system:
1.On non-metallic structures
Protection by air terminals is recommended. An air terminal is a pointed
solid or tubular rod of conducting material with proper mounting and con-
nection to a conductor. The position of four air terminals can be uniformly
distributed around the antenna at a distance equal to the height of the air
terminal.
The air terminal diameter should be 12 mm for copper or 15 mm for alumi-
nium. The height of the air terminals should be 25 cm to 50 cm. All air ter-
minals should be connected to the down conductors. The diameter of the
air terminal should be kept to a minimum to reduce GNSS signal shading.
2.On metallic structures
Protection is as described for non-metallic structures, but the air terminals
can be connected directly to the conducting structure without the need for
down conductors.

2.2.3 Data Storage Concept
A special debug.def file is needed to record Leica GNSS raw data on the SD
card. Recording Leica GNSS raw data by a controller is not supported.
SD card: The iCON gps 70 GNSS instrument has an SD card slot fitted as
standard. An SD card can be inserted and removed.
Available capacity: 1 GB, 8 GB.
☞While other SD cards can be used, Leica Geosystems recommends
to only use Leica industrial grade SD cards and is not responsible
for data loss or any other error that can occur while using a non-
Leica card.
Unplugging connecting cables, removing the data storage device or interrupting
the power supply during the measurement can cause loss of data. Only remove
the data storage device, unplug connecting cables or interrupt the power sup-
ply when the iCON gps 70 instrument is switched off.
SD cards can directly be used in an OMNI drive as supplied by Leica Geosys-
tems. Other PC card drives can require an adaptor.
