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 electronic 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 the product by handing it over to a designated
collection point for the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment (hereinafter
referred to as “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.

2. LD6 OPERATION
The controls for working with the LD6 are all available via the touch screen front panel.
Use the LD6 touch screen to configure the unit.
LD6 IMU
Description
The LD6 Integrated Mobile Unit (IMU) is used offshore on vessels to provide high precision
Satellite Positioning Services from VERIPOS.
The LD6 can optionally be equipped to run Verify QC software or the Orion DP software.
It can be fitted with modules to receive the following;
GNSS satellite positioning data
L-Band satellite positioning augmentation data from geostationary satellite
transmissions
Optional MF Beacon positioning augmentation data
Optional UHF positioning augmentation data
LD6 IMU’s on this software version must have a minimum of 4GB RAM fitted.
The LD6 supports all VERIPOS position augmentation data services.
The LD6 supports switching between high accuracy PPP solutions (subject to settling
before position is output).
When configured the LD6 automatically selects the best available solution for output, with
automatic fall-back to the next best solution.
Multiple messages are supported with configurable outputs of position data from the ports
in NMEA format (V3).
For timing, a ZDA message can be output for use with 1PPS output.
The LD6 supports RS 232 and 422 output from galvanic isolated ports and output to LAN.

2.1 VARIANTS
All LD6 on software version 101 are supplied with a NovAtel OEM615 GNSS receiver card
fitted are capable of providing a corrected solution in NMEA format. NovAtel OEM615
GNSS cards are delivered with GPS and GLONASS tracking permissions meaning any
LD6’s will be capable of computing GPS+GLONASS solutions (provided the LD6 is enabled
on an appropriate VERIPOS service).
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.
The diagram below shows details the available LD6 variants. This manual covers the
use of the ‘B’ variant.
An on-screen icon for each receiver card will only be shown when the LD6 has that
particular receiver card installed.
For further information regarding the NovAtel OEM 615 capabilities and guidance on
checking the model of GNSS card fitted, please refer to Section 2.6.1.

2.2 DO’S AND DON’TS FOR LD6
DO’s
Do use Shutdown control (in the Actions menu) for the LD6 BEFORE turning off
the power. Wait until the LD6 screen is blank before disconnecting power.
Do take care not to obstruct the side ventilation panels for the fan assisted cooling
tunnel.
Do only connect the LAN Crossover network adapter (where required) to an LD6
LAN port. The adapter wiring is not compatible with serial COM ports.
Do connect external monitor (where required) to the rear VGA connector prior to
switching on the LD6. If a monitor is connected after LD6 is switched on, it will not
be detected.
DON’TS
Don’t load software onto the LD6 not issued from VERIPOS e.g. as part of the LD6
build. Doing so could seriously compromise system performance.
Don’t insert USB memory device unless first scanned with up to date virus scanning
software.
Don’t activate the pin reset buttons on the rear of the unit unless directed by a
VERIPOS representative.
Don’t remove the QC dongle when using the Verify QC software is running on-
board the LD6.
Don’t use a pen or any other sharp object to operate the touch screen as this could
cause damage.

LD6 rear panel connections
Previously, a GA-530 GNSS antenna may have been supplied if GLONASS was not
required. The V460 is the standard antenna currently supplied for GNSS signals on an
LD6 regardless of whether GLONASS is required or not.
The Video out connection is only used with Verify-QC and Orion software.
If using a combined L-BAND / GNSS antenna (e.g. V460) connect it to the input to the L-
BAND receiver card. Remove the terminator from the RF out of the L-BAND card and link
the GNSS card RF in to the L-BAND RF out connector, using the lead which is supplied.
