Safety Warnings

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the U.S. Government, which is solely

responsible for the accuracy and maintenance of the GPS network. Accuracy can also be

affected by poor satellite geometry and obstructions, like buildings and heavy canopy.

Introduction

EFIX F7 GNSS USER GUIDE | 2021-1 Page | 6

1 Introduction

The F7 GNSS receiver removes barriers to portability without sacrificing performance.

Featuring full GNSS technology, it offers best-in-class GNSS signal tracking even in a harsh

environment, enabling GNSS surveying beyond usual constraints. The F7 GNSS incorporates

the latest innovations such as an inertial module (IMU) providing automatic pole-tilt

compensation in a very compact design.

1.1 Safety Information

1.1.1 Warnings and Cautions

An absence of specific alerts does not mean that there are no safety risks involved.

A Warning or Caution information is intended to minimize the risk of personal injury and/or

damage to the equipment.

WARNING - A Warning alerts you to a potential misused or wrong setting of the

equipment.

CAUTION - A Caution alerts you to a possible risk of serious injury to your person

and/or damage to the equipment.

1.2 Regulations and Safety

The receivers contain a built-in wireless modem for signal communication through Bluetooth®

wireless technology or through external communication datalink. Regulations regarding the

use of the wireless modem vary greatly from country to country. In some countries, the unit

can be used without obtaining an end-user license. However, in some countries, the

administrative permissions are required. For license information, consult your local dealer.

Bluetooth® operates in license-free bands.

Before operating a F7 GNSS receiver, determine if authorization or a license to operate the unit

is required in your country. It is the responsibility of the end-user to obtain an operator's

permit or license for the receiver for the location or country of use.

1.2.1 Use and Care

This receiver is designed to withstand the rough environment that typically occurs in the field.

However, the receiver is high-precision electronic equipment and should be treated with

reasonable care.

CAUTION - Operating or storing the receiver outside the specified temperature range

will cause irreversible damage.

2 Getting Started with F7

2.1 About the Receiver

The new F7 GNSS receiver offers integrated IMU-RTK technology to provide a robust and

accurate GNSS positioning in any circumstances. Unlike the standard MEMS based GNSS

receivers, the F7 GNSS IMU-RTK combines state-of-the-art GNSS RTK engine, calibration-free

professional IMU sensor and advanced GNSS tracking capabilities. Survey projects are

achieved with high productivity and reliability pushing the boundaries of conventional GNSS

RTK survey.

The receiver can be used as the part of an RTK GNSS system with EFIX eField software.

Moreover, user can download the GNSS data that recorded in the internal memory of receiver

to a computer.

To configure the receiver for performing a wide variety of functions, you can use the web

interface by connecting the receiver with PC or smartphone through Wi-Fi.

2.2 Parts of the Receiver

The operating controls are all located on the front panel. Serial ports and connectors are

located on the bottom of the unit.

2.2.1 Front Panel

The following figure shows a front view of the receiver.

Description

Correction LED (Green)

•Indicates whether the receiver is

transmitting/receiving differential data.

•The green LED flashes once per second when

As a Base station: successfully transmitting

differential data.

As a Rover station: successfully receiving

differential data from Base station.

Satellite LED (Blue)

•Shows the number of satellites that the receiver

has tracked.

•When the receiver is searching satellites, the blue

LED flashes once every 5 seconds.

•When the receiver has tracked N satellites, the blue

LED will flash N times every 5 seconds.

Static LED (Yellow)

•Flash means static is on.

Power LED (Red)

•Under normal conditions red power light

•The power light shows orange when charging

•The power light shows green when fully charged
