Setting up the SiteVision Hardware
You can use the SiteVision app on the following Trimble hardware devices:
- Trimble TSC7 controller / Trimble Ranger 7 data collector / Spectra Geospatial Ranger 7 data controller
- Trimble T7 tablet / Trimble Yuma 7 tablet computer
You must connect the device to one of the following Trimble GNSS receivers, using Bluetooth wireless technology:
- R12i GNSS receiver, with tilt sensor technology
- SPS986 GNSS Smart Antenna; make sure the tilt sensor technology is enabled
The following sections explain how you must set up the device and the receiver on a pole.
NOTE – You can use unsupported devices; when you configure the pole settings, you must select the Custom Mount option, and manually define camera offsets.
Use the TSC7 / Ranger 7 pole mount accessory (part number 121349-01-1 or 121349-01-HH) to attach the device to the pole.
The pole mount consists of the bracket that attaches to the pole, and the arm that attaches to the bracket with the cradle that holds the TSC7 controller / Ranger 7 data collector. | |

TIP – To remove the device from the cradle, on the back of the locking mechanism pull the lever to release the device.
Two pole mount accessories are supported for the T7 tablet / Yuma 7 tablet computer:

To use the Center Mount Quick Release pole mount:
|
|
To use the Offset Mount:
|
Mount the receiver to the pole (using the quick release adapter if required) , making sure the front panel containing the four indicator LEDs and the Power button with LED is facing you / the same way as the screen on the device you have attached to the pole.
To attach the quick release adapter
Push down the spring-loaded button of the quick release adapter and then align the white dots on the bottom of the receiver and the quick release adapter. Slide in the quick release adapter and then release the button.
Mount the receiver on the pole using the 5/8"×11 thread adapter in the base of the receiver, making sure the front panel containing the four indicator LEDs and the Power button with LED is facing you / the same way as the screen on the device you have attached to the pole.
NOTE – Trimble recommends that you do not use the SPS986 quick release with SiteVision, as it allows for a small amount of lateral rotation that can impact Camera Alignment.
See Connecting to the Receiver and Configuring the GNSS for details on connecting your device to the receiver.
