Stowing the G-858BP Console on the Pack Frame
For setup and transport, it will be convenient to slide the 858BP console into the space above the
battery box. Once the console is seated, tighten the vertical strap provided to keep it securely in place.

Cesium Sensor Adjustments
Next we will adjust the cesium sensor position. Note that the sensor may be mounted vertically, at
45º to the vertical and horizontally. Basically once you select the proper orientation for your area it will
always mount it in that manner whether on the backpack or on the staff. We suggest that you install and
use CSAZ, a companion program on the Magnetometer CD that shows you how you should mount your
sensor for any location on the globe. Suffice it to say that in the far northern and southern latitudes, the
sensor will be mounted at 45º, for the mid latitude zones including as far south as Northern S. America you
will mount the sensor vertically. In a narrow band about the earth’s magnetic equator (not zero latitude
necessarily) you will mount the sensor at 45º (tilted forward or backward for N-S operation, tilted to the
side for E-W operation) or horizontally with the top of the sensor tilted either North or South as you walk
the survey line. See CSAZ for more information
