I'd like to add a couple spare cables to our supply, and am hoping someone here can lead me to a new cable vendor. I believe the cable # is: CA-1371-10. From what I can tell, the cable also has a number of 66656 (possibly the OEM#?)This cable has a small 7-pin Lemo to connect to the receiver, a larger 5-pin Lemo that connects to the new radio (we're using the new ADL radios), and the connector to the 12v battery - I think it's called an SAE connector. This allows us to power both the radio and the receiver from a 12v base battery.
many thanks.
Try
I think they can make about any instrument cable. They make all Trimble cables and more.
thank you very much for the speedy reply!
seems the 66656 is the same as the CA-1371-10 - different builders.
perfect.
thanks again.
LRDAY beat me to a reply. I have used Western States and can whole heartedly agree with LR.
The 666 (devil cable) transfers power through the cable to the receiver. Western States will be able to tell you if the cable you listed allows power through. They are top notch..plus you cut out the middle man who has to turn a profit too.
Just do not try to use that ADL if the temperature is over 99°F, the following is from Pacific Crest web site:
•Under normal operating parameters, ADL Vantage Pro will continue operating at 35W as long as the air temp remains below 37°C (99°F)
•Hotter than this and the Automatic Power Management kicks in, reducing power by 30%
Sorry I lost the link to it, but I have saved it to help me return my ADL, as it does not work to the specs. shown on their web site/publications.
Pat,
I'm not sure I follow where you found the 99 degree info. I just checked the website, and the specs for the radio say 149 degrees. We have had less than stellar results with the ADL radio compared to the old HPB450 - but I thought that was common of the new narrowband radios regardless of heat.
You could probably search this site for Radios or ADL, I did not, but someone posted a link, and I downloaded the pdf on Aug. 1, but it is there. They suggest that you set the radio up in the shade, something we all look for when we decide where to set up a base unit. If you like you can email me and I will send a copy of the pdf. Pretty sure my contact stuff is up to date.
