Attention:
The DGPS SAAB R5 receiver is connected to the navigation system of RV Heincke and may only be used for scientific purposes in case of breakdown of the Trimble GPS receiver. In this case the serial connections of the GPS receivers to the scientific devices can be switch over by a manual switch on the bridge.
