Installing the LineAR on the Tripod
Whatever type of tripod is used it must be mounted with the right orientation. This need that the
brass contrast block which is installed over the tripod mounting plate, is oriented to the North
with sufficient approximation. A mechanical or digital compass can be used to perform this task.
The LineAR comes with the plate for attaching the mount on the tripod but the plate must be
assembled on the tripod according to the instructions below.
The plate is shipped with the correct holes for mounting it on most of the tripods available on
the market. The following figure shows how to mount it on a T-Pod:
Place the plate on the top of the tripod and rotate it until the brass is aligned with one of the legs,
chosen arbitrarily. This leg will be designated the “North Leg” because it must be pointed to the
North to achieve a polar alignment. Attach the plate with the 3 screws provided for that
purpose.
