USING SEQUOIA
Note: If Sequoia detects an SD card the shots are saved on this SD
card. If no SD card is detected, Sequoia automatically saves the shots
in its internal memory. Installing the protective lens
Installing the protective lens
Use the protective lens to protect the sensors during landing.
1. Insert the protective lens on the multispectral sensor.
2. Press lightly on the protective lens as far as it will go on the sensor.
Attaching Sequoia to a drone
Sequoia can be attached to all types of drones.
1. Select the sunshine sensor holder which is most suitable for your drone.
2. Remove the plastic film from the holder and stick the holder on the
back of the drone.
The holder must be positioned parallel to the drone (diagram A).

3. Insert the sunshine sensor in its holder.
To avoid distorting the data the sunshine sensor must not be
!
covered during photo shoots.
4. Insert the multispectral sensor under the drone, in the kit provided for
this purpose.
5. Connect the multispectral sensor to the sunshine sensor using the USB
host cable.
6. Connect the multispectral sensor to the drone using the USB device
cable.

Make sure that the Sequoia cables do not get caught in the drone
!
propellers during the flight.
Connecting Sequoia to a USB battery
You can use Sequoia without a drone. To do this you need a 2A USB
battery at least.
6. 1. Connect the multispectral sensor to the sunshine sensor using the
USB host cable.
7. 2. Connect the multispectral sensor to the battery using the USB
device cable.

Calibrating Sequoia
Before using Sequoia for the first time you must calibrate it. Before starting
the calibration, make sure that the two sensors are properly attached and
connected to the drone.
The multispectral sensor and the sunshine sensor must be
!
attached perpendicularly. It is recommended to calibrate the two
sensors at the same time.
Note: You can calibrate the sensors separately. However the
sunshine sensor must be connected to the multispectral sensor to
be calibrated.
1. Make sure that the Sequoia indicator light flashes purple (Diagram D).
