So the EDM head becomes smaller, lighter and more convenient for survey. Continuous looking into the laser beam is particularly harmful and you requested to avoid being shooting directly to your eyes. Warning: Continuous looking into the laser beam directly is harmful.

Precaution: Never stare at the laser beam and collimate human beings. Reflector beam is effective measurement for the instrument.

Warning: When the laser beam is shooting at prism, mirror, metal surface or window, the reflector laser beam is also harmful to eyes. Precaution: Never stare at the locations with laser reflection. When the reflectorless function is enabled for EDM, never stare beside the laser beam or prism. Collimating the prism via the telescope unit is requested only.

Warning: Incorrect application of Class 3R laser equipment is very dangerous. The following is about the main part of relevant standard. Class 3R laser product is applicable for outdoors and construction site use, to measure, fix lines, level etc.

Only those users who are professionally trained and certified can install, adjust and operate such laser equipments. Relevant laser warning symbols should be easily identified within the operating range. Stop anyone staring at laser beam directly or using optical device to collimate the laser beam. In order to prevent the laser from hurting human beings, the laser beam should be blocked at the end point of working route. The working route of laser beam must be fixed higher or lower than the line of sight of human beings.

The unit should be well kept when it is not working. Uncertified user is not allowed to operate it. Stop the laser beam shooting at plane mirror, metal surface, window, etc. The harmful distance of built-in laser unit is m ft. When the operation is beyond this range and laser beam is weakened to Class 1R, direct staring at laser beam is less harmful.

Never collimate the objective lens direct to sunlight without a filter. Never store the instrument in high and low temperature, avoid the sudden and great change of temperature.

When not using the instrument, place it in the case and avoid shock, dust and humidity. If there is great difference between the temperature in work site and that in store place, you should leave the instrument in the case till it fits the temperature of environment.

If the instrument has not been used for a long time, you should remove the battery for separated store. The battery should be charged once a month. When transporting the instrument should be placed in its carrying case, it is recommended cushioned material is used around the case for support. Be sure to secure the instrument with one hand when mounting or removing from the tripod. Clean exposed optical parts with degreased cotton or lens tissue only! Clean the instrument's surface with a woolen cloth when finished with use.

If it gets wet, dry it immediately. Before operating, inspect the power, functions and indications of the instrument as well its initial setting and correction parameters. Unless you are a maintenance specialist, do not attempt to disassemble the instrument by yourself even if you find the instrument abnormal. Store of Instrument Cover the telescope well, place the instrument into the case with the vertical clamp screw and circular vial upward Objective lens toward tribrach , tighten the vertical clamp screw and lock the case.

Level and center the instrument precisely to ensure the best performance. Use the tripod with a special tripod screw. Operation Reference: Leveling and Centering the Instrument 1.

Attaching the instrument on the tripod Place the instrument carefully on the tripod head and slide the instrument by loosing the tripod screw.

If the plumb bob is positioned right over the center of the point, slightly tighten the tripod. Centering by using the optical plummet Adjust the eyepiece of the optical plummet telescope to your eyesight. Slide the instrument by loosening the tripod screw; place the point on the center mark of the optical plummet. Sliding the instrument carefully not to rotate that allows you to get the least dislocation of the bubble.

Completely leveling the instrument Leveling the instrument precisely in a similar way to Step 4. Rotate the instrument and check to see that the bubble is in the center of the plate level regardless of the telescope direction, then tighten the tripod screw hard.

Insert the bottom of the battery into the slot in the cover and put the top button of battery into the cover until it clicks. Recharge the battery or prepare a recharged battery for use. Stop operating and change the battery as soon as possible. Precaution: Check the battery power condition before starting the fieldwork.

Battery Recharging Battery should be recharged only with the charger NC coming with instrument. Remove on-board battery from instrument and connect to battery charger. When the indicator lamp on the battery charger is orange, the recharging process has begun and will be completed in about 6 hours.

When charging is complete indicator lamp turn green , remove the battery from the charger and disconnect the charger from its power source.

Otherwise, the instrument can be damaged. However, do not leave the charger plugged into the power outlet after recharging is completed. Complete discharge of the battery may shorten its service life. Reflector systems come with single prism and triple prisms, which can be mounted with tribrach on a tripod, or mounted on a prism pole. Unique Mini prism systems allow setups at corners that are hard to reach.

Loosen the tribrach locking screw in the locking knob with a screwdriver. Turn the locking knob about degree counter-clockwise to disengage anchor jaws, and take off the instrument from tribrach. Turn the locking knob about degree clockwise and tighten the locking screw with a screwdriver.

If there is parallax when your eye moves up, down or left, right, that show the diopter of eyepiece lens or focus is not adjusted well and accuracy will be influenced, so you should adjust the eyepiece tube carefully to elimate the parallax.

Be sure that the instruemt leveled. HT in the data collection mode The arrow indicates an item to enter. HT: 0. The characters are displayed in the bottom line. To be Data Collection mode or Layout mode directly from the normal measurement mode. The display shows tilt correction value. Select a mode and press ESC to return previous menu 4.

Laser direction is available in the reflectorless mode. Once received the relected light from the prism, the instrument will buzz. While the target is difficult to find, it will be easy to collimate with this function. If the constant of prism used is not —30, you must do the relative setting. Once the prism constant is set, it will be saved when you turn off the instrument. Measurement Mode. Once the atmospheric correction value is set the instrument will correct the distance measuring result automatically.

To ensure a precise angle measurement, tilt sensor must be turned on. The display can also be used to fine level the instrument. NTSR compensates the vertical angle reading due to inclination of the standing axies in the X directions. When the instrument is on an ustable stage or a windy day the display ofvertical angle is unstable. You can turn off the auto tilt correction function of vertical angle in this case. If through strict measurement ex. Point the telescope toward the light.

Turn the diopter ring and adjust the diopter so that the cross hairs are clearly observed. Turn the diopter toward you first and then backward to focus. Aim the target at the peak of the triangle mark of the sighting collimator. Allow a certain space between the sighting collimator and yourself for collimating. Focus the target with the focusing knob If parallax is created between the cross hairs and the target when viewing vertically or horizontally while looking into the telescope, focusing is incorrect or diopter adjustment is poor.

Refer to Section 7. Set correction for prism at If the prism is of another manufacturer, the appropriate constant shall be set beforehand. Refer to Chapter 7. The setting value is kept in the memory even after power is off. The average distance will be displayed. When presetting the number of times as 1,it does not display the average distance because of single measurement; Single measurement is set at the factory.

Make sure the mode display angle measurement. This setting is not memorized after power off. The difference between the measured distance and the input stake out distance is displayed. Place the prism at the same horizontal distance from the instrument as that of point A0 to measure.

When measuring coordinates of point Ao: Set the instrument height only Set the prism height to 0. When setting the coordinate value for the occupied station, refer to Section Measuring the distance or coordinate till P0 point, input oHD value as an offset value and measure P1 point showing draw in distance offset measurement.

The display shows distance or coordinate value until P0 point. Measuring will start. Three random prism points P1, P2, P3 on a plane will be measured at first in the plane ffset measurement to determine the measured plane. Collimate the measuring target point P0 then the instrument calculates and displays coordinate and distance value of cross point between collimation axis and of the plane.

Start measuring over again from the first point. The display returns to the previous mode. HT Prism height: R. In case the coordinate of instrument point is not entered, 0,0,0 will be used as the default for the instrument point. The instrument height will be calculated as 0 when the instrument height is not entered. The prism height will be calculated as 0 when the prism height is not set.

It is possible to retain the coordinates of the occupied point after turning the power off. F2 INS. It is possible to retain the height of target after turning the power off. In this mode, special measuring, setting and adjustment are possible. Vertical distance VD : To return to procedure 8, press the F2 V key. It is possible to enter the coordinate value directly or calculate from coordinate data file.

MLM Mode has two modes: 1. MEAS R. Press the F4 SET key. The horizontal dHD: 3. To measure the distance between points A and D, repeat procedure 12 to Known point data and coordinate data can use the coordinate data file. MEAS coordinate menu. HT enter the height. It is impossible to calculate what a mix of coordinate file data and measured data. The number of points used to calculate are not limited.
