Standing axis inclinationAngle between plumb line and standing axis. Standing axis tilt is not an instrument error and is not eliminated by measuring in both faces. Any possible influence it may have on the Hz-direction resp. V-angle is eliminate by the dual axis compensator.Line-of-sight error (Hz-collima-tion)The line-of-sight error is the devia-tion from the perpendicular between tilting axis and line-of-sight. This could be eliminated by measuring in both faces.V-Index (Vertical index error)With horizontal line-of-sight the V-circle reading should be exactly 90°(100gon). The deviation from this values is termed V-index (i).

Distance measurementA laser distancer (EDM) is incorporated into the instruments of the TPS800 series.In all versions, the distance can be determined by using an Laser beam which emerges coaxially from the telescope objective.

Measurements to strongly reflecting targets such as to traffic lights in Reflector EDM mode without prism should be avoided. The measured distances may be wrong or inaccu-rate.For applications without reflector a special arrange-ment of the EDM, and appropriate arrangement of the beam paths, enable ranges of over five kilome-tres to be attained with standard prisms. Miniprisms, 360° reflectors and reflector tapes can also be used, and measurement is also possible without a reflector.

When a distance measurement is trig-gered, the EDM measures to the object which is in the beam path at that moment.

When using the GEB121 battery, remove the spacer for the GEB111 from the battery compartment.

Charging / first-time use• The battery must be charged prior to using for

the first time because it is delivered with an energy content as low as possible.

• For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual to make 3 - 5 charge/discharge cycles.

• The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to +35°C / +32°F to +95°F. For optimal charging we recommend charging the batteries at a low ambient temperature of +10°C to +20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.

• It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recom-mended by Leica Geosystems, it is not possible to charge the battery if the temperature is too high.

PointsearchPointsearch is a global function used by applications to e.g. find internally saved measured or fixed points.It is possible for the user to limit the point search to a particular job or to search the whole storage.The search procedure always finds fixed points before measured points that fulfill the same search criteria. If several points meet the search criteria, then the points are listed according to their age. The instrument finds the most current (youngest) fixed point first.Direct searchBy entering an actual point number (e.g. "P13") all points with the corresponding point number are found.

Useful information• If the orientation is only measured in telescope

position II, then the Hz-orientation is based on telescope position II. If measured only in tele-scope position I or mixed, then the Hz-orienta-tion is based on telescope position I.

• The prism height may not be changed during measurements in the first and second telescope position.

• If a target point is measured several times in the same telescope position, then the last valid measurement is used for the computation.

If no orientation was set and an application was started resp. if in "Meas & Rec" [ALL] or [REC] was triggered, then the current Hz-direction and V-angle are set as orientation.

Reference Line/ArcThis program facilitates the easy stake out or checking of lines/arcs for buildings, sections of road, simple excavations, etc.

Reference LineA reference line can be defined by referencing a known base line. The reference line can be offset either longitudinally, in parallel or vertically to the base line, or be rotated around the first base point as required. Furthermore the reference height can be selected as first point, second point or interpolated along the reference line.

Procedure:

Important features:• The data of the alignment files has to be in the

data structure of Leica Road Line Editor as these gsi files have unique identifiers for each element which are used by the application program.

• The alignments must be continuous because geometrical gaps and chainage equations are not supported.

• The file name for horizontal alignment must have the prefix ALN, for vertical alignments PRF and can be 16 characters long, e.g. ALN_HZ_Axis_01.gsi and PRF_VT_Axis_01.gsi.

• The uploaded or created road alignments are permanent and stored even if the application is closed.

• Road alignments can be deleted onboard or via Data Exchange Manager in LGO Tools Version 5.0 or higher.

• Road alignments cannot be edited onboard. This needs to be done via Leica Road Line Editor of LGO Tools.

• Transit ruleIf you select Transit Rule the coordinate misclo-sure will be distributed with respect to the coor-dinate changes in Easting and Northing. Use this method if the angles were measured with a higher precision than the distances.

To begin a traverse you may:• Start a traverse without a known backsight• Start a traverse with a known backsight

If the coordinates of the start station are unknown, the Free Station application can be run before and by choosing "Start a traverse without a known back-sight" the system azimuth can be overtaken.If the start azimuth is unknown and a Helmert trans-formation is performed in the end, then also use "Start a traverse without a known backsight".

It is also possible to observe sideshots and check points during the traverse. However check points are not included in the traverse adjustment.

Reference PlaneThe Reference Plane application is used to measure points relative to a reference plane. It can be used for the following tasks:• Measuring a point to calculate and store the

perpendicular offset to the plane.• Calculating the perpendicular distance from the

intersection point to the local X- and Z-axis. The intersection point is the footprint point of the perpendicular vector from the measured point through the defined plane.

• Viewing, storing and staking out the coordinates of the intersection point.

A reference plane is created by measuring three points on a plane. These three points define a local coordinate system:• The first point is the origin of a local coordinate

system.• The second point defines the direction of the

local Z-axis.• The third point defines the plane.

Distancer, Measurements without Reflectors (RL mode)The EDM module built into the product produces a visible laser beam which emerges from the tele-scope objective.

The laser product described in this section, is classi-fied as laser class 3R in accordance with:

• IEC 60825-1 (2007-03): "Safety of laser products"

Class 3R laser products:Direct intrabeam viewing may be hazardous (low-level eye hazard), in particular for deliberate ocular exposure. The risk of injury for laser class 3R prod-ucts is limited because of:a) unintentional exposure would rarely reflect

worst case conditions of (e.g.) beam alignment with the pupil, worst case accommodation,

b) inherent safety margin in the maximum permis-sible exposure to laser radiation (MPE),

Safety Directions
� WarningPotential hazards are not only related to direct

beams but also to reflected beams aimed at reflecting surfaces such as prisms, windows, mirrors, metallic surfaces etc.Precautions:Do not aim at areas that are essentially reflective, such as a mirror, or which could emit unwanted reflections.Do not look through or beside the optical sight at prisms or reflecting objects when the laser is switched on, in laser pointer or distance measure-ment mode. Aiming at prisms is only permitted when looking through the telescope.
