10.2 Auto Pointing and Auto Tracking Function for Target Sighting/Measurement

The procedures for sighting to measuring distance differ depending on models, Auto Pointing model or Auto
Tracking model.
With the Auto Tracking function, the instrument searches for and sights the target. The instrument will then
follow that target as it is moved from measurement point to measurement point. The Remote Control System
is recommended for high performance Auto Tracking measurement.
PROCEDURE Measurement using Auto Pointing function only
1. Use the sighting collimator to aim the objective
lens in the general direction of the target. The
vertical and horizontal Jogs can be used for
precise adjustments of the instrument and
telescope.
2. Press [SRCH] in any Observation mode screen.
The telescope and top half of the instrument
rotate and target auto-search begins. When the
target is found, the instrument sights the prism
and stops.
