  • Page 76: Check & Adjust

    Check & Adjust Overview Description Leica Geosystems instruments are manufactured, assembled and adjusted to the best possible quality. Quick temperature changes, shock or stress can cause devia- tions and decrease the instrument accuracy. It is therefore recommended to check and adjust the instrument from time to time. This check and adjust can be done in the field by running through specific measurement procedures.
  • Page 77 Refer to "4.2 Preparation" to find more important points. During the manufacturing process, the instrument errors are carefully determined and set to zero. As mentioned above, these errors can change and it is highly recom- mended to redetermine them in the following situations: TS11/TS15, Check & Adjust...

These small deviations/ATR offsets, are calculated individually for each measurement and corrected electroni- cally. This means that the horizontal and vertical angles are corrected twice: first by the determined ATR errors for Hz and V, and then by the individual small deviations of the current aiming.
