Description
Selectable list
Target names as configured in the Targets
panel. Allows the measurements of distances
to a prism or a tape.
Any surface
To measure without reflector.
Display only
The additive constant for the selected prism
as stored in the software.
Display only
The current additive constant.
Manually
Measurements are done without any auto-
mation. ATRplus search and/or ATRplus
measurement are not performed.
Automatic
Positioning to static prisms. The ATRplus sen-
sor is used for measurements to static
prisms. If needed, an ATRplus measurement
or ATRplus search is performed after pressing
Measure or Distance.
With lock
The instrument locks onto and follows the
moving prism. The ATRplus sensor is used to
follow moving prisms and to find prisms after
loss of lock. Depending on the setting for
Measure distance, single or continuous
measurements are performed. Unavailable
for SmartStation.
Once
When a single measurement with high preci-
sion is required.
Once & fast
When a single measurement is required but
the time to survey must be minimised. The
highest accuracy is of less importance.
Use this setting for example when perform-
ing, "typical" topographical surveys.
Continu-
When continuous distance measurements are
ously
required.
Performs a linear interpolation between the
previous and following angle measurement,
based on the timestamp of the EDM meas-
urement. Using this interpolation procedure,
a higher accuracy for all dynamic applications
is possible.
Repeatedly
When an average of several measurements is
& average
required.
Repeats measurements in standard measur-
ing mode. The average distance of Number
of distances and the standard deviation for
the averaged distance are calculated.
Use this setting for example when perform-
ing cadastral survey where rigid guidelines
must be followed.
