33.11 Allocating Key Functions
It is possible to allocate the softkeys in OBS mode to suit the measurement conditions. It is possible to operate
the iM efficiently because unique softkey allocations can be preset to suit various applications and the ways
that different operators handle the instrument.
• The current softkey allocations are retained until they are revised again, even when the power is cut off.
• It is possible to register two sets of key function allocations: user setting 1 and user setting 2.
• It is possible to recall the softkey arrays registered for User 1 and User 2 as necessary.
• When softkey allocations are recorded and registered, the previously recorded key settings are cleared.
When a softkey array is recalled, the key array is changed to the key array that has been recalled, clearing
the previous key array. Be sure to remember this.
The following are the softkey allocations when the iM was shipped.
Page 1 [MEAS] [SHV] [0SET] [COORD]
Page 2 [MENU] [TILT] [H-SET] [EDM]
Page 3 [MLM] [OFFSET] [TOPO] [S-O]
The following functions can be allocated to the softkeys.
[MEAS]
: Distance measurement
[SHV]
: Switch between angle display and distance display
[0SET]
: Set horizontal angle to 0
[COORD]
: Coordinates measurement
[REP]
: Repetition measurement
[MLM]
: Missing line measurement
[S-O]
: Setting-out measurement
[OFFSET]
: Offset measurement
[TOPO]
: To TOPO menu
[EDM]
: Setting EDM
[H-SET]
: Set required horizontal angle
[TILT]
: Display tilt angle
[MENU]
: To Menu mode (Coordinates measurement, setting-out measurement, offset
measurement, repetition measurement, missing line measurement, REM measurement,
resection measurement, surface area measurement, set-out line, set-out arc, point
projection, intersections, traverse)
[REM]
: REM measurement
[RESEC]
: Resection measurement (The instrument station coordinate can be recorded on the
measurement result screen.)
[R/L]
: Select horizontal angle right/left
[ZA / %]
: Switch between zenith angle/slope in %
[HOLD]
: Hold horizontal angle/release horizontal angle
[CALL]
: Display final measurement data
[S-LEV]
: Return signal
[AREA]
: Surface area measurement
[F/M]
: Switch between meters/feet
[HT]
: Set the instrument station height and target height
[S-O LINE]
: Setting-out line measurement
[S-O ARC]
: Setting-out arc measurement
[P-PROJ]
: Point projection measurement
[PTL]
: PT to Line
[INTSCT]
: Intersections measurement
