  • Page 5: Applications

    Applications: J2-2 optical theodolite is a kind of precision angle-measuring instrument. It plays a very important orle in geodesic survey and engineering measurement, therefore it is widely used in third-order, fourth-order trainglulation, building, roadwork, pipe playing, trnnelling, mining, cadastral survey as well as machine tooling and installation etc.

  • Page 10 Telescope: The telescope gives an erect image. The objective is constituted by a cemented doublet and a separate lens. The eyepiece consists of a pair of symmetrical lenses. This kind of construction gives excellent performance in image formation, brightness and definition. There are two optical sights on the top and the bottom of the telescope respectively so that they are used for the initial pointing to a target in face left as well as face right observations, when using electrical illumination for night or underground work,...
  • Page 11 The outstanding advantages of this type of axis system are small friction torque, good abradability. If the bush has been weared, it will still remain serviceable after renewal of ball bearing, and the change of temperature has little effect on the standing axis.
  • Page 12: Method Of Operation

    the effect of inclination of standing axis on the circle reading is eliminated. The press button on the left standard checks the functioning of the automatic index. On pressing the button, the graduation lines swing away from each other and then settle back smoothly to their original position.
  • Page 13 The instrument can be centred under a plumb bob suspended from a roof or ceiling point, by lining up the tip of the plumb bob with the small point an the centre of the optical sight. Before doing this the instrument must be leveled-up and the telescope set horizontal.
  • Page 14 direct sun rays as these may cause the bubble to run off. 2.2 Levelling up with the automatic index Proveded the instrument set-up is very stable, it is possible to level up with the assistance of the automatic index. With this method, levelling up to about ±1″ to ±2″is possible, it is especially useful for horizontal angle measurement with steep sights and for plumbing.

The dioptric scale now indicates the correct setting for the observer’s eye. Note reading for future setting. Slacken horizontal and vertical clamps.
  • Page 16 4.1 Horizontal circle reading Slacken horizontal and vertical clamps (26,15), turn the alidade. Point telescope to target means of optical sight (5) tighten clamps. Set cross hairs close to target by turning horizontal and vertical drives (22,23). Use double hair straddles the target if the target is small enough, otherwise use single vertical hair splits the taget.
  • Page 17 closed to prevent any accidental displacement of the circle. The micrometer knob (25) must now be turned until the graduation lines coincide exactly when the micrometer scale is shown to its end, no further turning is allowed in order to avoid damage to the scale. Note: The last turn of the knob should be clockwise.
  • Page 18 Turn the change-over knob anticlockwise to its stop until the white line is vertical, open and turn the illumination mirrors towards the light so that the field of view of reading microscope is evenly illuminated. The vertical circle is read in exactly the same way as the horizontal circle.

    L---rod section read on both stadia hairs K---multiplication factor K = 100 C---additative constant C = 0 6. Electric Illumination Where natural light conditions are inadequate for reading the circles, plug-in lamps are used to illuminate the display. When using electric illumination, the illumination mirror must be replaced by a plug-in lamp, and the lever under the optical sight must be pushed towards the telescope objective until it reaches its stop.

Note the position of the bubble. Bring the bubble to a point halfway between this position and the central position by turning footscrew C.
  • Page 21 Take the reading R. Take the mean as the correct value without the influence of horizontal collimation error, thus L – R – 180°= 2C. For angle measurement with J2-2 theodolite, 2C of less 12″ is usually acceptable. To adjust: The vertical hair is still on the target with the instrument in face left.

  • Page 24 theodolite is still in face left with horizontal hair on the target. Turn the micrometer knob and set the correct value 15′19″in example, against the index of the micrometer scale. Then turn the adjustment screw until the circle graduations coincide to give the full correct value 86°15′19″in the example. Close cover. Repeat observations and if necessary the adjustment.

    There is a bag of silica gel in the container. 3. If the J2-2 is to be used to the limit of its precision, the plate level should be protected from direct sun rays.
