Page 21: Guidelines For Correct Results
Guidelines for Correct Results Very short distances may be measured reflectorless in IR mode to well reflecting targets. Note that the distances are corrected with the additive constant defined for the active reflector. Distance measurement Zoom80_009 When measurements are being made using the red laser EDM, the results can be influenced by objects passing between the EDM and the intended target surface. -
Page 22: Check & Adjust
Overview Description GeoMax instruments are manufactured, assembled and adjusted to a high quality. Quick temperature changes, shock or stress can cause deviations and decrease the instrument accuracy. It is therefore recommended to calibrate the instrument from time to time. This can be done in the field by running through specific measurement procedures. -
Page 23: Preparation
Preparation Before determining the instrument errors, the instrument has to be levelled using the elec- tronic level. SHIFT (F12) to access STATUS Level & Laser Plummet, Level page. The tribrach, the tripod and the underground should be stable and secure from vibrations or other disturbances. - Page 24 <Aim Adjust: On> Includes the determination of the Aim360 Hz and V adjustment errors. It is recommended to use a clean GeoMax circular prism as target. Do not use a 360° prism. Aim the telescope accurately at a target at about 100 m distant.
