collimation, V-Index and Tilt Axis. When the defined period has been reached the adjustment reminder
message appears, after start-up of the instrument, 10 times, and then ceases for one month.
1.19 Downgrade-Function: Can I downgrade the instrument by software – is this true and how
does it work?
Yes you can downgrade the instrument types to the respective lower family, e.g. a TS09 can be
downgraded to a TS06 or TS02, and a TS06 to a TS02.
This feature allows the salespersons to minimise their stock level – so if you have a TS09 on stock, you
can demonstrate all the family members: TS02, TS06 and TS09.

Keyboard: Why is the optional first full numeric keyboard of TS02 more expensive than the second
full numeric keyboard?
The first full numeric keyboard is a major differentiation between the TS02 and TS06. The full numeric
keyboard option for TS02 provides the flexibility to offer a 7" or 5" instrument with full numeric keyboard
at a lower price than a TS06 instrument with 5" angular accuracy.

Demo License

1.21.1 What is it for and how does it work?

The free of charge demo licence enables all software options and allows the update of instrument
firmware during the validity of the demo licence - which is 1 year. The demo licence key includes a
voucher for a 90 days SW maintenance key which you should order right before ending the demo license
period – means before you sell the instrument or before the 1 year validity has expired. The licence key
file will be provided by E-Mail and includes the 90 days SW maintenance key as well as the licence keys
for the standard applications such as Survey, or Stake Out. By deleting the demo licence key (press
"EndDemo" button in the Licence key dialog) and uploading the 90 days SW maintenance key, the
instrument is in the same status as it was delivered from the factory.

1.21.2 How do I activate the demo licence key?

For instruments without a Communication Sidecover you can either enter the key manually in the licence
key screen (TOOLS LICENCE KEY) or upload them through FlexOffice (SW upload functionality). For
instruments with a Communication Sidecover you have the additional option to upload the key via a USB
memory stick.

1.21.3 How do I deactivate the demo licence key?

The following workflow is recommended to bring the instrument back to a status as delivered from the
factory:
1. Order "90 days SW Maintenance Key" free of charge. (Art. No. 769624).
You will receive a license key file, containing the 90 days SW maintenance key as well as the license keys
for all standard applications.
2. Set "End Demo" at the instrument (Tools_ License Keys _ F2)
3. Upload the key file you received when ordering the 90 days SW maintenance key.
4. Upload the latest firmware (available from the Leica website)
