Checking Instrument Setup Quality and Status

Following survey best-practice is the key to maximum system accuracy with Leica PaveSmart
3D. Poorly positioned or orientated instruments may have a serious effect on product
quality.
This procedure should be carried out regularly, ideally during breaks in machine operations,
e.g. waiting for concrete, to ensure no undetected movement of the robots has occurred
(e.g. due to excessive vibrations, bad sub-ground under the tripod, high wind, temperature
cycling effects etc.). This is also very important when the instrument has been standing for
a long time (e.g. > 2 hr) at the same setup.
