7.7 Setting up the tool
7.7.1 Setting up over a mark on the floor or ground using the laser plummet
The tool should always be set up over a point marked on the floor or ground so that in case of measurement deviations
it is possible to fall back on the data for the station or orientation point.
The tool features a laser plummet that is switched on automatically together with the tool.
7.7.2 Setting up the tool 9
1.
Set up the tripod with the center of the tripod head approximately over the point marked on the ground.
2.
Mount the tool on the tripod by tightening the tripod screw and then switch the tool on.
3.
Move two of the tripod legs with your hands until the laser beam strikes the mark on the ground.
NOTE Take care to ensure that the tripod head remains approximately horizontal.
4.
Then press the points of the tripod legs into the ground by applying pressure with your foot.
5.
Adjust the footscrews to eliminate any deviation of the laser point from the mark on the ground. The laser point
must then be exactly in the center of the mark on the ground.
6.
The circular bubble level can be centered by adjusting the tripod legs.
NOTE This is done by extending or retracting the leg at the opposite side of the tripod, depending on the direction
in which the bubble is to be moved. This process may have to be repeated several times until the desired result
is achieved.
7.
Once the circular bubble level has been centered, align the laser plummet exactly with the mark on the ground
by shifting the position of the tool laterally on the tripod plate.
8.
Before the tool can be started, the electronic "bubble levels" must be centered by turning the footscrews so that
the tool is reasonably level.
NOTE The arrows show in which direction the tribrach footscrews require to be turned in order to center the
"bubbles".
The tool can be started once this has been achieved.
Cancel and return to previous
screen.
The total station goes into sleep
mode. When the on / off but-
ton is again pressed the system
goes back into normal operating
mode and returns to the place
it was at before entering sleep
mode.
Switch off the total station com-
pletely.
The total station will be restar-
ted. Any data not already saved
will be lost.
