Point Numbers and Point Search

Letters from A to Z andspecial characters are

not incremented.

Point number is defined as thecurrent point number in allmeasuring dialogues. Thenumber at the end of the currentpoint number is incremented by 1.The +1 incrementation step isfixed. If at the end of the pointnumber there is no incrementa-tion, then a number is added afterit has been automatically saved.

Examples:Current pointnumber : 12AAfter saving : 12A1Current pointnumber : A999After saving : A1000

Individual point numbers

In the Measurement &Registering menus and in thepoint recording menu, it ispossible to switch between thecurrent and individual pointnumbers. (see FNC menu,"Insert").

TCA and TCRA instruments aremotorized and equipped withAutomatic Target Recognition(ATR) coaxially in the telescope.The guide light (EGL), mountedon the telescope, is optional.These instruments permitautomatic angle and distancemeasurements to normal prismsand reduce the tedium of precisevisual sighting to prisms.

Automatic Target Recognition (ATR)The prism is sighted with theoptical sight only. Initiating adistance measurement will turnthe instrument with the help of themotors to sight the prism-centreautomatically.The angles V and Hz aremeasured to the centre of theprism completion of the distancemeasurement.

As with all otherinstrument errors, the

collimation error of the automatictarget recognition (ATR) must beredetermined periodically (Referto chapter "Checking andAdjusting").

Reflected light or lightfrom an outside source

(e.g. head lights of a car) caninfluence ATR measurements.

21

Functionality

The built-in Automatic TargetRecognition ATR transmits alaser beam. The reflected light isreceived by the built-in camera(CCD). The position of thereceived light spot with respect tothe centre of the CCD iscomputed and the offsets areused to correct the horizontal andvertical angles. The offsets arealso used to control the motorswhich turn the instrument so thatthe crosshairs are centred on theprism.

In order to minimize the times formeasuring, the crosshair is notmoved to the exact centre of theprism. The offset can be up to5mm.Then the Automatic TargetRecognition ATR measures theoffsets between the crosshair andprism centre and corrects the Hzand V angles accordingly.

Therefore the Hz and V anglesare measured to the prism-centre,regardless of the crosshairpointing precisely to the centre ofthe prism.

22

If the offset is more than 5mmwhen the prism is exactly alignedand in faultless condition, theAutomatic Target RecognitionATR must be recalibrated. Ifexcessive offsets occurfrequently, contact your LeicaGeosystems agency.

This mode permits the automaticrecognition of stationary targets.

The observer must first use theoptical sight to target the prismapproximately so that it is locatedwithin the telescopic field of view.

When the distance measurementis triggered, the motors move thecrosshair close to the centre ofthe prism to make distancemeasurement possible.

The following functionsare valid only for TCA

and TCRA instruments.

23

Automatic Reflector Search

If the reflector is in thetelescope's field of view, thecrosshair is automaticallypositioned to the reflector when ameasurement is triggered. If thetarget is not within the telescope'sfield of view, an automaticreflector search is started

The shape of the search windowis rectangular and the definedarea is scanned line by linestarting in the center of thesearching window.

time with the CE key.

Repeated presses on the<RETRY> key triggers a

search procedure with everwidening field of view.

Useful Information

� If the orientation is onlymeasured in telescope face IIthe Hz-orientation is based ontelesope face II. If measuredonly in telescope face I ormixed the Hz-orientation isbased on telescope face I.

� The prism height may not bechanged during measurementsin the first and secondtelescope face.

� If a target point is measuredseveral times in the sametelescope face the last validmeasurement is used for thecomputation.

ApplicationsDepending on localsoftware versions the

contents of the displays (lines)described in this section candiffer. However, the function ofthe relevant display remains thesame.

Before starting anapplication, make sure

the instrument is perfectly levelledup and the station data iscorrectly set.

Introduction

Button functions

Triggers a distancemeasurement.

Measures and recordsthe measured values.

When starting anapplication the dialog with

the Start-up programs is calledautomatically (see section "Start-Up Programs").

With these onboard applicationsthe functionality of the TC(R)702/703/705(auto) instruments isimproved considerably.As a result, the functionality isextended and the daily surveyingfieldwork is made easier. By usinginternally recorded values the useris mainly protected from enteringincorrect data. Points with givencoordinates as well as measuredpoints can be used within theprograms.

The following measurementssequences to target points arepossible:1. Hz- and V-angles only.

2. Distance and Hz- and V-angle.

3. Hz- and V-angles to somepoint(s) and Hz- and V-angleplus distance to other point(s).

Free Station

The application "Free Station" isused to determine the instrumentposition from measurements to aminimum of two known points anda maximum of five known points.It supports measurements topoints using either distances andHz- and V-angles (typical 2 pointresection) or angles only (typical3 point resection) or acombination of angles anddistances to different points.Only for TC(R) auto instruments.

51

Measurements and results(position, standard deviations andresiduals) are always recorded tothe internal memory, provided theinternal memory is set as the DataStorage media.

All displays shown areexamples. Local software

versions may differ from the basicversion.

The final computed results areEasting, Northing and Height ofthe present instrument station,including the instruments Hz-circle orientation.Standard deviations and residualsfor accuracy assessments areprovided additionally.

52

Measurement restrictions:

� 2 face measurementsFor measurements in 2 faces,the reflector height and therefraction coefficient must bekept the same for both facesfor the same target point,although it is permissible tochange these parametersbetween different target points.An error message will begenerated if the reflector heightchanges between face I andface II while measuring to thesame target point.

� Target points with 0.000height

Target points with 0.000height are discarded for

height processing. If target pointshave a valid height of 0.000 m,use 0.001 m to enable it for heightprocessing.

The points can be measured intelescope face I or II, or a mixture(I + II), the sequence is of nosignificance. E.g. first point intelescope face II, last point intelescope face I + II, second pointin face I, etc.

Measurements made inboth telescope faces are

checked for gross errors toensure that the same point hasbeen aimed at.

If a target point is measuredseveral times in the sametelescope face the last validmeasurement is used forcomputation.

Measuring Facilities

53

The computation procedureautomatically defines the calcu-lation method, e.g. 2 point re-section, 3 point resection withangles only, etc�).If more than the minimumrequired measurements areperformed, the processing routineuses a least squares adjustmentto determine the plan position andaverages orientation and heights.

1. The original averaged face Iand face II measurementsenter the computation process.In case of multiplemeasurements to the sametarget point, only the lastmeasurement for each faceenter the computation process.

Computation Procedure

2. All measurements are treatedwith the same accuracy,whether these are measured insingle or dual face.

3. The final plan position (E, N) iscomputed from a least squaresadjustment, including standarddeviations and residuals for Hz-angle and horizontal distances.

4. The height of the station (H)including the standard deviationand residual is calculated fromthe averaged heights (based onthe original measurements).

5. The Hz-circle orientation iscomputed with the originalaveraged face I and face IImeasurements and the finalcomputed plan position.

This optional set of angles application is protectedby a license code.

It is used to determine angles to target points ofwhich the coordinates do not have to be known.As an option their distances can be measured, too.This program includes methods of testing andanalyzing measurements.

In this way, measurement data can be tested foraccuracy before leaving the current setup. With motorized instruments (TC(R)700auto) target

points can be aimed at automatically requiring onlyfine aiming. This prevents the selection of wrongtarget points.

Sets of Angles Measurements

Introduction

80

On TC(R)700auto instrumentsfine aiming can be automatedusing ATR (Automatic TargetRecognition), if the targets havereflectors placed on them.

Only the first measurement toeach target point has to be made,the rest of the measurements areperformed automatically by theprogram.

At least two complete sets ofmeasurements in face I and faceII must be made for the requiredcalculations. The sets of anglesprogram saves the position ofeach target point, thecorresponding EDM-mode, thereflector height, the type of prism,the additive constant and theATR-status.

All this data is used to completeall the further measurementscarried out by the program.

The maximum amount ofmeasuremements that can bemade and saved depend on thememory capacity of theinstrument. However only the first64 measurements made in twofaces are used for thecalculations. For example 16 setsof 4 target points or 8 sets of 8target points, etc.

The storage capacity ofthe instrument's memoryspace is limited to about8000 measurements.

81

The Sets of Angles appli-cation is designed to enableprograms 1 to 6 to be processedin sequence from the top down.

When one of the programs hasbeen processed, a [�] appears atthe front, with the exception ofthe configuration program.

Selecting Sets of Angles functions

Before starting the program"Define Targets" we recommendthat the parameters for the"Configuration" are defined first.

In this part of the program thepoint numbers of the targets andthe measuring sequence of thesubsequent sets ofmeasurements are defined. Amaximum of 24 target points canbe defined.

The desired point numbers canbe entered manually or read infrom measured point or fixedpoint data in memory.

Coding

109

Basically there are two ways ofentering codes and attributes intothe list or selecting them from thelist.

1. Directly in the measurementdisplay "Measuring &Registering" or in the"Surveying" application. Thesecodes are point referenced andare not saved right after theywere entered or selected butonly together with the nextmeasured point data. (ALL orREC-fixed key). The codeblockcontains the same pointnumber as the measurement.

Preparing a code listWith the computer program"Codelist-Manager", included inthe "Leica Survey Office"program code lists with up to ,200 codes with descriptions,attributes etc. can be preparedeasily and quickly, meaning thate.g. instead of Info1/ Attrib1, "Pkt-Art" may be defined. The definedtext is then display on theinstrument's screen when theapropriate attribute value isentered.

The program enables theassignment of so called quickcode numbers to the individualcodes.The completed code list can thenbe loaded into the "Data Ex-change Manager" (also includedin the "Leica Survey Office"program) of the instrument.

Using the quick code function, apredefined code can be calleddirectly via the numeric keypad onthe instrument. The code isselected by entering a two digitnumber, the measurementtriggered and the measured dataand code saved.A total of 100 codes can beassigned.

Each code can be assigned aunique one or two digit number inthe Leica SurveyOffice "CodelistManager".

Quick Code

If no numbers are allocated to thecodes in the "Codelist Manager",the code is selected inaccordance with the order inwhich the codes were entered inthe code list (01 -> first code inthe code list � 10 -> tenth codein the code list � 00 -> hundredth(and last) code in the code list.

Quick code function isautomatically activated,

when the cursor is on the<QCODE> button in the last line.

A two digit code mustalways be entered on the

instrument's numeric keypad evenif only a one digit code wasassigned in the Codelist Manager.For example: 4 -> enter 04.

116

Procedure1. Position cursor in the

"Surveying " or "Pointrecording" application on the<QCODE> button.

If there are any predefinedattributes in the external code liststhey must be entered at theinstrument by the user. Theattribute is automaticallydisplayed.

The quick code functioncan only be activated in

the "Measuring" and "Surveying"applications (if there is a code listin the memory).

2. Enter a two digit number on thenumeric keypad -> code isselected, the measurementtriggered and the measureddata and code saved.

The name of the selected code isdisplayed after the measurement.

With the "SurveyOfficeCodelist Managers"

external code lists can be createdand transmitted to the instrumentvia the interface.

150ATR collimation

To define the ATR collimationerror, a prism must be accuratelytargeted at a distance of about100 m. The target must lie within±9° (±10 gon) of the horizontalplane. The procedure isanalogous to that of determiningthe V-index error.

The two-axis compensator isturned off automatically whendetermining the ATR collimationerror.

(Available for TC and TCRautoversions only)

The ATR collimation error is thecombined horizontal and verticalangular divergence of the line ofsight from the axis of the CCDcamera. The collimationprocedure includes, optionally, thedetermination of the line-of-sighterror and the vertical-index error.The correction for the ATRcollimation errors is alwaysapplied regardless of the "ON/OFF" status of the Hz-correctionsetting.(see section "Anglesettings").

Possible Messages when Determining Instrument Errors

Messages Meaning Measures taken

V-angle cannot be used forcalculations ( check angle orface)

The tolerance of aiming was notkept or telescope face was notchanged.

The target point must be approx.horizontal (± 4°30).Message must be confirmed.

Beyond adjustment tolerances,old values are retained.

Calculated values outside oftolerance. Old values are retained.

Repeat measurements.Message must be confirmed.

Hz-angle outside of tolerance. Hz-angle in second face deviatesmore than 4°30 'from target point.

Aim at the target with an accuracyof at least 4°30'.Message must be confirmed.

Repeat measurement error! Measurement error occured (e.g.instable setup or time intervalbetween telescope face I and II istoo long).

Repeat the process.Message must be confirmed.

154

Messages Meaning Measures to take

Vertical angle not suited foradjustment.

The vertical angle may not deviateby more than +/- 10g from thehorizontal during calibration.

Adjust reflector height to enableapprox. horizontal sigthing.

No prism were found or theweather is bad.

This message may be displayedin bad weather (e.g. in fog) or ifthe prism is too far away.

The prism has to be aimed atmore exactly and themeasurement repeated. The ATRmay be switched off, too.

Several prism were found. Several prism are in the field ofview of the telescope during ATRsearch.

The target prism must beaimed at more exactly and themeasurement repeated.

Exact positioning is notpossible.

A runtime error while positioninghas occured. Heat flickering or aninstable prism location arepossible causes.

Repeat the measurements.

Instrument is turning. The instrument changes face andpositions itself automatcally on thereflector.

During this interval do not manuallymove the alhidade or the drives.
