9.3 Distance and Angle Measurement
· KTS-440 allows to do angle measurement and distance measurement at the same time.
· When recording measurement data, see “17. Recording Distance Measurement Data”.
· Check the following once more before measuring a distance:
1 The KTS-440 is set up correctly over the surveying point.
2 The battery is full charged.
3 The horizontal and vertical circle indexing is completed.
4 The parameters are set in conformity with measurement conditions.
5 The atmospheric correction factor has been set, the prism constant correction value has
been set, the distance measurement mode has been selected.
6 The center of the target is correctly sight, the light intensity of the returned signal is
sufficiently high.
PROCEDURE S/H/V selection and distance measurement
Operating Procedure Operation Display
⑴ In the first page of MEAS Mode, press SHV,
to select the desired distance mode.
Each time SHV is pressed, the distance
measurement mode changes.
S: slope distance
H: horizontal distance
V: height difference
