Setup step-by-step
Level up with the
electronic level
step-by-step
The electronic level can be used to precisely level up the instrument using the foot-
screws of the tribrach.
1. Extend the tripod legs to allow for a comfortable working posture. Position the
tripod over the marked ground point, centring it as best as possible.
2. Fasten the tribrach and instrument onto the tripod.
3. Turn on the instrument, and, if tilt correction is set to On, the laser plummet will
be activated automatically, and the Level & Plummet screen appears. Other-
wise, press the FNC/Favourites key from within any program and select Level &
Plummet.
4. Move the tripod legs (1) and use the tribrach footscrews (6) to centre the
plummet (4) over the ground point.
5. Adjust the tripod legs (5) to level the circular level (7).
6. By using the electronic level, turn the tribrach footscrews (6) to precisely level
the instrument. Refer to "Level up with the electronic level step-by-step".
7. Centre the instrument precisely over the ground point by shifting the tribrach
on the tripod plate (2).
8. Repeat steps 6. and 7. until the required accuracy is achieved.

1. Turn the instrument until it is parallel to two footscrews.
2. Centre the circular level approximately by turning the footscrews of the tribrach.
3. Turn on the instrument, and, if tilt correction is set to On, the laser plummet will
be activated automatically, and the Level & Plummet screen appears. Otherwise,
press the FNC/Favourites key from within any program and select Level &
Plummet.
The bubble of the electronic level and the arrows for the rotating direction
of the footscrews only appear if the instrument tilt is inside a certain level-
ling range.
4. Centre the electronic level of the first axis by
turning the two footscrews. Arrows show
the direction of rotation required. The first
axis is levelled, when the bubble is exactly
between the squared brackets [] of the
single axis bubble tube.
When levelled correctly, checkmarks are displayed. For the Color&Touch
display only: If the instrument is not levelled to one axis, then the icons for
the single axis bubble tube and the circular bubble are framed red, else
they are black.
