6 Care and Transport
6.1 Transport
The equipment is sensitive to shock, vibration, temperature, humidity and air
pressure.
When transporting the product onsite, always make sure that you carry the
product in its original transport container or in the Measurement Cart.
Never carry the product loose in a road vehicle, as it can be affected by shock
and vibration. Always carry the product in its container, original packaging or
equivalent and secure it.
When transporting the product by rail, air or sea, always use the complete
original Leica Geosystems packaging, container and cardboard box, or its
equivalent, to protect against shock and vibration.
Periodically carry out test measurements and perform the field adjustments
indicated in the Tracker Pilot Reference Manual and T‑Scan Collect, par-
ticularly after the product has been dropped, stored for long periods or trans-
ported.
6.2 Storage
Respect the temperature limits when storing the equipment, particularly in
summer if the equipment is inside a vehicle. Refer to "7 Technical Data" for
information about temperature limits.
After long periods of storage a field check or an adjustment (compensation)
of the product should be performed.
6.3 Cleaning and Drying
Use the cleaning tissues of the Measurement Camera cleaning kit to clean
the housing of the T‑Scan.
6.3.1 Cleaning Optical Parts
Optical elements, like the reflector, are sensitive to dirt, moisture and
mechanical damage, which may influence the following factors:
•
General functionality (loss of tracking)
•
System accuracy (angular and distance accuracy)
•
Intensity of laser beam (cover glass)
The cleaning intervals depend on the local conditions of use.
