PREPARATION

Face-left Measurement: Measurements made with the vertical circle positioned to
the left of the telescope eyepiece
Face-right Measurement: Measurements made with the vertical circle positioned to
the right of the telescope eyepiece
y Be careful not to catch your finger in the opening between the
instrument’s standard and the telescope when rotating the telescope.
y Mechanical constant error (except in some special cases such as vertical
axis error) can be effectively cancelled out by averaging the
measurement values obtained in face-left and face-right measurements.
Therefore, both measurement methods should be used whenever
possible.
