Stonex R60 – User Manual 13
If plate level is not centered when leveling up with electronical bubble, probably it’s necessary to
calibrate it (see 5 Calibration).
Clicking on Tilt Method, it is possible to activate/deactivate the electronic compensator. This function
is very important to compensate the not perfect leveling up of the instrument, that could bring
errors in VA/HA readings. The enabling of this function allows to correct leveling up errors and
improve the quality of the readings.
There are three different options for this function:
a. Don’t Fix -> Electronic compensator not activated.
b. Single Axis -> Electronic compensator activated only in one direction.
c. Double Axis -> Electronic compensator activated in X and Y directions.
When the instrument is in operation, if the Double Axis tilt compensation is on, the instrument will
compensate and correct the VA and HA readings.
To avoid accidental tilting of the instrument which may affect the measurement accuracy, it is
recommended that the user always switches on the Double Axis compensation option during normal
operation.
4. Centering with laser plummet
The centering operation is necessary to align total station vertical axis to reference station point. To
make easier this operation, it is possible to activate the instrument laser plummet. In electronical
bubble page the option Laser Plummet can enable/disable/change intensity of the laser plummet.
There are five levels of brightness intensity, as visible in the image below.
To center the instrument, follow this procedure:
a. Slightly loosen the central knob, observe the relative position of the laser spot and the station
point, slowly push the tribrach to slide on the tripod plate until the laser spot is precisely
aligned with the station point, and then tighten the central knob.
b. Verify the leveling of the instrument on electronical bubble page.
c. If the instrument is leveling up the procedure is completed, otherwise repeat the steps
described in 3.3 Instrument setting up.
