4. ON-DEMAND REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
However, the time limit for Turning is 60 seconds from the start of Turning operation and if the
operation exceeds this time limit, an error occurs.
Using the total station guide light when performing Turning operation allows the operator to confirm
whether or not the total station has correctly located the Remote Controller laser beam. When a
work site contains highly reflective surfaces it is recommended that measurement is performed
using the guide light. If the total station has completed Turning operation pointing at the Remote
Controller, both the red and green guide lights are visible from the position of the Remote Controller.
There are some models which do not have the guide light.
For the total station guide light, see the Operator’s Manual for your total station.
With data collectors it is possible to specify the rotation direction for Turning operation before
performing distance measurement.
For operation procedure, see the operator's manual for your data collector.
Height difference and slope distance
The maximum measuring range depends on the height difference between the total station and
the Remote Controller.
The shaded area in the graph below represents the measurement range when set to Far Mode.
