11 Machine Control
If you are operating at the total station, point it at the MT900 target on the machine. When the
machine connects to the total station, this speeds up the initial search and lock-on process for the
total station as it instantly “sees” the target and locks to it. The total station goes into Standby
mode for machine control and then it scans the machine list in chronological order until a machine is
found calling the instrument on one of the channels. The software now disconnects from the total
station. Move to the machine and initiate connection to the total station.
