4 Instrument Setup4.1 Instrument SetupDescriptionThis topic describes an instrument setup over a marked ground point using the laserplummet. It is always possible to set up the instrument without the need for a markedground point.Important features:• It is always recommended to shield the instrument from direct sunlight andavoid uneven temperatures around the instrument.• The laser plummet described in this topic is built into the vertical axis of theinstrument. It projects a red spot onto the ground, making it appreciably easierto centre the instrument.• The laser plummet cannot be used in conjunction with a tribrach equippedwith an optical plummet.• Refer to "TPS1200+ Technical Reference Manual" for additional informationon using the laser plummet.Setup step-by-step273SHIFTF126115 4515TPS12_019StepShieldDescriptionthe instrument from direct sunlight and avoid uneven temperaturesaround the instrument.1. Extend the tripod legs to allow for a comfortable working posture. Positionthe tripod over the marked ground point, centring it as well as possible.2. Fasten the tribrach and instrument onto the tripod.3. Turn on the instrument by pressing PROG for 2 s. Press SHIFT (F12) toaccess STATUS Level & Laser Plummet, activating the laser plummet.4. Move the tripod legs (1) and use the tribrach footscrews (6) to centre theplummet (4) over the ground point.5. Adjust the tripod legs to level the circular level (7).6.

STATUS Level & Laser PlummetUse the foot screws to move the electronic level to the centre.The level moves linear with the inclination values and .On the screen closest to the circular level, the electronic level moves downif the value in gets bigger and vice versa. If the value for gets bigger the level moves left and vice versa.The electronic level never disappears even if the instrument is not level.2. When the electronic level is centred, the instrument has been perfectlylevelled up.3. CONT (F1) to exit STATUS Level & Laser Plummet.For instruments with two displays:• The display closer to the circular level shows the movement of the electroniclevel in the same direction as the movement of the circular level.• The other display shows the movement of the electronic level in the oppositedirection of the circular level movement.Instrument Setup TPS1200+ 25
