Leica TPS700 Series Field Manual - Surveying Equipment

80On TC(R)700auto instrumentsfine aiming can be automatedusing ATR (Automatic TargetRecognition), if the targets havereflectors placed on them.Only the first measurement toeach target point has to be made,the rest of the measurements areperformed automatically by theprogram.At least two complete sets ofmeasurements in face I and faceII must be made for the requiredcalculations. The sets of anglesprogram saves the position ofeach target point, thecorresponding EDM-mode, thereflector height, the type of prism,the additive constant and theATR-status.All this data is used to completeall the further measurementscarried out by the program.The maximum amount ofmeasuremements that can bemade and saved depend on thememory capacity of theinstrument. However only the first64 measurements made in twofaces are used for thecalculations. For example 16 setsof 4 target points or 8 sets of 8target points, etc.The storage capacity ofthe instrument's memoryspace is limited to about8000 measurements.
