Icon Description
fies Gë When a position status icon is displayed, the number of satel-
H8 Be? lites currently used for the position computation are shown.
If no position is currently available but satellites are being
tracked then the L1 and L2 values (GPS only) or the G and R
values (GPS & GLONASS) show how many satellites are
being tracked.
Ce The number of contributing satellites can differ from
the number of visible satellites. This may be either
because satellites cannot be viewed or the
observations to these satellites are considered to be
too noisy to be used in the position solution.
SÉ Ce The number of contributing GLONASS satellites
R= 0 could be zero if five or more GPS satellites are used
for the position computation. The processing algo-
rithm automatically selects the best possible set of
satellite combinations for the position computation.
A position computation with R = 0 is certainly within
the specified reliability.

4.1 Instrument Setup
Description This topic describes an instrument setup over a marked ground point using the laser
plummet. It is always possible to set up the instrument without the need for a marked
ground point.
Ce Important features:
e It is always recommended to shield the instrument from direct sunlight and
avoid uneven temperatures around the instrument.
The laser plummet described in this topic is built into the vertical axis of the
instrument. It projects a red spot onto the ground, making it appreciably easier
to centre the instrument.
The laser plummet cannot be used in conjunction with a tribrach equipped
with an optical plummet.
Refer to "TPS1200+ Technical Reference Manual" for additional information
on using the laser plummet.

Description
Shield the instrument from direct sunlight and avoid uneven temperatures
around the instrument.
Extend the tripod legs to allow for a comfortable working posture. Position
the tripod over the marked ground point, centring it as well as possible.
Fasten the tribrach and instrument onto the tripod.
Turn on the instrument by pressing PROG for 2 s. Press SHIFT (F12) to
access STATUS Level & Laser Plummet, activating the laser plummet.
Move the tripod legs (1) and use the tribrach footscrews (6) to centre the
plummet (4) over the ground point.
Adjust the tripod legs to level the circular level (7).
By using the electronic level turn the tribrach footscrews (6) to precisely
level the instrument.

Levelling the
instrument with the
electronic level
step-by-step
Instrument Setup
The STATUS Level & Laser Plummet screen can be used to precisely level up the
instrument with the electronic level using the foot screws of the tribrach. The longi-
tudinal and transverse tilt of the instruments vertical axis is graphically and numeri-
cally displayed.
Press SHIFT F12.
Step |Description
1. STATUS Level & Laser Plummet
Use the foot screws to move the electronic level to the centre.
Ce |The level moves linear with the inclination values <Tilt L:> and <Tilt T:>.
On the screen closest to the circular level, the electronic level moves down
if the value in <Tilt L:> gets bigger and vice versa. If the value for <Tilt T:>
gets bigger the level moves left and vice versa.
Ce |The electronic level never disappears even if the instrument is not level.
2. When the electronic level is centred, the instrument has been perfectly
levelled up.
3: CONT (F1) to exit STATUS Level & Laser Plummet.
For instruments with two displays:
e The display closer to the circular level shows the movement of the electronic
level in the same direction as the movement of the circular level.
e The other display shows the movement of the electronic level in the opposite
direction of the circular level movement.

Step |Description
1. A circular screw is located at one end of the clip-on-housing. Ensure that
the circular screw is in the unlocked position. Turn it anticlockwise, as
shown by the lock and arrow symbols on the screw.
2. Slide the clip-on-housing into position underneath the SmartAntenna
Adapter, such that the guide rails on the clip-on-housing and the guide
rails on the SmartAntenna Adapter are aligned.
Ce | Ensure that the connector located at the end of the clip-on-housing fits into
its port of the SmartAntenna Adapter.
3. Lock the circular screw by turning it clockwise, as shown by the lock and
arrow symbols on the screw. The clip-on-housing is now locked into posi-
tion.
4. Thread the antenna onto the clip-on-housing.

TPS Corrections, projection distortion (map projection ppm), the height above reference datum
GeomPPM page correction (height ppm) and an individual correction (individual ppm).
e The calculation of the map projection ppm follows the formula for the Trans-
versal Mercator Projection. The individual factors are: the scale factor of the line
of projection central meridian, Gauss-Kruger = 1.0, UTM = 0.9996, etc. and the
offset from the line of projection.
e The calculation of the height ppm is derived from the height of the instrument
station above the reference datum. Normally this is the height above mean sea

20.3.1 Overview of Devices
Description e A device is the hardware which is connected to the chosen port. Devices are
used to transmit and receive measurement data in TPS mode and GPS real-time
data in GPS mode. Devices are also used by TPS1200+ to communicate with
the RX1200 controller.
e Before using any device with TPS1200+ it is necessary to configure it and the
interface with which it will be used.
e Refer to "20.1.2 Configuring an Interface" for information on how to configure
interfaces.
e Refer to "20.3.2 Configuring a Device" for information on how to create, edit,
select and delete devices.
e Refer to "20.3.3 Controlling a Device" for information on how to configure
additional device parameters.
e Some devices may be used with different interfaces for different applications.
For example, a radio can be used for remote control with TPS1200+ but also to
send GeoCOM commands from a computer to TPS1200+.
