Introduction

Peg Survey

The application "Peg Survey" is
used to establish a forward peg
(point). It is used to control the
intermediate horizontal angle
between backsight and foresight
points. It also checks the
horizontal distances and heights
of the backsight and foresight
points. It computes the
coordinates of the foresight
point. "Peg Survey" allows users
to measure several sets in
different sequences. (The
quality of measurement is
controlled by the tolerances
which are set before starting
"Peg Survey").

Introduction
The application "FLP" is used to
mark a new line peg (Front line
peg). This application is similar
to "Peg Survey" and there is
only one set of measurement
required.
For a more detail explanation of
"FLP", please refer to chapter
"Peg Survey".

Front Line Peg

Introduction
"Grades" application is used to
mark gradelines along the side
walls of the mines (tunnels). It
allows users to input the slope
gradient and an offset
concerning the grade point. It
computes the stake out height
difference. The program allows
also to map the positions of the
grades points along the
gradelines.

Program content

"Mining Editor" (PC Program
Package) is a Windows-based
program used for the data
exchange between the TPS400
Series and the PC.

The installation program for the
"Mining Editor" can be found on
the CD-ROM supplied. Please
note that the "Mining Editor"
program can only be installed
under the operating systems MS
Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4.0,
WINDOWS2000, XP.
For the installation call program
"setup.exe" in the directory
"MiningEditor\Disk1" on the CDROM and follow the onscreen
instructions to complete the
installation.

The "Mining Editor" can be used
for the following purposes:
