Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 13 1 Introduction System diagram The system diagram shows the hardware that is used with the TS635 construction total station. Note – You must use the TS635 total station with tribrach W30 or W30b. 14 Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 1 Introduction Care and maintenance CAUTION – The battery pack contains a Lithium-ion battery. When disposing of the battery pack, follow the environmental guidelines as determined by law and/or local regulations. The TS635 construction total station is a precision instrument that you should store, use, and clean in an appropriate way. Storage • Do not store the total station in hot or humid locations. In particular, you must store the battery pack in a dry location at a temperature of less than 30 °C (86 °F). High temperature or excessive humidity can cause mold to grow on the lenses. It can also cause the electronic assemblies to deteriorate, and so lead to instrument failure. • When storing the instrument in areas subject to extremely low temperatures, leave the carry case open. • If you do not intend to use the tribach for an extended period, lock down the tribach clamp knob and tighten its safety screw. • Store the battery pack with the battery discharged. Environmental conditions • Do not leave the instrument in direct sunlight or in a closed vehicle for prolonged periods. Overheating the instrument may reduce its efficiency. • Sudden changes in temperature may cloud the lenses and drastically reduce the measurable distance, or cause an electrical system failure. If there has been a sudden change in temperature, leave the instrument in a closed carry case in a warm location until the temperature of the instrument returns to room temperature. • If the total station has been used in wet conditions, immediately wipe off any moisture and dry the instrument completely before returning it to the carry case. The TS635 construction total station contains sensitive electronic assemblies which have been well protected against dust and moisture. However, if dust or moisture gets into it, severe damage could result. • The carry case is designed to be watertight, but you should not leave it exposed to rain for an extended period. If exposure to rain is unavoidable, make sure that the carry case is placed with the Trimble nameplate facing upward. Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 15 1 Introduction Cleaning • Do not use organic solvents such as ether or print thinner to clean the non-metallic parts of the instrument, such as the keyboard, or the painted or printed surfaces. Doing so could result in discoloration of the surface or in peeling of printed characters. Clean these parts only with a soft cloth or tissue that is lightly moistened with water or a mild detergent. • To clean the optical lenses, lightly wipe them with a soft cloth or a lens tissue that is moistened with alcohol. Adjusting and tightening • When adjusting the leveling screws, stay as close as possible to the center of each screw’s range. The center is indicated by a line on the screw. • The reticle plate cover has been correctly mounted. Do not release it or subject it to excessive force, for example in an attempt to make it watertight. Reticle plate cover 16 • Before attaching the battery pack, make sure that the contact surfaces on the battery and TS635 construction total station are clean. • Securely press the cap that covers the data output/external power input connector terminal. The instrument is only watertight if the cap is attached securely, or when the data output/external power input connector is used. • The TS635 construction total station is not watertight when the data output/external power input connector is used. • Static electricity from the human body, discharged through the data output/external power input connector, can damage the instrument. Before handling the instrument, touch any other conductive material once in order to remove static electricity. • Be careful not to pinch your finger between the telescope and trunnion of the instrument.

Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 21 2 Setting up the Instrument Calibration button “Calibration on” light (0) Top edge of case Power jack Charge light (1) Charge light (0) “Calibration on” light (1) 5 V, 4 A Battery slot 1 Battery slot 2 Applying power Plug in the charger to the supplied AC adapter to turn the unit on. The power input must be 5 V with at least 4 A of current capability. Each battery may take up to 2 A while charging. Charging the battery Slide a battery into either battery slot to begin charging. The adjacent charge indicator will illuminate yellow when charging is in progress. The charge indicator will change to green when charging is complete. Take note of the following: 22 • Charger slots are completely independent so a battery may be inserted regardless of what is occurring in the other battery slot. • Charging may take 2-4 hours if the battery was normally discharged. • Charging may take up to 5 hours with a completely drained battery which has been stored for several months without use. Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 2 Setting up the Instrument • If the charge indicator(s) are blinking, there is a problem with the battery or with the charger. • Lithium-ion batteries should not be charged above 40 °C to 45 °C (104 °F to 113 °F). A blinking charge light may mean that the batteries are too hot for charging. Charging will resume after the batteries cool down. Conditioning / calibrating a battery You must calibrate the battery (“condition it”) once every 6 months or more often if required. Calibration ensures that the reported remaining battery charge is accurate. To start calibrating a battery, hold down the calibration button on the unit and then insert a battery. Only the battery that was inserted while the button is pressed begins calibration. During battery calibration, the battery will be charged, discharged completely, and then recharged again. Calibration should complete in approximately 17 hours. Do not cover the charger vents during a calibration cycle. • The blue calibration indicator light(s) blink slowly (on 1.5 sec, off 2 sec) while calibration is in progress. The charge light(s) may be on or off during the calibration cycle if the case temperature does not get too high. • When a calibration cycle is completed, the calibration light stops blinking but remains on until the corresponding battery is removed. • Case temperature: – The temperature of the bottom case may continue to climb to approximately 43 °C before temperature regulation is enabled to keep the case from becoming warmer. As the battery voltage drops, the case cools down and the automatic temperature limiting is no longer necessary. This minimizes the time required to discharge a battery. – If the case temperature continues to become too hot internally, even after temperature regulation is enabled, there is a secondary failsafe that aborts the calibration completely. If an abort occurs, the calibration light(s) blink rapidly and battery charging is re-enabled. Detaching the battery pack CAUTION – To avoid problems with the electricity supply, do not touch the contacts on the battery pack. 1. If the instrument is turned on, press [PWR] to turn it off. 2. Turn the battery box release knob counterclockwise, open the battery box cover and then pull the battery pack out of the battery box.

To sight the instrument: 1. 2. 3. Adjust the diopter: a. Aim the telescope at a blank area, such as the sky or a piece of paper. b. Looking through the eyepiece, rotate the diopter ring until the reticle cross-hairs are in sharp focus. Eliminate parallax: Diopter ring Telescope focusing ring a. Aim the telescope at the target image. b. Rotate the focusing ring until the target image is in sharp focus on the reticle cross-hairs. c. Move your eye vertically and laterally to check whether the target image moves relative to the reticle cross-hairs. – If the target image does not move, there is no parallax. – If the target image does move, rotate the telescope focusing ring and repeat Step 2c. Rotate the tangent screw. The final turn of the tangent screw should be in a clockwise direction, to align the target accurately on the center cross-hairs. Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 29 2 Setting up the Instrument Setting the measurement mode and preparing the target The TS635 construction total station has two measurements modes: Prism mode (Prism) and Reflectorless mode (N-Prism). To change the mode at any time from any observation screen, hold down [MSR1] or [MSR2]. Set the measurement mode depending on the target you want to measure, as shown here. Target Target settings Indicator on status bar Prism, reflector sheet Prism mode No sign Other, reflective materials Reflectorless mode In some cases, you can measure to another target that is not appropriate to the set measurement mode. Note – The TS635 Total Station is Laser Class 1 in the measurement function, and Laser Class 2 in the Laser Pointer function. Do not sight the prism when the Laser Pointer is on. Measurement with a prism As the TS635 construction total station is extremely sensitive, multiple reflections on the prism surface can sometimes cause a significant loss in accuracy. To maintain the accuracy of your measurements: • Use a prism with thin edges. Thin edges Do not use a prism with scratches, a dirty surface, a chipped center, or thick edges. Chipped center 30 Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide Thick edges 2 Setting up the Instrument • When measuring a short distance, incline the prism slightly so that the EDM can ignore unnecessary reflections on the prism surface, as shown below. • Not completely square to the sighting axis Completely square to the sighting axis Hold the prism securely in place and do not move while taking measurements. In Prism mode, to avoid false measurements on objects other than the prism or reflector-sheet, targets that are less reflective than the prism or reflector sheet are not measured. Even if you start a measurement, measured values are not displayed. To measure less reflective objects, use the N-Prism (Reflectorless) mode. Measurement in reflectorless (N-Prism) mode The TS635 Construction Total Station enables reflectorless measurements up to 300 m (984 feet). The intensity of the reflection from the target determines the distance the TS635 can measure in this mode. The color and condition of the target surface also affect the measurable distance, even if the targeted objects are the same. Some less-reflective targets may not be measured. The following table describes some examples of targets and approximate measuring distances: Target You can measure approximately ... Traffic signs, reflectors 500 meters (1640 feet) Paper (white), veneer (new) 300 meters (990 feet) Wall (brightly painted), brick 100 to 200 meters (330 to 660 feet) Measurable distances may be shorter or measurement intervals may be longer if either of the following conditions apply: • the angle of the laser against the target is small • the surface of the target is wet In direct sunlight, the measurable distance may be shorter. In this case, try to throw a shadow on the target. Targets with completely flat surfaces, such as mirrors, cannot be measured unless the beam and the target are perpendicular to each other. Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide 31 2 Setting up the Instrument Make sure there are no obstacles between the instrument and the target when taking measurements. When you need to take measurements across a road or a place where vehicles or other objects are frequently moving, take several measurements to a target for the best result. Viewing and changing the measurement settings Hold down [MSR1] or [MSR2] for one second. • To move the cursor between the fields, press [^] or [v]. • To change the value in the selected field, press [<] or [>]. The available values are: Field Values Target Prism mode N-Prism mode Constant (prism constant) -999 mm through 999 mm Mode Precise Normal Track Track (continuous MSR) ON Track (continuous MSR) OFF Target field If the measurement is started with the Target field set to Prism mode, there is a dash in front of the prism constant, for example –18 mm . If the measurement is started with the Target field set to N-Prism (Reflectorless) mode, there is square bracket in front of the prism constant, for example ]18 mm. The displayed symbol will continuously move from left to right over the prism constant in the display. Prism constant The factory default of the prism constant value of the TS635 construction total station is -30 mm. Change the prism constant to match the constant value of the prism you are using. Once you have set up the instrument, you can turn on the TS635 construction total station, change the instrument settings, and start a job.

Field Values Target Prism N-Prism Const (prism constant) –999 mm through 999 mm Mode Precise Normal Track Track (continuous MSR) ON Track (continuous MSR) OFF Target field • If the measurement is started with the Target field set to Prism, there is a dash “–” in front of the prism constant. • If the measurement is started with the Target field set to N-Prism, there is a right square bracket “]” in front of the prism constant. The symbol then continuously moves from left to right over the prism constant in the display. The Target setting is used by the TS635 Construction Total Station to apply better cyclic-error adjustment in distance measurement. The target setting efficiently eliminates multipath reflection. An incorrect Target setting may result in measurements outside the precision and intervals specified for the instrument. If you aim a prism target in the N-prism mode, the warning message Signal High!→Try Prism Mode appears because of the excessive light reflection. A measurement made immediately after changing the target setting may take a longer time than usual. 54 Trimble TS635 Construction Total Station User Guide
