4.5.6 Offset Measurement Mode
There are four kinds of Offset Measurement Modes:
z Angle Offset Measurement
z Distance Offset Measurement
z Plane Offset Measurement
z Column Offset Measurement
1) Angle Offset Measurement
This program is used to measure the point where it’s difficult to set prism. Place the prism
at the same horizontal distance from the instrument as that of point A0 to measure.
59
●When measuring coordinate of ground point A1(projection of point A0),set instrument
height and prism height.
●When measuring coordinate of point A0,set instrument height only(Prism height is set as
0).
●Under angle offset measurement mode,there are two methods to set vertical angle:
1.Free vertical angle: vertical angle ranges from up-and-down movement of telescope.
2.Lock vertical angle:vertical angle is locked and can’t range from up-and-down
movement of telescope.
Thus,if collimate A0 with the first method, vertical angle ranges from up-and-down
movement of telescope,and meantime slope distance(SD) and elevation difference(VD)
will change too.But if collimate A0 with the second method,vertical angle is locked in the
direction where prism is located and can’t range from up-and-down movement of
telescope.

Appendix I: Atmospheric correction formula and
chart(Just for reference)
Factory setting: temperature: 20 , pressure:1013hpa, 0ppm ℃（RTS）
temperature: 20 , pressure:1013hpa, 0ppm ℃（RTS）
The correction:
Kpt＝274.417-0.2905*p/(1＋0.0036*t)……………….. RTS
Kpt＝278.960-0.2902*p/(1＋0.0036*t)………………...RTS
Where: p--Pressure value (hPa)
t--Temperature value (℃)
Kpt--Atmospheric correction (ppm)
Example:
t=20 , p=1013hpa, L0=1000m.℃
Then: Kpt=0ppm (RTS) Kpt=4ppm (RTS)
L=L0(1+Kpt)=1000×(1+0×10-6)=1000.000m (RTS)
L=L0(1+Kpt)=1000×(1+4×10-6)=1000.004m (RTS)
The atmospheric value is obtained easily with the atmospheric correction chart.
Find the measured temperature in horizontal axis, and pressure in vertical axis on
the chart.
Read the value from the diagonal line, which is the required atmospheric
correction value.

Appendix II: Correction for refraction and earth curvature
Considering the correction of refraction and earth curvature for distance
measurement, the formula for slope distance, horizontal distance and vertical
distance applied in the instrument are as followings:
The conversion formula for horizontal and vertical distance is as follows when
correction for refraction and earth curvature is not applied:
HD=SD COS§ VD=SD SIN§∣∣
NOTE:
The factory setting for the refraction coefficient K is 0.142.
Refer to the section 3.10 to change the value of K.

Appendix III: Assembling and disassembling for three-jaw
tribrach
It is convenient to assemble or disassemble the instrument from tribrach by
loosen or tighten the tribrach clamp.
Disassemble
(1) Rotate the tribrach clamp anticlockwise until the lever is loosen.
(2) One hand hold up the tribrach, another hand hold the carry handle of the
instrument and lift out the instrument from the tribrach.
Assemble
(1) Put the instrument into the tribrach lightly, let the communication port
against in the indentation of the tribrach..
(2) Rotate the tribrach clamp clockwise until the lever is tighten.
Note: Fix the tribrach clamp
If the instrument don’t need assembly or disassembly from tribrach frequently, it
is necessary to fix the tribrach clamp by fixed screw to avoid the disassembly by
accident.
Screw out the fixed screw by driver to fix the clamp.
