745. Check and Adjustment5.1 The Instrument Constant1) CheckIt is suggested to observe and compare the instrument with a testing linewhich is set on stable ground with a particular accuracy, though error is notgenerally included in the instrument constant. If the testing line isunavailable, you can set it for 20 meters or so by yourselves, then check andcompare it with your new instrument.1. Select a point B on the approximately horizontal line AC with about 100meters long. Measure the distances of lines AB , AC and BC .2. The instrument constant can be calculated;instrument constant =AB+BC-AC3. If there is a difference between the instrument standard constant and thecalculated value , colligate the measured constant and the prism constant toget a new value ,then input the value into the instrument as a prismconstant .4. Compare length of the instrument’s testing line again with a certainstandard testing line .5.
