z Security Guide
Pay attention to the following safety matters when you use the laser ranging free of prism.
Warning:
Totalstationfitoutlaserlevel3R/ċa which is recognized by the loge, which is above:
the verticallocking screw saying“3A laser product ”.This product belongs to Class 3R
levellaser .According to the following standards IEC 60825-12001Class 3R/ċa laser product
can reachfive times of emission limits of the Class 2/
Ċ
in the wavelength between
400nm-700nm.
Warning :
Continuous stareinto the laser beam is harmful.
Prevention:
Do not stare at laser beam or point to others. The reflected beams is the effective signal of the
instrument. It’s safety to observe by eyepice.
Warning:
When the laser beam is irradiated reflected by prisms, plane mirrors, surface of metal and
windows,it’s dangerous to look straightinto the reflected beams.
Prevention :
Don’t stare at the reflected beams. When the laser is switched on (distance mode), do not
obstruct optical path or stand near the prism.Target at a prismwith total station telescope only.
Warning :
It’s dangerous to use the Class 3R laser deviceinproperly.
Prevention:
Toavoid injury, each user must carry safety prevention measures and operate the instrument
within the safety scope according to standard IEC60825-1: 2001).
The following is the explanation of the main part of the standard:
Class 3R level raserproducts are used outdoors and in construction (surveying with No-Prism).
A: Only trained and certified personnels are allowed to install, adjust and operate the laser
equipment.
B: set up appropriate laser warning sign within the operating field
C: To prevent anyone from looking into the laser beam use an optical instrument to observe.
D: in order to prevent laser damage to persons, the laser beams should be blocked at the end of the
working route, and also should be cut off when people work in the restricted area
(harmfuldistance)where laser beams crossing are harmful.
E: the route of the laser beam must set to be higher or lower than the human eye.
F: properly store and safekeep the laser products when they it is not used, unauthenticated
personals are not allowed using it.
G: Do not point laser beams at surfaces such as plane mirror, metal surface, window, especially
the surface of plane mirror and concave mirror.

8. Point Search
Point search is a function used by applications to find measured or fixed points in
the jobs.
DŽ
Point search is limited to a particular job.
If several points meet the search criteria, then the results are ordered according to
the date.
8.1 Direct search
By entering an actual point number (for example ‘A1’), and pressing key
SEARCH, all points within the selected job and with the corresponding point number
are found.
Here is an example for searching fix point in function ‘Set STA’.

The wildcard search is indicated by a “*”. The asterisk is a place holder for any
following sequence of characters. Wildcards should be used if the point number is not
fully known, or to search for a batch of points.
Examples:
* All points are found.
A All points with exactly the point number “A” are found.
A* All points containing “A” are found, for example, A1, A2, 1A.

F1-F4 Start the corresponding functions
Notes
:
Measurements to strongly reflecting targets such as to traffic
lights in Reflector EDM mode without prism should be avoided. The
measured distances may be wrong or inaccurate.
When a distance measurement is triggered, the EDM measures
to the object which is in the beam path at that moment.
If e.g. people, cars, animals, swaying branches, etc. cross the laser
beam while a measurement is being taken, a fraction of the laser beam is
reflected and may lead to incorrect distance values.
Avoid interrupting the measuring beam while taking reflectorless
measurements or measurements using reflective foils.
¾
No Prism Ranging
Ensure that laster beam is not feflected by any object with high reflectivity and
close to the light path.
24
Total Station Manual
When start the distance measurement, EDM will measure distance for the object
in the light path.If there are temporary obstacles in the light path (such as by car,
or the heavy rain, snow, or filled with fog), the distance measured by EDM is the
distance to the nearest obstacle.
When a long distance measurement, laser beam deviation of collimation line will
affect the accuracy of measurement.This is because the divergence of the laser
beam reflection point may not be with the crosshair sighting points coincide. It is
recommended that the user accurately adjust to ensure that is consistent with laser
beam collimation.
Please refer toĀ20.10 NO Prism Rangingāin the Chapter 9
Don't use two instruments to measure the same target at the same time .
¾ Red light cooperates with reflective pieces to measure distance
Laster can also be used to measure distance for eflectivepieces.To guarantee the
accuracy of measurement, the laser beam is perpendicular to the reflector plate,
and through accurate adjustment.
the Chapter 9
Please refer toĀ3.10 NO Prism Rangingāin
Ensure proper additive constant of different reflection prism.
