Introduction

General

The electronic theodolites and total stations in the TPS System 1000 are equipped with programs for processing field data and control-point coordinates. The systems are therefore highly functional and classical survey tasks are simplified appreciably.

When delivered, the instruments are already equipped for the following standard applications:

- Orientation and height transfer

- Resection

- Tie distance

- Stakeout

- Free-station survey (Licence code required)

In addition, the following applications are delivered on diskette:

- Reference line / building alignment

- Remote height

- Hidden points

- Computation of area

- Sets of angles

- Traverse

- Local resection

- Roadline

- File Editor

- Road Plus

- COGO

- Monitoring

IN

This list is extended continuously. Find actual information in file README.TXT on diskette.

The additional application programs can be loaded into the instrument, but can only be run as a demonstration version in which certain functions are disabled. Full functionality can be obtained with a licence code, available from your Leica agency, where you can also obtain information about the newest programs available in the ongoing applications-software development

project. All installation programs and applications are supplied on normal 3 1/2" diskettes.

IN

Loading files into the TPS1000 instruments

Applications, and system- and application texts, are loaded into the TPS1000 by means of the "TPS SOFTWARE UPLOAD" program.

Use the interface cable 563 625 to connect the TPS1000 to the serial interface COM1 or COM2 on the PC.

Start the "TPS SOFTWARE UPLOAD" program with a double-click from the WINDOWS program manager.

Select the command "Sensor/Settings" and inspect the interface selected and the baud rate. The baud rate should be set to the maximum. The baud rate for the TPS1000 instrument is set automatically .

Licence code

When an additional application is first started up, a licence code is requested, so that the application will be fully functional. Without this licence code, you can run the applications as a demonstration version, but you will not be able to calculate and store the results.

IN

The licence code is available from your Leica agency, who will inform you about licence fees for additional applications. Details of the licence agreement are given in the registration card, which is a part of the "System" manual. To expedite formalities, please fill in a copy of the form at the end of this section and fax it to your local Leica agency.

Solving problems

1. Instrument does not switch on when "Utilities/View Applications + System..." option is selected. Inspect the cable connections and that the serial interface COM1 or COM2 has been set correctly.

2. Instrument does not switch to "ON-LINE-MODE (GeoCOM)" mode when "Utilities/View Applications + System..." option is selected. Make sure that the instrument is switched off before the "Utilities/View Applications + System..." option is activated.

3. Instrument does not switch to "ON-LINE-MODE (GeoCOM)" mode when "Utilities/View Applications + System..." option is selected; "MEASURE & RECORD" menu or another autostart application is displayed instead.

Carry out the following operations on the instrument:

T o avoid temporarily-stored information being lost when the TPS1000 automatically switches off after long periods of disuse, you should set the "sleep mode" instead of the automatic switchoff. For more information, please refer to section "Fixed keys" ("Power off, Sleep") of "System" - user manual.

Each application takes over the settings (units, recording format, display format etc.) allocated to the appropriate user.

If required, these user settings must be defined in

advance. For more information, please refer to section "User configuration" of "System" - user manual.

changed values will be taken over in the other applications also and in „Measure and record“.

Dual-face Measurement

In the dual-face mode, the program will prompt for measurements in both faces. When both measurements are taken, the program will check the difference between the two. If the difference in angle is within 27' (0.5 gon) and the difference of two measured distances is within 0.5 m (1.64 ft), the observations will be averaged. These tolerances are used to avoid errors in target identification. If exceeded an error message will be displayed.

The program can be used to deduce the three-dimensional coordinates for the instrument station and the orientation of the horizontal circle from measurements to 2 target points with know Easting and Northing. To compute the position coordinates, at least the distances and the directions for both points are necessary.

For simultaneous determination of the station elevation, height of instrument and height of reflector must already have been input and the elevation of the target points must be known.

Tie Distance

Introduction

This manual describes the "Tie Distance" program of the TPS SYSTEM 1000 theodolite series. The program calculates the length and azimuth of a line connecting two points. Polygonal or Radial methods can be used as shown in the illustrations.

The data for the points can either be measured or retrieved from the selected file. Measured points and points retrieved from the selected file can be used together in the calculations, if the station coordinates and orientation are set correctly.

In Polygonal Mode, the program will calculate the distance between the last two points measured (eg. Pt3 Pt4).

Stakeout

Introduction

Search Point

This manual describes the "STAKEOUT" program of the TPS SYSTEM 1000 theodolite series. The program allows points with known coordinates to be placed in the field.

"STAKEOUT" requires the instrument to be set up on a known point with the instrument oriented. The station point can be determined also with the programs "FREE ST ATION" and "RESECTION". The stakeout points can either be retrieved from the selected file or entered manually . The program permits selection of either 2D or 3D stakeout modes.

The "SEARCH POINT" dialog informs about the active recording device, the active file for data storage and the present point/code.

Once the coordinates of the stakeout point have been acquired, the program proceeds to "Coarse Positioning". This option is available to direct the prism from the previous point placed to the next. The "Coarse Positioning" calculates various displacements, depending on the method selected. Displacements are computed between the last point placed and the actual stakeout point selected. For more information refer to chapter "Stakeout".

The stakeout values of each point are computed in relation to the base formed by the last two points. If the elevation is known for the point to be staked out, the height difference in relation to the last base point (Pt2), is displayed. In particular, this method is advantageous for long objects (traffic routes). Values

for positioning are only displayed after two stakeout points.

If the difference in angle is within 27' (0.5 gon) and the difference of two measured distances is within 0.5 m (1.64 ft), the observations will be averaged. These tolerances are used to avoid errors in target identification. If exceeded an error message will be displayed.

If "Log File" is set to ON the measurements and the results are stored in the ASCII-file specified within the "Configuration Editor". This file is created in the directory LOG on the memory card. Subsequently, you can read the memory card on your PC and obtain a hard copy of the Log-file.

Data will always be appended to the specified Log-file.

The Log-file contains the following information: Header The header line will contain the

program used, information about the instrument, the name of the data file as well as date and time.

Record For each measurement, a record will

be stored containing :

- Station coordinates and

- orientation correction,

- standard deviations for Easting, Northing, Height of station and orientation correction.

The residuals for

- horizontal angles,

- heights and

- measured distances are also listed.

Typical log file entry in the "FREE STATION" program

Reference Line

Introduction

This manual describes the "REFERENCE LINE" program of the TPS SYSTEM 1000 theodolite series. The distance and the angle between two points is calculated by the program.

"REFERENCE LINE" is a specialized form of stakeout used for construction and building alignment. It permits positioning of a point referred to a line. Points for use in the program can be measured, entered manually, or read from the database. The program records individual measurements in the database. In addition, the program generates a log file containing all data for a given measurement session.
