1.6 Laser Classification
1.6.1 General
General The following chapters provide instructions and training information about laser safety
according to international standard IEC 60825-1 (2014-05) and technical report IEC TR
60825-14 (2004-02). The information enables the person responsible for the product
and the person who actually uses the equipment, to anticipate and avoid operational
hazards.
1.6.2 Distancer, Measurements with Reflectors
General The EDM module built into the product produces a visible laser beam which emerges
from the telescope objective.
The product described in this section is classified as laser class 1 in accordance with:
• IEC 60825-1 (2014-05): "Safety of laser products"
These products are safe under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation and are
not harmful to the eyes provided that the products are used and maintained in accordance with this User Manual.
According to IEC TR 60825-14 (2004-02), products classified as laser class 1,
class 2 and class 3R do not require:
• laser safety officer involvement,
• protective clothes and eyewear,
• special warning signs in the laser working area
if used and operated as defined in this User Manual due to the low eye hazard
level.

1.6.3 Distancer, Measurements without Reflectors
General The EDM module built into the product produces a visible laser beam which emerges
from the telescope objective.
The laser product described in this section is classified as laser class 3R in accordance
with:
• IEC 60825-1 (2014-05): "Safety of laser products"
Direct intrabeam viewing may be hazardous (low eye hazard level), in particular for
deliberate ocular exposure. The beam may cause dazzle, flash-blindness and afterimages, particularly under low ambient light conditions. The risk of injury for laser
class 3R products is limited because of:
a) unintentional exposure would rarely reflect worst case conditions of (e.g.) beam
alignment with the pupil, worst case accommodation,
b) inherent safety margin in the maximum permissible exposure to laser radiation
(MPE)
c) natural aversion behaviour for exposure to bright light for the case of visible
radiation.
CAUTION
From a safety perspective, class 3R laser products should be treated as potentially
hazardous.
Precautions:
1) Prevent direct eye exposure to the beam.
2) Do not direct the beam at other people.
CAUTION
Potential hazards are not only related to direct beams but also to reflected beams
aimed at reflecting surfaces such as prisms, windows, mirrors, metallic surfaces, etc.
Precautions:
1) Do not aim at areas that are essentially reflective, such as a mirror, or which could
emit unwanted reflections.
2) Do not look through or beside the optical sight at prisms or reflecting objects when
the laser is switched on, in laser pointer or distance measurement mode. Aiming at
prisms is only permitted when looking through the telescope.

EDM Electronic Distance Measurement
EDM refers to the laser distancer incorporated into the instrument
which enables distance measurement.
Two measuring modes are available:
• Prism mode. This mode refers to the ability to measure
distances to prisms. On the TS60, it incorporates the long range
mode to measure extended distances to prisms. On the MS60,
the standard mode (Once) is used for the whole distance range
including extended distance prisms.
• Any surface mode. This mode refers to the ability to measure
distances without prisms.
PinPoint PinPoint refers to the Reflectorless EDM technology which enables
an increased measuring range with a smaller laser spot size. Two
options are available: R1000 and R2000.

2.2 System Concept
2.2.1 Software Concept
Description All instruments use the same software concept.
Software for
TS Models
Software Upload
Uploading software can take some time. Ensure that the battery is at least 75%
full before you start the upload. Do not remove the battery during the upload
process.
Software update instructions for all TS models:
1) Download the most recent firmware file from https://myworld.leicageosystems.com. Refer to "Introduction".
2) Copy the firmware file into the System folder on the Leica SD card.
3) Start the instrument. Select Settings\Tools\Update software. Select the firmware
file and start the update.
4) When the update is complete, a message appears.
Software type Description
TS firmware
(TS_xxMS60Leica
Captivate.fw)
The Leica Captivate software is running on the TS instrument
and covers all functions of the instrument.
The main applications and languages are integrated into the
firmware and cannot be deleted.
The languages released with Leica Captivate are included in
the firmware file.
Applications
(xx.axx)
Many optional survey-specific applications are available for
the TS instruments. All applications are included in the Leica
Captivate firmware file and can be loaded separately.
Some of the applications are activated freely and require no
licence key; others require purchasing and are only activated
with a licence key.
If the licence is not loaded to the instrument, applications
requiring a licence key run for a 40 h trial period. For a trial
run, the Measure&Stakeout licence must be available on the
TS.
Customised
applications
(xx.axx)
Customised software, specific to user requirements, can be
developed using the GeoC++ development kit. Information on
the GeoC++ development environment is available on request
from a Leica Geosystems representative.

2.2.2 Power Concept
General Use the batteries, chargers and accessories recommended by Leica Geosystems to
ensure the correct functionality of the instrument.
Power Options
2.2.3 Data Storage Concept
Description Data is stored on a memory device. The memory device can be an SD card or internal
memory. For data transfer an USB stick can also be used.
Memory Device
While other SD cards can be used, Leica Geosystems recommends to only use
Leica SD cards and is not responsible for data loss or any other error that can
occur while using a non-Leica card.
Unplugging connecting cables or removing the SD card or USB stick during the measurement can cause loss of data. Only remove the SD card or USB stick or unplug
connecting cables when the TS instrument is switched off.
Transfer Data Data can be transferred in various ways. Refer to "4.8 Connecting to a Personal
Computer".
SD cards can directly be used in an OMNI drive as supplied by Leica Geosystems. Other
PC card drives can require an adaptor.
Model Power supply
All instrument types Internally by GEB242 battery, OR
Externally by GEV219 cable and GEB371 battery.
If an external power supply is connected and the internal
battery is inserted, then the external power is used for the
standard setting. It is possible to configure the main power
source to either internal battery or external power supply. If
both power sources are available the internal battery serves as
an uninterruptible electronic power supply due to internal
charging functionality of the internal battery.
