1.INTRODUCTION

1.1 Introduction

Thank you for your first looks at PowerTopoLite by reading this manual.
The PowerTopoLite is a user friendly data collection and calculation program for the
PENTAX total station V-300 series.
PowerTopoLite is developed based on PowerTopo,which is known as versatile on-board
software for PENTAX ATS total station series.The optimum combination of
PowerTopoLite and V-300 hardware makes PowerTopoLite as an easy and useful
fieldwork tool.
The icon based main menu offers you the following possibilities.

• FILE MANAGER

• MEASURE

• VIEW AND EDIT

• FREE STATIONING

• STAKE OUT

• CALCULATIONS

• VIRTUAL PLANE MEASUREMENT

• REMOTE DISTANCE MEASUREMENT

• TRAVERSE

• TRANSFER

• PREFERENCE

11

1.2 Before using the PowerTopoLite manual

• Memories in the instrument

The series instrument incorporates not only the PowerTopoLite surveying
programs as the Special function but also File manager and Data transfer programs.
The internal memory in the instrument can store the maximum 16000 point’s data in
V-325,30000 point’s data in V-325N, V-335N and V-323N.

• Relations between the Memory and each Function

• IH and PH
IH stands for “Instrument Height ”and PH stands for “Prizm Height”.

• The PowerTopoLite manual mainly describes the V-300 special functions,
and the basic operations are described in the (basic) V-300manual. And,therefore,
refer to the V-300basic manual regarding the V-300 general instrument
operations.

The PowerTopoLite screens vary with the selec tions of the “Preference”.
The factory default settings of the Preference are shown there.It is also possible to
select “Process type”that takes over the functionality of “PowerTopoLite”or “Structure
type”that takes over the functionality of our past product in ”Action Method Selection”.

• The V-300series instrument has a Job name of “PENTAX”as its default setting.
And,therefore,each data is stored in the “PENTAX”unless another new Job name is
created. When another Job name is created,each data is stored in the new Job name.

• The input range of the X,Y and Z Coordinate is “-99999999.998”- “99999999.998”.

• The input range of the Instrument and Prism height is “-9999.998”- “9999.998”.

• The PC,PointCodeList,is added to the PN,Coordinates X,Y,Z and IH (PH or HI) and
you can input your desired attributes for the point.If you have PointCodeList in the
job named “PointCodeList”,you can easily selec t one of the PointCode from the list or
edit one of them after pressing [ENT ]. Please,note that Point Code,which is saved in
the other job can not be refered as a list.

• There are two Coordinates types of Rectangular and Polar.
The RO,VO,DO,TO offset and the remote measurement are possible when you select
the Rectangular Coordinates.
The RO,DO offset is possible when you select the Polar Coordinates.

• When you measure in EDM SETTINGS of COARSE TRACKING,the V-300 displays a
distance value to two decimal places.However,distance data of polar coordinates are
displayed by EDIT function to three decimal places even,and sent to four decimal
place. So, “0“ or “00” is added to the distance data after the third decimal point in
COARSE TRACKING mode.

For example
Displayed value: 123.45
Displayed by EDIT: 123.450
Sent polar data: 123.4500

• Rectangular coordinates is displayed,stored,and sent to three decimal place even if
in COARSE TRACKING or FINE MEASURE mode.

• You can change the distance measurement mode during measuring operation by
pressing the EDM key at the MEASURE and VPM functions.

• The same Point Name of the plural polar points can be saved.

Note: Creating several new JOB files and writing in or rewriting data on the same

JOB files repeatedly may cause time of writing-in and rewriting the data to be
slower. Also af ter saving the date until the memory capacity becomes almost
full,then deleting some JOB files in order to secure open memory capacity,
it may cause time of writing-in and rewriting the data to be slower.
In case the time of writing-in or rewriting the data become slower,
send the necessary data to PC for backup,then enter ‘All Clear’in FILEMANAGER.

The above procedure will format the inside memory automatically and improve the time
or writing-in and rewriting the data.Be sure in this case all the JOB files will be deleted.

4.MEASURE

An operator can measure the Foresight point Coordinates from the “Station point
Coordinates and Backsight Coordinates”or the “Station point Coordinates and Azimuth”,
and can store the Point name and measured Coordinates in the memory.When the
Coordinates of the Station point and Backsight point are already stored in the memory,the
new Coordinates input can be omitted by calling or searching from the point name LIST.
The point name is with in 15 characters and the Coordinates are within 8 in integer and
3 in decimal number.There are two Coordinates types of Rectangular and Polar
Coordinates in this [MEASURE].
The Offset at the Target point is possible and the Remote measurement by aiming at any
point is possible as well when you select the Rectangular Coordinates.

An operator can perform the [MEASURE] function only when the Telescope is at the
“Face left position”.
Select the Target type before performing the [MEASURE].
After measuring rectangular coordinates by [MEASURE] function of PowerTopoLite,
it is possible to display Angle and Distance by switching the [F3] key.
When Remote mode is selected,Angle and Distance are also calculated according to
the coordinates of the aiming point on real time.
When Offset mode is selected,Angle and Distance are also calculated according to the
coordinates where offset value is added.

4.4 Point Code

The PC,PointCodeList can be used for adding your desired attributes to Rect.and
Polar data.If point codes are stored under the job named "PointCodeList",you can easily
select one of the PointCode from the list or edit one of them after pressing [ENT].
Please,note that Point Code,which is saved in the other job can not be refered as a list.
“PointCodeList”can be created by either using “5.2 Create the Rectangular Point”
function or Importing “PointCodeList”file.

Making “PointCodeList”:

Create / select “PointCodeList”job using “3. FILE MANAGER”. Then input point data
according to “5.2 Create the Rectangular Point”. Input any value into “PN”field and leave
the X,Y,and Z field “0”.And input PointCode data into “PC ”field.

Importing “PointCodeList”file:

PointCodeList can be used after importing it from external devices (ex.PC).
After importing,it is stored in the internal memory of the instrument.To store user
defined ”PointCodeList”,please carry out following procedure.

Preparing “PointCodeList”file:

Make a “PointCodeList.csv”file with reference to a sample “PointCodeList.csv”file that
is contained in the “V-300 Supplement Disk”for the format.
Please,note that the newly entered PointCode on the instrument is not added to the
PointCodeList that is stored in the memory.In this case,edit “PointCodeList.csv”separately.

point Coordinates by moving the telescope.

The displayed Coordinates automatically change according to your aiming point.
The Remote is a function of,so to speak,“Real-time offset ”.If a reference point or offset
point is measured,the Coordinates of your aiming point are calculated based on the
reference plane.
There are three calculation methods of Cylindrical face,Fixed plane and Rotated plane.
They are selected by the “Preference”.Refer to “13.5 Remote method selection”.
The calculations are performed on the virtual planes.

To quit the Remote measurement,press [F1][REMOTE] twice again.

NOTE:

As illustrated Fig.1,It is optimal to chooses the known points P1 and P3.
The angle of two known points should set up a instrument so that it may become
90 degrees.Please install a instrument in a position where distance s1 and s2 becomes
as same the length as possible.

The accuracy of a calculation result falls as follows,

1)When P1 and P2 are chosen for a known point.
(The interior angle between known points is extremely small)

2)When P4 and P6 are chosen for a known point.
(The interior angle between known points is extremely large)

3)When the distance from a new point to a known point is extremely short or
extremely long.

4)When a new point (station point) and three or more known points are arranged on
the same circumference.(Refer to Fig. 2)

When searching for a new point by a FREESTATION and sur veying by installing a

instrument in the point,accuracy may not be stabilized compared with the case
where a instrument is installed on a known point.In the work which needs
a high-precision survey,we cannot recommend you.
