PRECAUTIONS

1. Do not collimate the objective lens direct to sunlight without a filter.

2. Do not store the instrument in high and low temperature to avoid the sudden or great change of temperature.

3. When the instrument is not in use, place it in the case and avoid shock, dust and humidity.

4. If there is great difference between the temperature in work site and that in store place, you should leave the instrument in the case till it adapts to the temperature of environment.

5. If the instrument has not been used for a long time, you should remove the battery for separate storage. The battery should be charged once a month.

6. When transporting the instrument should be placed in its carrying case, it is recommended that cushioned material should be used around the case for support.

7. For less vibration and better accuracy, the instrument should be set up on a wooden tripod rather than an aluminum tripod.

8. Clean exposed optical parts with degreased cotton or lens tissue only!

9. Clean the instrument surface with a woolen cloth after use. If it gets wet, dry it immediately.

10. Before working, inspect the power, functions and indications of the instrument as well as its initial settings and correction parameters.

11. Unless the user is a maintenance specialist, do not attempt to disassemble the instrument by yourself even if you find the instrument abnormal.

12. Since Reflectorless Total Station R2 emits visible laser, do not sight the eyes in use.

SAFETY GUIDE Internal EDM (Visible Laser) Warning: The total station is equipped with an EDM of a laser grade of 3R/Ⅲa. It is verified by the following labels. On the vertical tangent screw sticks an indication label “CLASS III LASER PRODUCT”. A similar label is sticked on the opposite side. This product is classified as Class 3R laser product, which accords to the following standards. IEC60825-1:2001 “SAFETY OF LASER PRODUCTS”. Class 3R/Ⅲ a laser product: It is harmful to observe laser beam continuously. User should avoid sighting the laser at the eyes. It can reach 5 times the emitting limit of Class2/II with a wavelength of 400mm-700mm.

Warning:

STONEX R2

3

Continuously looking straight at the laser beam is harmful.

Prevention:

Do not stare at the laser beam, or point the laser beam to others‟ eyes. Reflected laser beam is a valid measurement to the instrument.

Warning:

When the laser beam emits on prism, mirror, metal surface, window, etc., it is dangerous to look straight at the reflex.

Prevention:

Do not stare at the object which reflects the laser beam. When the laser is switched on (under EDM mode), do not look at it on the optical path or near the prism. It is only allowed to observe the prism with the telescope of total station.

Warning:

Improper operation on laser instrument of Class 3R will bring dangers.

Prevention:

To avoid to be harmed, each user is required to take safety precautions, and take everything under control within the distance that would incur dangers (according to IEC60825-1:2001).

The following shows the explanation related to the key sections of the Standard.

Laser instrument of Class 3R is applicable outdoors and in construction field (measurement, defining lines, leveling). a) Only those persons who are trained with related course and authenticated are allowed to install, adjust, and operate this kind of laser instrument. b) Stand related warning symbols in the scale of use. c) Prevent any person to look straight at or use optical instrument to observe the laser beam. d) To prevent the harm caused by laser, block the laser beam at the end of the working route. When the laser beam exceeds the limit area (harmful distance*) and when there are motivating persons, stopping the laser beam is a must. e) The optical path of the laser should be set higher or lower than the line of sight. f) When the laser instrument is not in use, take care of it properly. The person who is not authenticated is not allowed to use. g) Prevent the laser beam from irradiating plane mirror, metal surface, window, etc. especially beware of the surface of plane mirror and concave mirror. * Harmful distance means the maximum distance between the start point and the point which the laser is weakened to a degree that doesn‟t harm people. The internal EDM instrument equipped with a Class 3R/III a Laser has a harmful distance of 1000m (3300ft). Beyond this distance, the laser intensity is weakened to Class I (Looking straight at the laser beam causes no harm to the eyes.)

② Turn the leveling screw C to move the bubble to the center of the circular vial.

4) Precisely leveling by using the plate vial ① Rotate the instrument horizontally by loosening the Horizontal Clamp Screw and place the plate vial parallel to the line connecting leveling screw A and B, and then bring the bubble to the center of the plate vial by turning the leveling screws A and B.

② Rotate the instrument 90º(100g) around its vertical axis and turn the remaining leveling screw or leveling C to center the bubble once more.

③Repeat the steps ①② for each 90º(100g) rotation of the instrument and check whether the bubble is correctly centered in all directions.

2 Centering by using the optical plummet

1) Set tripod Lift tripod to suitable height, ensure equal length of three legs, spread and make tripod head parallel to the ground, and place it right above the measurement station point. Prop up tripod on the ground and fix one leg.

2) Install instrument and collimate the point Set instrument carefully on tripod, tighten the central connecting screw and adjust

STONEX R2

previous one. Pay particular attention to this when switching angle measurement mode to distance measurement mode, because insufficient battery power might lead to interrupted operation.

● Before outdoor operation, battery power status should be well checked.

③ When the measurement mode is changed, the battery power would not immediately

show the decrease or increase. The battery power indicating system shows the general status but not the instantaneous change of battery power.

² Battery Recharging Cautions: ☆ Battery should be recharged only with the charger SC-21 going with the instrument. ☆ Remove the on-board battery from instrument and connect it to battery charger. When

the indicator lamp on the battery charger is orange, the recharging process has begun. When charging is complete (indicator lamp turns green), disconnect the charger from its power source.

²Battery Removal Cautions：

Before removing the battery from the instrument, make sure that the power is turned off. Otherwise, the instrument may be damaged.

²Battery Recharging Cautions：

☆ The charger has built-in circuitry for protection from overcharging. However,

do not leave the charger plugged into the power outlet after recharging is completed.

☆ Be sure to recharge the battery at a temperature of 0°～±45°C, recharging may

be abnormal beyond the specified temperature range .

☆ When the indicator lamp does not light after connecting the battery and charger,

either the battery or the charger may be damaged. Please connect professionals for repairing.

²Battery Charging Cautions：

☆ Rechargeable battery can be repeatedly recharged 300 to 500 times. Complete

discharge of the battery may shorten its service life.

☆ In order to get the maximum service life, be sure to recharge it at least once a

month.

2.4 REFLECTOR PRISMS

When measuring distance, a reflector prism needs to be placed at the target place. Reflector systems come with single prism and triple prisms, which can be mounted with tribrach onto a tripod or mounted onto a prism pole. Reflector systems can be self-configured by users according to job.

Illustrated are some prism systems that match:

② Collimate the target point with top of the triangle mark in the coarse collimator. (Keep a certain distance between eye and the coarse collimator).

③ Make the target image clear with the telescope focusing screw.

☆ If there is parallax when your eye moves up, down or left, right, it means the diopter

of eyepiece lens or focus is not well adjusted and accuracy will be influenced, so you should adjust the eyepiece tube carefully to eliminate the parallax.

2.7 INPUTTING MODE

STONEX R2 Total Station has alphanumeric keypad; Users therefore can input number and character directly. R2 total station instrument will be introduced particularly as follows.

2.8 POINT SEARCH

Pointsearch is a comprehensive function, which use a procedure to search measurement points or known points in internal memory. The searching scope can be limited to a particular job or the whole storage. The search procedure always finds known points before measured points that fulfill the same search criteria. If several points meet the search criteria, then the points are listed according to their storing time. The instrument finds the most current (youngest) known point first.

Direct Search

By entering an actual pointID (e.g.: “A12”), all points with the corresponding point number are found. There are many places to start the point searching function. Here, take searching the known points in “setting station” as an example.

F1-F4 Start the corresponding function

NOTE:

Measurements to strongly reflecting targets such as to traffic lights in infrared mode

should be avoided. The measured distances may be wrong or inaccurate.

When the [MEASURE] (Trigger Key) is triggered, the EDM measures 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.

Reflectorless EDM

●Ensure that the laser beams cannot be reflected by any object nearby with high reflectivity.

●When a distance measurement is triggered, the EDM measures to the object which is in the beam path at that moment. In case of temporary obstruction (e.g. a passing vehicle, heavy rain, snow, frog, etc.), the EDM may measure to the obstruction.

●When measuring longer distance, any divergence of the red laser beam from the line of sight might lead to less accurate measurements. This is because the laser beam might not be reflected from the point at which the crosshairs are pointing. Therefore, it is recommended to verify that the R-laser is well collimated with the telescope line of sight.

(Please refer to “10.11 REFLECTORLESS EDM”)

●Do not collimate the same target with the 2 total stations simultaneously.

Accurate measurements to prisms should be made with the standard program (infrared

mode).

Red Laser Distance Measurement Cooperated with Reflective Foils. The visible red laser beam can also be used to measure to reflective foils. To guarantee the accuracy the red laser beam must be perpendicular to the reflector foil and it must be well adjusted (refer to “10.11 REFLECTORLESS EDM”).

Make sure the additive constant belongs to the selected target (reflector).

Using the quick code function, a predefined code can be called up directly via numeric keypad on the instrument. The code is selected by entering a two digit number, the measurement is triggered and the measured data and code saved. A total of 100 codes can be assigned; you may create codes with “Codelist Manager” provided by STONEX Company, and transfer to the instrument. Each code can be assigned a unique one or two digit number in the “Codelist Manager”. If no numbers are allocated to the codes in “Codelist Manager”, the code is selected in accordance with the order in which the codes were entered in the code list (e.g.: 01->: first code in the code list. 10-> tenth code in the code list). About the coding format please refer to appendix A.

4.1 LEVELING

As the tilt sensor is activated, automatic correction of vertical angle for unlevelment is displayed. To ensure a precise angle measurement, tilt sensor must be activated (See 4.4 Main Settings), and the display can be used to fine level the instrument. If the instrument hasn‟t been leveled roughly, the screen displays that the instrument is out of the automatic correction range, and that it needs to be leveled manually. Please refer to “2.2 Instrument Setup” for detailed leveling instruction.

STONEX R2 Total Station compensates the vertical angle reading due to inclination

of the vertical axis in the X directions.

 Zenith: Zenith=0°; Horizon=90°  Horizon: Zenith=90°; Horizon=0°  V-(%): 45°=100%; Horizon=0°

If the V-% value increases rapidly and exceed 300%, it displays as “--.--%”.

Tilt Crn.

1- axis / OFF

²OFF： Tilt compensation is switched off. ²1-axis V-angle relate to the plumb line.

If the instrument is set on an unstable base (e.g. shaking platform, ship, etc.) the compensator should be switched off. This avoids the compensator drifting out of its measuring range and interrupting the measuring process by indicating an error. The compensator setting remains active even after the instrument is switched off.

Coll Crn.

ON/OFF

²ON : HZ Collimation is switched on. ²OFF: HZ Collimation is switched off.

If option “Coll Crn.” is active, each measured HZ angle is corrected. For normal operation, the HZ Collimation remains switched on. See “10. Check and Adjust” for detailed instruction.

If the orientation is only measured in telescope Face II, the HZ orientation is based on telescope Face II. If measured only in telescope Face I or mixed the HZ orientation is based on Face I.

The prism height may not be changed during measurements in the first and second telescope position.

If a target point is measured several times in the same telescope position, the last valid measurement is used for the computation.

If no orientation was set and an application was started, and if in “Measure” [All] or [REC] was triggered, then the current HZ direction and V-angle are set as orientation.

5.7 FREE STATION

The application “Free Station” is used to determine the instrument position from measurement to a minimum of two known points and a maximum of five known points.

The following measurements sequences to target points are possible: HZ-angle and V-angle only Distance and HZ-angle and V-angle HZ-angle and V angle to some points and HZ-angle and V angle plus distance to other points. The final calculated results are Easting, Northing and Height of the present station, including the instruments‟ HZ-circle orientation. Standard deviations and residuals for accuracy assessments are provided.

Measuring Techniques: Single face I or II measurements are always applicable. There is no specific point sequence or specific face sequences that are required. Gross errors checks are made for dual face measurements in order to the same point(s) are sighted with the other face. If a target point is measured several times in the same telescope position, the last valid measurement is used for calculation.

Measurement Restrictions: Status of a height of 0.000 m of the target point If target points have a valid height of 0.000m, use 0.001 m to avoid problems in height processing.

Computation Procedure

STONEX R2

92

The measuring procedure automatically determines the method of data process, e.g. intersection, 3 point intersection, etc. If there are more measurements, the procedure will use a least squares adjustment to determine the plan position, heights and azimuth. The average value of face I and face II measurements is called up to the computation process. Easting and northing is determined by the method of least squares, including standard deviation and improvements for HZ-direction and horizontal distances. The final height is computed from averaged height differences based on the original measurement. The HZ-circle orientation is computed by the original average face I and face II measurements and the final computed plan position.

Meaning

Selected point has no valid data!

This message occurs if the selected target point has no easting or northing coordinate.

Max 5 points supported!

If 5 points have already been measured and another point is selected, the system supports a maximum of 5 points.

Invalid data – no position computed! Please repeat the Free Station function！

The measurements may not allow final station coordinates (Eastings, Northings) to be computed， need to repeat measurement.

Invalid data – no height computed!

Either the target heights are invalid or insufficient measurements are available to compute a final station height.

Insufficient space in job!

The present selected job is full and does not allow further storage.

More points or distances are required!

There is insufficient data measured to be able to compute a position. Either there are not enough points used or not enough distances measured.
