1. Collimate the first target "A".
2. Set the horizontal angle of target "A" to
0°00'00".
Press [0 SET], and it flashes.
Press [0 SET] again at once,
and the horizontal angle of
target "A" is set to 0°.

The following is a list of the error messages displayed by the ES and the meaning
of each message. If the same error message is repeated or if any message not
shown below appears, the instrument has malfunctioned. Contact your local dealer .
BadCondition
The air is shimmering a lot, etc., measuring conditions are poor.
The center of the target cannot be sighted.
Resight the target.
Unsuitable distance measurement conditions when reflectorless measurement
is set. When reflectorless measurement is set, distance cannot be measured
because the laser beam is striking at least two surfaces at the same time.
Choose a single surface target for distance measurement.
Bad file name
File name is not entered when saving data on USB memory device.
Calculation error
Coordinates identical to the known point coordinates observed during resection
exist. Set another known point so that the known point coordinates do not
coincide.
Checksum error
A sending/repetition error has occured between the ES and external equipment.
Send/receive the data again.
Clock error
Clock error occurs when the voltage of the lithium battery decreases or the
battery itself is depleted. For details on replacing lithium batteries contact your
local dealer.
Communication error
A reception error has occurred in coordinate data from an external instrument.
Check the settings of parameters concerning communication conditions.
Flash write error!
It is impossible to read in data.
Contact your local dealer.
Incorrect Password
Input password does not match set password. Input correct password.
Insert USB
USB memory device is not inserted.
Invalid USB
Incorrect USB memory device is inserted.
Invalid baseline
During setting-out line measurement or point projection measurement, baseline
has not been defined correctly.
Memory is full
There is no more room to enter data.
Record the data again after deleting unnecessary data from the JOB or
coordinate data from the memory.
Need 1st obs
During missing line measurement, the observation of the starting position was
not completed normally.
Sight the starting position accurately and press [OBS] to perform the
measurement again.
Need 2nd obs
During missing line measurement, the observation of the target was not
completed normally.
Sight the target accurately and press [MLM] to perform the measurement again.
Need offset pt.
Observation of the offset point during offset measurement was not completed
normally.
Sight the offset point accurately and press [OBS] to perform the measurement
again.

Need prism obs
During REM measurement, the observation of the target was not completed
normally.
Sight the target accurately and press [OBS] to perform measurement again.
New password Diff.
Passwords input when setting a new password do not match.
Input the same password twice.
No data
When searching for or reading in coordinate data or searching for code data, the
search stopped either because the item in question does not exist or the data
volume is large.
No file
There is no file for loading known point data or displaying data on the currently
selected USB memory device.
No solution
The calculation of the instrument station coordinates during resection does not
converge.
Assess the results and if necessary, perform the observation again.
Intersect point could not be calculated. Either necessary data items were not
input or the Intersect point does not exist.
North/East is null, Read error
The Northing or Easting field of the given coordinate is null.
Input the coordinate.
Out of range
The tilt of the instrument exceeds the tilt angle compensation range during
measurement.
Level the instrument again.
Out of value
During gradient % display, the display range (less than ±1000%) has been
exceeded.
During REM measurement, either the vertical angle has exceeded horizontal
±89° or the measured distance is greater than 9999.999m.
Install the instrument station far from the target.
The instrument station coordinates calculated during resection are too high.
Perform the observation again.
During setting-out line measurement, scale factor has been less than 0.100000
or exceeded 9.999999.
During area calculation, results exceeded the display range.
Print or send first
JOB data output (transmission to the host computer or output to the printer) is
not completed before JOB is cleared.
Either transmit the JOB to be cleared to the host computer or output it to the
printer.
Pt already on route
Traverse tried to close on a traverse point other than the Start pt. during
automatic route search. Press any key to return to the last point found in
automatic route search. Either select the next traverse point to continue the
current search or specify the Start pt. to close a closed-loop traverse.
Please use the Star key in obs mode
Can be used only in the Observation mode.
Pt1-Pt2 too near
When setting the baseline with "Point to Line", two reference point s are too close.
Leave the space of 1 m or longer between the two reference points.
Read-only file
Read-only file on the USB memory device cannot be changed and file contents
cannot be edited or deleted.
Same coordinates
The same values are input in Pt.1 and Pt.2 in setting-out lin e mea suremen t. ES
cannot define the baseline.
SDR format err
The file read in is not SDR format. Check the file.
Signal off
Measuring conditions are poor, and there is not any reflecti ve light for measuring
distances.
Resight the target. When using reflective prisms, effectiveness will be improved
by increasing the number of prisms used.
Station coord is Null
Cannot calculate. Station point coordinate is set to “Null”.
Input the coordinate.
Temp Range OUT
ES is outside useable temperature range and accurate measurement cannot be
performed. Repeat measurement within the appropriate temperature range. If
the ES is used under direct sunlight, use an umbrella to protect it aga inst the heat
of the sun.
Time out (during measurement)
Measuring conditions are poor, and due to the insufficient amount of reflective
light, measuring could not be carried out within the time specified.
Resight the target. When using reflective prisms, effectiveness will be improved
by increasing the number of prisms used.
Too short
Input password has fewer than 3 characters. Password must have 3 or more
characters and 8 or fewer characters.
USB error
An error has occurred in loading or saving data to USB memory device.
USB full !
There is no more room to enter data on USB memory device.
USB not found
USB memory device was removed during USB mode operation.
АААААААА
The calculated result is too large to be displayed on the screen in its totality.
If connected data collector or host computer is turned Off, the above screen
appears. This is normal, and does not indicate trouble. If connected data
collector or host computer is turned On again or cable is connected again, the
previous screen is restored.
