2. PRECAUTIONS

Charging Battery
• Be sure to charge the battery within the charging temperature range. Charging temperature range: 0 to 40°C
Warranty policy for Battery
• Battery is an expendable item. The decline in retained capacity depending on the repeated charging/ discharging cycle is out of warranty.
Bluetooth Wireless Technology
• Bluetooth function may not be built in depending on telecommunications regulations of the country or the area where the instrument is purchased. Contact your local dealer for the details.
Telescope
• Aiming the telescope at the sun will cause internal damage to the instrument. Use the solar filter when observing the sun.
"25. Optional accessories"
Tribrach Clamp and Handle
• When the instrument is shipped, the tribrach clamp is held firmly in place with a locking screw to prevent the instrument from shifting on the tribrach. Before using the instrument the first time, loosen this screw with a screwdriver. And before transporting it, tighten the locking screw to fasten the tribrach clamp in place so that it will not shift on the tribrach.
• The OS handle can be removed. When operating the OS with the handle attached, always make sure that the handle is securely fixed to the OS body with the handle locks.
Precautions concerning water and dust resistance
OS conforms to IP65 specifications for waterproofing and dust resistance when battery cover, connector cap and the external interface hatch and are closed.
• Be sure to correctly attach the connector caps to protect the OS from moisture and dust particles when the connector is not in use.
• Make sure that moisture or dust particles do not come in contact with the terminal or connectors. Operating the instrument with moisture or dust on the terminal or connectors may cause damage to the instrument.
• Make sure that the inside of the carrying case and the instrument are dry before closing the case. If moisture is trapped inside the case, it may cause the instrument to rust.
• If there is a crack or deformation in the rubber packing for the battery cover or external interface
hatch, stop using and replace the packing.
• To retain the waterproof property, it is recommended that you replace the rubber packing once every
two years. To replace the packing, contact your local dealer.

2. PRECAUTIONS
Speaker
• Do not press the speaker / luminance sensor / microphone hole using something with a pointed tip. Doing so will damage an internal waterproof sheet, resulting in a degraded waterproof property.
The Lithium Battery
• The lithium battery is used to maintain the OS Calendar & Clock function. It can back up data for
approximately 5 years of normal use and storage (Temperature = 20°, humidity = about 50%), but its lifetime may be shorter depending on circumstances.
Vertical and horizontal clamps
• Always fully release the vertical/horizontal clamps when rotating the instrument or telescope.
Rotating with clamp(s) partially applied may adversely affect accuracy.
Backing up data
• Data should be backed up (transferred to an external device etc.) on a regular basis to prevent data
loss.
Use under low temperatures (Low Temperature Model only)
• Do not use force to scrape off frost from the lens or display unit screen. Frost is an abrasive material
and may scratch the instrument.
• If ice or snow attaches itself to the unit, wipe it off with a soft cloth, or place the unit in a warm room
until the ice melts, and then wipe off the meltwater. Operating the unit with ice or snow attached may cause operation errors to occur.
• Wipe off condensation with a soft cloth before using the instrument. Not doing so may cause
operation errors to occur.
• The working duration of battery BDC70 will rapidly decline in cold temperatures. When using the
instrument in temperatures around -30°C, we recommend that you use an external battery (optional accessory). However, if you unavoidably must use battery BDC70 for measurements in temperatures around -30°C, recharge the battery in a warm room and keep the battery in a warm place such as your pocket until it is used. (Working duration of battery will change with environmental conditions.)
• The lens cap and lens hood may become difficult to attach in low temperatures. Keep them in a
warm place such as a pocket until attached.
• If the unit is carried between locations that have extreme temperature differences, protect the unit
from rapid temperature change by placing it in the carrying case.
• Please use the tribrach supplied as standard. If a different tribrach is used, angle measurement
errors may occur.

• TOPCON CORPORATION is not liable for the content of any transmission nor any content related thereto. When communicating important data, run tests beforehand to ascertain that communication is operating normally.
• Do not divulge the content of any transmission to any third party.
Radio interference when using Bluetooth technology
Bluetooth communication with the OS uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band. This is the same band used by the devices described below.
•Industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) equipment such as microwaves and pacemakers.
• portable premises radio equipment (license required) used in factory production lines etc.
• portable specified low-power radio equipment (license-exempt)
•IEEE802.11b/IEEE802.11g standard wireless LAN devices The above devices use the same frequency band as Bluetooth communications. As a result, using the OS within proximity to the above devices may result in interference causing communication failure or reduction of transmission speed.
Although a radio station license is not required for this instrument, bear in mind the following points when using Bluetooth technology for communication.
Regarding portable premises radio equipment and portable specified low-power radio
equipment:
• Before starting transmission, check that operation will not take place within the vicinity of
portable premises radio equipment or specified low-power radio equipment.
• In the case that the instrument causes radio interference with portable premises radio
equipment, terminate the connection immediately and take measures to prevent further interference (e.g. connect using an interface cable).
• In the case that the instrument causes radio interference with portable specified low-power radio
equipment, contact your local dealer.
When using the OS in proximity to IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g standard wireless LAN
devices, turn off all devices not being used.
• Interference may result, causing transmission speed to slow or even disrupting the connection
completely. Turn off all devices not being used.
Do not use the OS in proximity to microwaves.
• Microwave ovens can cause significant interference resulting in communication failure. Perform
communication at a distance of 3m or more from microwave ovens.
Refrain from using the OS in proximity to televisions and radios.

4. PRODUCT OUTLINE
• Televisions and radios use a different frequency band to Bluetooth communications.
However, even if the OS is used within proximity to the above equipment with no adverse effects with regard to Bluetooth communication, moving a Bluetooth compatible device (including the OS) closer to said equipment may result in electronic noise in sound or images, adversely affecting the performance of televisions and radios.
Precautions regarding transmission
For best results
• The usable range becomes shorter when obstacles block the line of sight, or devices such as
PDAs or computers are used. Wood, glass and plastic will not impede communication but the usable range becomes shorter. Moreover, wood, glass and plastic containing metal frames, plates, foil and other heat shielding elements as well as coatings containing metallic powders may adversely affect Bluetooth communication and concrete, reinforced concrete, and metal will render it impossible.
• Use a vinyl or plastic cover to protect the instrument from rain and moisture. Metallic materials
should not be used.
• The direction of the Bluetooth antenna can have adverse effects upon usable range.
Reduced range due to atmospheric conditions
• The radio waves used by the OS may be absorbed or scattered by rain, fog, and moisture from
the human body with the limit of usable range becoming lower as a result. Similarly, usable range may also shorten when performing communication in wooded areas. Moreover, as wireless devices lose signal strength when close to the ground, perform communication at as high a position as possible.
• TOPCON CORPORATION cannot guarantee full compatibility with all Bluetooth products on the market.
