    Leica Captivate: TS16 Check and Adjust

    For the first step you will need to


    position a Leica Round prism
    approximately 100+m away from
    your total station at roughly the same
    height as your total station.
    1

    Level the instrument and give it 15


    minutes to adjust to the temperature
    outside. In the meantime, go into
    your
    Measure and target settings
    (Settings\TS Instrument\Measure
    2 and Target) and make sure you’ve
    selected the Leica Round Prism, the
    Measure mode as Single and that
    your
    target aiming is set to Manual. OK
    those
    settings.
    Then from the main menu of the
    instrument go to Settings\TS
    Instrument then Check and
    Adjust
    3

    Select “Check and adjust the


    compensator, index error…”

    Tick the box to calibrate the
    automatic target aiming (you MUST
    use a prism, preferably round prism).
    If you have an Imaging instrument
    5 you can also calibrate telescope
    camera. Then
    simply manually aim accurately at the
    centre of the prism and press Meas.

    If the instrument is robotic it will then


    change to face 2 and you can
    manually
    aim at the same target and press
    Meas
    6 again.

    Repeat the procedure two more


    times
    (adding another calibration loop),
    then
    finish the calibration and store the
    7 results.

    You will then be presented with the


    results of the adjustment (hopefully
    minimal). Then press finish to store
    the
    8 results.

    Then we can check the tilting axis.
    For
    this one we need to position the
    prism
    27° above or below the horizontal
    9 plane
    of the total station.

    Select “Check and adjust the tilting


    axis”
    then press Next.

    10

    Manually aim at the prism/target


    centre
    and press Meas.

    11

    Repeat in face 2.

    Then repeat the procedure twice


    more.

    14

    Then Finish the calibration and


    accept
    the results if acceptable
    15

    You can also adjust the compensator


    alone. If you have completed the
    combined adjust (step 1) you have
    16 already adjusted the compensator
    and do not have to carry out this
    step.

    To carry out the adjustment you do
    not
    need to aim to a prism, the
    17 instrument
    just needs to be level. Select Check
    &
    adjust compensator. Then aim at a
    specific point and press Meas.

    If you have a robotic instrument it will


    turn to face 2 and you have
    completed 1
    18 measurement run.

    Repeat the run twice more then


    select
    finish to accept the new compensator
    19 values.

    For further details on the Check and Adjust procedure please consult the Leica
    Captivate Technical Reference Manual which covers the subject in detail.
