TPS1200 Operation 4.5 Battery 4.5.1 Operating Principles ) 74 Primary use/charging • The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is delivered with an energy content as low as possible. • For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual to make only one charge/discharge cycle. • For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient.
Operation/Discharging • The batteries can be operated from -20°C to +55°C/-4°F to +131°F. • Operation Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; very high operating temperatures reduce the service life of the battery.

The configuration of the parameters and functions for an individual measuring technique are combined in a configuration set. Choicelist Displays the active reflector. All reflectors from Main Menu: Manage...\Reflectors. All listed reflectors can be selected.
TPS1200 Operation 4.8 86 Guidelines for Correct Results General ) TPS1200 instruments measure a distance using an invisible infrared laser beam which emerges coaxial from the telescope objective. For application programs without reflector a visible red laser beam is used which emerges in the same manner. The visible red laser beam is available for reflectorless instruments. Very short distances may be measured reflectorless with the infrared EDM to well reflecting targets.
When measurements are being made using the red laser EDM, the results may be influenced by objects passing between the EDM and the intended target surface. This occurs because reflectorless measurements are made to the first surface returning sufficient energy to allow the measurement to take place.
Operation ) ATR/lock ) ) ) TPS1200 88 Do not measure with two instruments to the same target simultaneously to avoid getting mixed return signals. Instruments equipped with an ATR sensor permit automatic angle and distance measurements to prisms. The prism is sighted with the optical sight. After initiating a distance measurement, the instrument sights the prism centre automatically. Vertical and horizontal angles and the distance are measured to the centre of the prism.

TPS1200 Check & Adjust 5 5.1 90 Check & Adjust Overview Description Leica instruments are manufactured, assembled and adjusted to the best possible quality. Quick temperature changes, shock or stress can cause deviations and decrease the instrument accuracy. It is therefore recommended to check and adjust the instrument from time to time. This can be done in the field by running through specific measurement procedures.
Every angle measured in the daily work is corrected automatically if the compensator and the Hz-corrections are activated in the instrument configuration. Select Main Menu: Config...\Instrument Settings...\Compensator to check the settings.
