Getting Started 3
Measurement settings
To view the measurement settings,hold down [MSR1] or
[MSR2] for one second.
Use
[^] or [v] to move the cursor between the fields. Use
[<] or [>] to change the value in the selected field.
Target field
If the measurement is started with the Target field set
to Prism, there is a dash “–” in front of the prism
constant.
The symbol then constantly runs from left to right over
the prism constant in the display.
Rec mode field
Field Values
Target • N 2" and N 5" : Prism / N-Prism
• K 2" and K 5" : Prism / Sheet
Const (prism constant) –999 mm through 999 mm
Mode • Precise
•Normal
•Fast
AVE (Average count) 0 (Continuous) through 99
Rec mode One of the following:
• MSR only
•Confirm
•ALL
Incorrect Target settings may result in measurements outside the precision and intervals specified for the
instrument.
A measurement made immediately after changing the target setting may take a longer time than usual.The
Target setting is used to apply better cyclic-error adjustment in distance measurement. It efficiently eliminates
multipath reflection.
The Rec mode setting controls how the [MSR1] and [MSR2] keys operate in the BMS.
The MSR only setting is the default measurement mode. After a measurement, the instrument stops in the BMS
and waits for you to press [ENT] before recording the point.
The Confirm setting displays the Record PT screen before data is recorded.
The ALL setting is a quick shooting and recording mode. The instrument automatically records the point using
the default PT/CD. The instrument then returns to the BMS for the next measurement.
