6.2.2 Atmospheric Refraction and Earth Curvature Correction
When calculating the horizontal distance and the height differences, the instrument
will automatically correct the effect of atmosphere refraction and the earth curvature
the correction.
The atmosphere refraction and the earth curvature are calculated by the formulas as
follows:
Corrected Horizontal Distance
:
D=S * [cosα+ sinα* S * cosα(K-2) / 2Re]
Corrected Height Differentia
:
H= S * [sinα + cosα* S * cosα(1-K) / 2Re]
If the correction of atmosphere refraction and the earth curvature are neglected, the
calculation formula of horizontal distance and the height differentia are
:
D=S·cosα
H=S·sinα
In formula:
K=0.14

NOTE:
The atmosphere refraction modulus of this instrument has been set as: K=0.14.
it also can be set as :K=0.2,or be set shut (0 VALUE).(refer to “14”SYSTEM
