For a Sokkia Set030R/220/010 instru-
ment, the angle unit at the total station
must be set to degrees, minutes, sec-
onds. The angle setting at the CS does
not matter.

•
The communication settings on the TS
must match the default parameters for
that particular instrument type as seen
on the CS.

1. Total station ppm/scale:
•
Atmospheric ppm = 0
•
Geometric ppm = 0 or scale factor = 1
•
Prism constant = 0
•
The angular unit on both the total sta-
tion and controller must match
These settings ensure that the correct
coordinates are calculated at the CS. It is
still possible to apply the relevant atmos-
pheric and geometric ppm/scale factor val-
ues. These values must then be set on the
CS.
