5.8 L/R

Press [F2] to make the horizontal angle mode switched between

right angle (HR) and left angle (HL).

HR: Right angle mode .When the alidade is rotated clockwise,

the horizon angle is increscent;

HL: Left angle mode. When the alidade is rotated anticlockwise,

the horizon angle is decreasing.

5.9 V mode

Vz: Zenith Mode;
Vh:Vertical angle Mode (it is 0°00′00″when the telescope is

level. The angle of elevation is positive and the angle of depression is
negative.)

Other instructions:

If the compensator is over the range of ±210″

，

then the vertical

angle display box will tip you ―Over!‖;

When setting horizontal angle, which is azimuth of target point,

so you can set the displayed angle as azimuth.
