Message
Meaning
What to do
Out of tilt range
Displayed when the instrument is tilted
beyond the vertical comp ensation range
(±3') in case 1 axis automatic compensation is
selected. This messagemay be temporarily
displayed if the instrument is turned too fast.
Re-level the instrument. Repair is
needed if the message is displayed
when it is properly leveled.
Excess data
The input data exceeds the allowable
range.
Press the [ESC] key and enter the
correct data.
Mismatched
Target
●
The distance is measured by Prism at
Reflector sheet mode, and the
distance is over than 1000m.
●
The distance is measured by Prism or
Reflector sheet at Reflectorless
mode, and the distance is over than
200m.
Select the correct target mode.
Target is too
close.
●
The measurement distance is less
than 1.5m at Reflector sheet mode.
●
The measurement distance is less
than 1.5m at Prism mode.
Select a longer point, or use a tape
measure.
Unsuitable
Condition
●
Under too strong sun light.
●
Unstable light value owing to shimmer
or obstacles.
●
Reflector sheet, Target and Prism do
not face the instrument.
●
Reflector sheet, Target and Prism are
not correctly sighted.
●
Measurement range is over at
Reflectorless mode.
●
Sufficient signal does not return by
sighting sharp edge etc. at
Reflectorless mode.
Change the object that has much
better reflectivity, or use a reflecting
sheet, or wait until the sun activity
has weakened.

Li-batt.voltage
is low
The Date Clock is powered by the built-in lithium
battery. The lithium battery needs to be replaced in
five years. The timing of battery replacement
varies depending on the frequency of use and the
environment of where the instrument is stored
while not in use.
Have the lithium battery replaced by the
dealer from whom the instrument was
purchased.

2 Atmospheric Correction
The speed at which light travels through the air varies depending on the temperature and
atmospheric pressure. The R-200 series is designed to measure distances at the speed of light
in order to measure accurately, Atmospheric Correction needs to be used. The instrument is
