9. CHANGING INSTRUMENT OPTIONS
&
Active Mode
Active mode is a setting that is concerned with the refreshing of displays and
energy consumption.
The angle detector mechanism employs the use of a special absolute
encoder, which enables the ON/OFF setting to be selected for active mode.
Active Mode OFF (default setting)
Since the display will refresh itself about every 1.5 seconds when the
instrument has not been operated for more than 1 minute, energy
consumption will be low. When operations are resumed, the display will
switch from refreshing itself every 1.5 seconds to 0.5 seconds.
This is suitable for operations (setting out, alignment, etc.) whereas the
instrument is fixed for a set period of time at a set angle.
Active Mode ON
The display is constantly refreshed about every 0.5 seconds. In comparison
to Active Mode OFF, energy consumption is somewhat higher.
This is suitable for successive measuring (set collection etc.)
