Checking the Instrument Constant
6.1
The instrument constant is a numerical value used to automatically correct for the
displacement between the mechanical and electrical centers when measuring
distances. The instrument constant is set by the manufacturer before the instrument
is shipped. However, to ensure the highest operational accuracy, we recommend
that you check the instrument constant several times a year.
To check the instrument constant, you can either compare a correctly measured base
line with the distance measured by the EDM, or follow the procedure below.
To check the instrument constant:
1.
Set up the instrument at Point P, in as flat an area as possible.
2.
Set up a reflector prism at Point Q, 100 m away from Point P. Make sure that
you take the prism constant into account.
3.
Measure the distance between Point P and Point Q (PQ).
4.
Install a reflector prism on the tripod at Point P.
5.
Set up another tripod at Point R, on the line between Point P and Point Q.
6.
Transfer the NPL-302 instrument to the tripod at Point R.
7.
Measure the distance from Point R to Point P (RP), and from Point R to Point Q
(RQ).
About 100 m
