• IH and PH
IH stands for “Instrument Height” and PH stands for “Prism Height”.
• The PowerTopoLite manual mainly describes the R-2500NS special functions, and the
basic operations are described in the (basic) R-2500NS manual. Therefore, refer to the
R-2500NS basic manual regarding the R-2500NS general instrument operations.
The PowerTopoLite screens vary with the selections of the “Preference”.
The factory default settings of the Preference are shown there. It is also possible to select
“Process type” that takes over the functionality of “PowerTopoLite” or “Structure type”
that takes over the functionality of our past product in ”Action Method Selection”.
• The input range of the X, Y and Z Coordinate is “-99999999.998” - “99999999.998”.
• The input range of the Instrument and Prism height is “-9999.998” - “9999.998”.
• The PC, PointCodeList, is added to the PN, Coordinates X, Y, Z and IH (PH or IH) and
you can input your desired attributes for the point. If you have PointCodeList in the job
named “PointCodeList”, you can easily select one of the PointCode from the list or edit
one of them after pressing [ENT]. Please note, that Point Code, which is saved in the other
job can not be referred to as a list.
• There are two Coordinates types: Rectangular and Polar.
The RO,VO,DO,TO offset and the remote measurement are possible when you select the
Rectangular Coordinates.
The RO,DO offset is possible when you select the Polar Coordinates.
• When you measure in EDM SETTINGS of COARSE TRACKING, the R-2500NS
displays a distance value to two decimal places. However, distance data of polar
coordinates are displayed by EDIT function to three decimal places, and sent, to four
decimal places. So, “0“ or “00” is added to the distance data after the third decimal point in
COARSE TRACKING mode.
For example
Displayed value:
123.45
Displayed by EDIT:
123.450
Sent polar data:
123.4500
• Rectangular coordinates is displayed, stored, and sent to three decimal places even if in
COARSE TRACKING or FINE MEASURE mode.
• You can change the distance measurement mode during measuring operation by pressing
the EDM key at the MEASURE and VPM functions.
• The same Point Name of the plural polar points can be saved.
