6. SETTINGS FOR THE SRX/NET
26
When Turning fails to detect the prism, an error occurs
When the laser beam from the RC-Controller is reflected off an unrelated object the SRX/NET
completes Turning operation pointing at the object instead of the RC-Controller. When this happens,
press
[RC Cont]
to nullify the current measurement position and continue Turning operation.
&
Lost Prism
In the event that an obstacle prevents the SRX/NET sighting the target during Auto Tracking,
the instrument will predict the direction in which the target will travel and continue Auto Tracking
based on this prediction for the time period set in "Forecast time". If the SRX/NET re-acquires
the target in this predicted direction, Auto Tracking continues without change. If the target is not
re-acquired however, the target is considered "lost" ("Target lost" status) and the SRX/NET
enters either "Prism wait" or "Search" mode. When "Prism wait" has been selected in "Target
lost" and the target enters the field of view or a Turning command is received from the RC-
Controller within 60 seconds, the SRX/NET will search for the target, then resume Auto
Tracking. If the target is not re-acquired within 60 seconds, sighting terminates.
Start Auto Tracking procedure again from step 1.
