Tracklight
Tracklight is a visible guide light that enables the rod holder to position themselves into the
instruments current line of sight. The tracklight can be used during stakeout in all operational modes,
and is also of great benefit when operating in robotic mode as a means of checking that the
instrument is tracking, or when trying to reacquire lock by walking into the sight line of the LockNGo
Tracker, or using the remote joystick control in robotic mode. Tracklight consists of a flashing two-
colored light, with each color lying in its own lateral projection sector. If the rod holder is to the left
of the measuring beam, they will see a red flashing light; if they are to the right, they will see a green
flashing light.

Tip –
You can use the tracklight for clearing sight lines and as an aid to find prisms in the dark
or unfavorable sighting conditions.

WARNING –
