3.9 Vertical Angle Tilt Correction
When the tilt sensors are activated,automatic correction ofverticalangle
for mislevelment is displayed.
To ensure a precise angle measurement, tilt sensors must be turned on.
The display can also be used to precise level the instrument. If the (Tilt
over) display appears the instrument is out of automatic compensation
range and must be leveled manually.
The display of vertical angle is unstable when instrument is on an un-
stable stage or a windy day. You can turn off the auto tilt correction
function of Vangle in this case.

4. Angle Measurement
4.1 Measuring HorizontalAngle (Right) and VerticalAngle
　　　　Make sure the mode is in Angle measurement
Reference: How to Collimate
① Point the telescope toward the light back ground. Turn the diopter
ring andadjust the diopterso that the corss hairs are clearly observed.
② Aimthe target at the cross hair of the sighting collimator.Allow a
certain space between the sighting collimator and yourself for
collimating.
③ Focus the target with the focusing knob.
※ If parallaxis created between the corss hairs and the target when
your eyes move vertically or horizontally, focusing is incorrect or di-
opter adjustment is poor. This affects precision in measurement. Elimi-
nate the parallaxby carefully focusing and using diopter adjustment.
① Collimate the 1st target(A).
② Set horizontal angle of target
A at 0°00＇ 00, press the ［Ｆ１］
（0 set) key and press the ［Ｆ３］
(YES) key.
③ Collimate the 2nd target (B).
The horizontal angle between B

7. Layout
Layout mode has two functions which are setting of layout points and
setting new points using coordinate data in the internal memory.Also,
if the coordinate data is not stored in the internal memory, this can be
input from key board. The coordinate data is loaded from PC to the
internal memory via RS232C.
The coordinate data
The coordinate data is memorized into a file, the memory has three re-
corded parts, one is for measured data, another is for coordinate data,
and the last one is for PCODE data.
For the internal memory, refer to Chapter 11”Memory Manager Mode”
The number of coordinate data
(In case not using the internal memory in the data collect mode), max.
8000 points. Becuase the internal memory covers both data collection
mode and layout mode, the number of coordinate data will be decreased
when the data collection mode is used.
1)When turning off the power, ensure that you are in the main menu
screen or main angle measurement mode. This ensures completion of
the memory access process and avoids possible damage of the stored
data.
2) It is recommended for safety to charge the battery beforehand and
prepared fully charged spare batteries.
3)When recording newpoint data, remember to considerthe amount of
internal memory.
7.1 Layout menu operation
1) Selecting a file for layout.

8. Data collection
The RTS238/538 is able to store the measured data into the internal
memory.
The internal memory is shared by the measured data files and the
coordinate data files.
Measured data: The collected data is memorized into a files.
The number of measurement points: ( In case not using the internal
memory in layout mode)
MAX. 8000 points.
Because the internalmemory covers both data collection mode and lay-
out mode, the number of measurement points will be decreased when
the layout mode is used.
1)When turning off the power, ensure that you are in the basic
measurement mode. This ensures completion of the memory access
process and avoids possible damage to the stored data.
2)It is recommended for safety to charge the battery beforehand and
prepare fully charged spare batteries.
1) Select data collection file, it stored the collected data.
２）Select coordinate data file. The Occ. point coordinate data and
backsight coordinate data could be recalled.
3) Setting occupied point, include instrument height and Occ.point PT#
and coordinate.
4) Setting backsight point and backsight angle.
5) Setting measured point prismheight. Executing data collection. Stor-
ing into internal memory.
