1 NOMENCLATURE AND FUNCTIONS

13) Tracking Indicator

A man who is staying on line with the direction of GTS-820A series or automatic tracking status by emitted LED light (orange color) from GTS-820A series.

•Operation

Pressing [F3] key on screen three functions Tracking Indicator. The tracking indicator status will be changed according to the type of auto tracking mode and its conditions. A man from the prism side can recognize the status of instrument.

When angle measuring value turns stable during tracking still object, the tracking indicator changes from quick continuous flashing to quick intermittent flashing. So you can decide from the sign of flashing for recording data timing at one person surveying.
