beam, the focus and aperture are xed. Targets that are recognised by the
PowerLock vision system are visualised within the image of the Overview
Camera. By this, you can identify and select reectors to lock on and take
measurements.
2.5.8 Meteo Station
The air temperature, air pressure and humidity affect the refraction index of
the air, which causes a change in velocity of propagation and wavelength
of the measurement beam. These changes can inuence the values of the
distance measurements. The built-in Meteo Station provides environmental
information on air temperature, air pressure and relative humidity, which
is used to calculate the current refraction index of the surrounding atmo-
sphere. The internal Meteo Station reads the information from an internal
probe, optionally two additional external temperature sensors can be con-
nected, one for the ambient air temperature and one for the object temper-
ature.
☞
To achieve the highest possible measurement accuracy it is
strongly recommended to determine the ambient temperature
using the provided external temperature sensor.
