Field Description
Tilt Corr. Off Tilting compensation deactivated.

zontal directions are corrected by the standing axis tilt.
For corrections depending on the HA Corr: setting,
refer to the table "Tilt and horizontal corrections".
☞
If the instrument is used on an unstable base, for example a shaking plat-
form or ship, the compensator should be deactivated. This avoids the com-
pensator drifting out of it's measuring range and interrupting the measur-
ing process by indicating an error.
H.A. Corr. On Horizontal corrections are activated. For normal opera-
tion the horizontal correction should remain active.
Each measured horizontal angle will be corrected,
depending on the vertical angle.
For corrections depending on the Tilt Corr: setting,
refer to the table "Tilt and horizontal corrections".
Off Horizontal corrections are deactivated.
H.A. Incr. Right Set horizontal angle to clockwise direction measure-
ment.
Left Set horizontal angle to counter-clockwise direction
measurement. Counter-clockwise directions are dis-
played but are saved as clockwise directions.
V.A. Setting Sets the vertical angle.
