1 Tolerances
1.1 Defining Tolerances
Description Before use of the mining applications, tolerance profiles have to be defined and
selected. The definition of tolerances can be done either via the Mining Data Manager
software or manually on the instrument. This chapter describes defining and
selecting tolerances manually. Refer to "6 Mining Data Manager" for details on using
the Mining Data Manager software.
Access 1. Select Programs from the Main Menu.
2. Select Tolerances from the Programs menu.
3. Enter the current PIN.
4. Press Cont to proceed to the tolerance profile screen.
)If a wrong PIN has been typed in 5 times, a Personal Unblocking code (PUK) is
required, which can be found on the instrument delivery papers. If the entered PUK
code is correct, then the PIN code is reset to default value "123456".

Tolerances
Define tolerances
step-by-step Step Description
1. Select the tolerance profile. Primary, Secondary or Tertiary.
2. Enter the limits for horizontal direction, horizontal distance and height.
3. Select the preferred sequence B’F’F’’B’’, B’F’B’’F’’, or B’B’’F’F’’, and
number of sets.
)B = Backsight point. F = Foresight point.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 for each of the three tolerance profiles.
5. Set the defined tolerances by pressing Cont.

1.2 Selecting Tolerance Profiles
Select tolerances
step-by-step
)• Tolerances themselves can be changed by using the PIN-protected Define
Tolerance application. Refer to "1.1 Defining Tolerances".
• If a tolerance was uploaded by the Mining Data Manager software, this tolerance
will appear as "Uploaded" and cannot be changed on the instrument.
Step Description
1. Start a mining application.
2. Select Tolerances.
3. Select Select Tolerances.
4. Select either a Primary, Secondary or Tertiary tolerance profile to be
applied.
5. Press Cont to set the selected profile.
6. Press:
Accept to accept the profile in the tolerances summary screen.
OR
Reject to reject the profile and return to the define tolerance profile
screen.

1.3 Mining PIN (Personal Identification Number)
Description The definition of tolerances, EDM and communication settings, is PIN protected to
prevent unauthorised changes. The Mining PIN is definable by the user. If a wrong PIN
has been typed in 5 times, a Personal Unblocking code (PUK) is required, which can
be found on the instrument delivery papers. If the entered PUK code is correct, then
the Mining PIN code is reset to default value "123456".
Set PIN code step-
by-step
)The default Mining PIN is "123456".
Step Description
1. Select Tools from the Main Menu.
2. Change to page 4/4 for Black&White display or to page Mining for
Color&Touch display.
3. Select MiningPIN.
4. Enter the current Mining PIN in PIN-Code:.
5. Press Cont.
6. Enter a personal Mining PIN Code (max. 6 characters numeric) in New PIN-
Code:.
7. Accept with Cont.

2 Peg Survey
2.1 Overview
Description The application Peg Survey is used:
• to establish a forward peg (point).
• to control the intermediate horizontal angle between backsight and foresight
points.
• to check the horizontal distances and heights of the backsight and foresight
points.
• to compute the coordinates of the foresight point.
Users can measure several sets in different sequences. The quality of measurement
is controlled by the tolerances which are set before starting Peg Survey.

2.2 Starting Peg Survey
Access 1. Select Programs from the Main Menu.
2. Select PegSurvey from the Programs menu.
3. Complete the application pre-settings by:
• Selecting a job, and
• Confirming the set of tolerances. Refer to "1.2 Selecting Tolerance Profiles".
4. Select Start to proceed to Input Station.
Input station step-
by-step Step Description
1. Enter the point ID of the station (Station:).
2. For manual entry of instrument height:
• Enter instrument height (hi:) of the station.
For measuring the instrument height:
• Turn the telescope to the azimuth with the help of the displayed
vertical angle (V:).
• Press Meas hi to measure distance to the peg.
)The sign for the instrument height is normally negative.
3. Press Cont to set the station and instrument height.
