  1. ATR measurements when hand-booking

    Automatic aiming (ATR) Description Automatic aiming is the function which recognises and measures the position of a prism using a CCD array. A laser beam is transmitted and the reflected beam is received by the built-in CCD array. The position of the reflected spot with respect to the centre of the CCD is computed. These automatic aiming offsets are used...
  2. GPS1200 – Auto-Logging for fast kinematic surveys (Spot Levels/Roads)

    When the kit is mounted on a vehicle for faster data acquisition, for example spot levels across sand flats, it is not practical to MEAS every point by pressing F1. Instead, go into Survey, press the SHIFT button, then F2 CONF to access SURVEY Configuration. Set the ‘Log Auto Pts’ to Yes, and configure as appropriate. Configuring Auto Points Main...
  3. New Leica AR20 Choke Ring Antenna

      SCCS are very pleased to announce the new visionary Leica AR20 3D Choke Ring Antenna. The new and unique 3D (inside) design brings unmatched multipath rejection across all GNSS frequency bands and improved phase centre stability. The AR20 antennas is designed for all reference station and monitoring applications, and is the ideal choke ring antenna for Network RTK. Features...
  4. Is your 1200's shutting down every 5mins?

    If your 1200 (TPS or GPS) continually shuts down after 5mins, it is not a fault with the instrument or batteries. This is due to a “Start Up & Power Down” settings (5. Interfaces / 3. General Settings / 6. Start Up & Power Down). Change the “Switch Off” option to “Never”.  
  5. Changing the Vertical Angle to “Running”

    When you want to take a reflectorless to a corner of a feature, which does not give an RL distance, take a distance (F2- DIST) to a close-by feature, then scroll up/down to the point you require and press F3-RECORD. To change the settings so that the vertical angle will change as you scroll up/down: Press the SHIFT then the...
