Leica TC1205 total station with 5” angle accuracy. The new TPS1200 is a true workhorse for all professionals who require an instrument that is easy to learn and is optimized for field usage. All TPS1200 will be delivered with more applications than ever.

Angle measurement

The highly accurate and reliable angle measurement system consists of a static line-coded glass circle, which is read by a linear

CCD array. A special algorithm determines the exact position of the code lines on the array and determines the precise

measurement instantly. As the code on the glass circle is absolute and continuous, no initialization of the instrument is required

prior to measurements.

A dual axis compensator constantly monitors both axes of the vertical axis tilt. The compensator consists of an illuminated line

pattern on a prism, which is reflected twice by a liquid mirror forming the reference horizon. The reflected image of the line

pattern is read by a linear CCD array and then used to mathematically determine both tilt components. These components are

then used to immediately correct all angle measurements.
