  • Thanks to the e-bubble the operator can keep the attention on the display instead of looking on the bubble on the pole.

  • The acquisition of epochs is automatically stopped when the pole is out of the bubble.

  • The e-bubble information are retrieved from the sensors inside the Android controller.

The connection between the field controller and the TPS pole must be firm to ensure accurate results.

  • When a survey or stakeout is started, a window allowing to perform calibration of the electronic bubble is displayed.

  • To perform the calibration, use the physical bubble to hold the pole in proper position for some seconds.

  • At the end of the calibration procedure the position of the electronic bubble displayed in the survey and stakeout windows corresponds to the position of the physical bubble.

  • If the calibration procedure has been previously performed, and the controller does not change position referring to the pole, the procedure can be skipped and pass to next window.

  • While in survey or stakeout page click E-bubble icon to re-calibrate the e-bubble or disable it.
