    • @4kequipment88
      @4kequipment88 3 місяці тому

      The sensors themselves are shockproof and waterproof, while being in a stainless steel bracket that is stuck to the machine via industrial grade 3M double sided tape. There is always a chance for damage, however in this case it's quite low.

    • @4kequipment88
      @4kequipment88 3 місяці тому

      The biggest factor for working under trees is the total satellite reception. The more satellite constellations that are enabled, the longer the system will hold a fixed position. Hope this helps!

  • @ron6625
    @ron6625 4 місяці тому

    I'd use Leica for lots of work that's going to be post-processed in the office or legal work. Trimble for construction. And topcon if I was poor and had no other choice. I really do like how much better Leica is when dealing with obstructions to the prism and keeping lock on prisms.

    Trimble correction broadcast goes also over cell (IBSS).

    • @kevin4148
      @kevin4148 11 днів тому

      All of these systems are capable of receiving corrections via cell modem. In larger countries with less reference station network density it is more common to use a local gps base station transmitting corrections over radio. Leica also offers local base station transmitting corrections over the internet to reduce cost of reference network access, and to avoid interference from other radio spectrum devices.

  • @sxnnycide

    Hey brother nice tutorial btw! Im learning how to use the total station and have a question if you dont mind. If im laying out a foundation and need to set the building corner off the property pins, would i make a new job under the same project and place the property pins under asbuilt?After that my understanding is from there i would go to layout lines, draw a line from points, then click over to see my X and Y and use my measurements from the plan. Appreciate the video man not alot of videos for these machines out there!

    • @4kequipment88
      @4kequipment88 7 місяців тому

      Yes! You should be able to measure your property pins under as-built, then go to the "Sketching" menu and draw in your building corner using the angle and distance from the plans. There are multiple ways to do this as well. Glad to help.

    • @rogwheel

      It is an audible signal that the instrument is tracking the prism. It comes from the factory turned on. It can be turned off very easily on the display of the gun.

    • @4kequipment88
      @4kequipment88 8 місяців тому

      The GR-5 is the same age as the Hiper V, same technology different housing. So therefore it has the same accuracy.

  • @AustinH57
    @AustinH57 8 місяців тому

    Would that added cab angle during the first horizontal calibration make the body sensor inaccurate at all? Or is this cal just between the boom and stick sensors?

    • @4kequipment88
      @4kequipment88 8 місяців тому

      Each section for the calibration only does certain sensor(s) at a time. The 2D Sensor (or body sensor) has an independent calibration that can be done or redone anytime in the settings.

    • @kevin4148

      You can see the antennas of trimble and topcoat are much larger - they have gps data processing hardware. The leica is different with the gps processing hardware in the yellow gps box next to the panel/screen.

    Hello, Sir I'm interested in buying ICON ICR80 total station, and need to run "Layout Objects" application to import IFC files, and layout construction objects (footings, columns, etc.).

    • @4kequipment88
