Tilt Calibration

Once you have set up the base station and rover, initialized VRS or RTX, it is possible to enable the tilt compensation feature. Complete the plumb pole routine to calibrate the rover pole. After calibration, it is possible to layout or collect without leveling the rover pole.

 

  • The use of the quick release is not recommended when using Tilt Compensation.

  • Tilt compensation will not work with a pole less than 1.5 meters in height.
