4. Instrucións de funcionamento
The Sfaira ONE Plus is designed for efficient and accurate surveying. Here's how to operate it:
4.1 Initializing the IMU Tilt Function
For accurate tilt compensation, the built-in IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) needs to be initialized:
- Once the device is powered on and connected, hold the range pole with the Sfaira ONE Plus attached.
- Gently shake the pole for approximately 5 seconds. This motion helps the IMU calibrate and achieve optimal performance for tilt surveying.
This image illustrates the key features of the Sfaira ONE Plus's inertial navigation technology, including its 60° tilt angle capability, ±1cm accuracy, ability to track 50 satellite signals, and a rapid 5-second initialization time.
4.2 Using the SingularPad Survey Software
