• The operating status of the total station (IDLE/ MEASURING/Locked)

• The quality of the radio link between the robotic total station and the data

collector.

instrument:

instrument direction

LockNGo button: Enables or disables the lock-and-go feature

Stop button: Stops the current turn or search operation

or angles to turn the instrument to.
