HOW THIS USER’S GUIDE IS ORGANISED
This user’s guide is sectionalised with each section dealing with a specific topic.
Generally speaking, background material and technical explanations are found in
the later sections, while practical instruction occurs at the beginning. A list of
tables and specifications are found at the end of the manual.
Each section of the user’s guide is kept, as nearly as possible, self-contained and
free-standing so that the sections can be read in any order. General cross-
references are provided where necessary, but complicated notation of the
sections and paragraphs is avoided.
A very brief description of the user guides sections are given below but the
contents page provides the titles of each section.
INTRODUCTION: This section summarises the CMG-1T sensor, the
levelling system and the micro-controller which controls
