Auto Level by Using Profile Leveling.: Equipment Details

The document provides instructions for a virtual lab experiment to determine elevations of various points using an auto level. The procedure involves using keys to move around a 3D environment, place a tripod and auto level, level the instrument, and move a staff to take elevation readings at multiple points. Key steps are to select points, position the tripod and auto level, level the instrument, move the staff to points and take readings, and repeat for all points. The goal is to find elevations of different points in a simulated 3D environment.

We get a whole 3D and realistic environment, which is user friendly, as soon as the experiment starts.

Control stations are marked as 0/1,0/2 etc in longitudinal direction 20 m apart from each other and 1,2,3 at a distance of 3m,6m,9m respectively from 0/1 in the transverse direction and 1,2,3 on the opposite side in the same manner. Step 2: For movement in a 3 D environment use following keys:W Forward, S backward, Aleft, Dright, Qup, Zdown. Step 3: Select the required points and place the tripod at those points using tripod keys. Tripod keys: 1. Tripod translational motion = left shift + Up, Down, Left, Right (Arrows Keys) 2. Tripod Rotational Movement = right shift + Up, Down, Left, Right (Arrow Keys) Step 4: Now place the auto level on the tripod with the help of auto level keys and level instrument with respect to the ground.

Auto level Keys: 1. Auto level Translational Movement = left ctrl + Up, Down, Left, Right (Arrow Keys) 2. Auto level Rotational Movement = right ctrl + Up, Down, Left, Right (Arrow Keys) Step 5: On screen instruction (press L to show/hide leveling panel, press 0 for telescopic view)

Instructions on screen

The instrument can be levelled by pressing L.

Arrow keys (Left, Right, Up, Down) are used for moving the Leveling screws. Bring the pond bubble in the centre. Step 5: Now put staff on the required point (A, B, C, D, E) with the help of staff movement keys. Staff Movement: Left mouse click= moves in any direction. Right mouse click = up and down. Middle mouse click = rotation in any direction Step 6: Press 0 for the telescopic view (to see the reading on the staff).

Use +/- or M/N keys to zoom in and zoom out. Use R/T for blurring or sharpening the cross hairs. Step 7: Take staff reading and repeat steps 5 and 6 for taking readings of other points.
