Setting up of a Theodolite (Centering, Levelling, and Focusing)
đŻ Setting up of a Theodolite (Centering, Levelling, and Focusing)
1ď¸âŁ Centering
English:
Centering means positioning the theodolite exactly over the survey station mark (point on the ground). The vertical axis of the instrument must pass through this point.
Steps:
Place the tripod stand roughly over the station mark.
Adjust the tripod legs so that the instrument is at a convenient height.
Use the plumb bob or optical plummet to align the theodolite exactly above the station mark.

2ď¸âŁ Levelling
English:
Levelling ensures the horizontal plate of the theodolite is truly horizontal. This allows accurate angle measurements.
Steps:
Center the bubble of the level tube using foot screws.
Adjust two screws at a time to bring the bubble to the center.
Repeat the adjustment for all pairs of screws until the bubble remains centered.

3ď¸âŁ Focusing
English:
Focusing means adjusting the telescope to see a clear and sharp image of the object, without parallax error.
Steps:
First focus the eyepiece to see the crosshairs clearly.
Then focus the objective lens by pointing the telescope at the target.
Adjust until the target and crosshairs are both sharp and no relative movement is seen (no parallax).

Centering: Place the instrument exactly over the survey point.
Levelling: Make the instrument perfectly horizontal.
Focusing: Adjust the telescope to see the object clearly without parallax.
