Inside the Trimble X7: Deep Dive into Trimble X7 Auto-Calibration 12 12 Summary of Features and Benefits Features Benefits Automatic Calibration • Ensures data accuracy from scan to scan • Angular and distance correction • Alidades encoder system adopted from total stations for precision • Accounts for alignment deviations inside the scanner head and adjusts to vibration and even shock • Smart calibration monitors environmental conditions and instrument temperature and vertical speed • Smart calibration only applies correction when required • No targets or user interaction required • No need for annual calibrations reduces cost of ownership and accelerates ROI • Enables industry leading 2 year warranty Protected Center Unit* • Integrates high speed deflection unit for scanning, internal tilt sensors, EDM source, camera system and laser pointer in one protected center unit • Optics protection in all weather conditions (IP55) • Safe operation X-Drive Vertical Deflection Drive* • Integrates survey grade servo drive with high speed scanning • Concept of a vertical servo system enables the entire center unit to rotate around the trunnion axis • Enables automatic calibration and self-leveling • Reliable; long life; low friction, vibration, power consumption and noise • Enables industry leading 2 year warranty Automatic Self-Leveling* • Survey grade level compensation for both upright and upside down orientations within range of ±10° • Survey grade accuracy <3" = 0.3mm @ 20m • Scans with <45° tilt have coarse grade level accuracy • Real time level monitoring will not allow scan acquisition >45° tilt and will stop scans when level is disrupted • Verify verticality and levelness with confidence • Supports in field registration Integrated Camera System* • 3 x 10 MP cameras for fast image acquisition of 1-2 min • Quality full panoramas and scan colorization • Calibrated, coaxial cameras with optical axis aligned to center of deflection mirror to minimize parallax between images and scans • HDR and white balance correction to ensure image quality Laser Pointer • Geo-referencing • Single point measurements * See the White Paper - Inside Trimble X7 X-Drive Technology for more details on this feature.
