Wild Heerbrugg Tachymat TC1
Sercel - Wild Heerbrugg Tachymat TC1
The first Total Station (still called a Tachymat) from Wild Heerbrugg in collaboration with Sercel. The instrument has both the telescope and the EDM in the same place with the EDM measuring around the telescope. What makes this instrument different is the mechanical buttons for setting the number of ppm. I am not certain it still works as I'm missing the correct power cable for powering it up. Will need to figure out which pin does what and then see if I can make it run again.
The chances of it still running are small however if I read the labels on the box correctly. One says: "Quarantined - do not use", another "museum '79-'80 - get rid" and the last "distance + angle needs battery - I.R. needs prism".
