Abstract: This paper introduces the setup of the Remote Coordinate Measuring System (RCMS), which uses two T3000 informatic theodolites. The system data recording module is on-line storage but off-line operation. Angle measurements form two T3000s are transmitted automatically to a Wild GRE4, which store the observational data for later analysis. Using the RCMS, authors check the dead-weight deformation of a revised Casse-Grainian antenna, with a 25-inch diameter. The results indicated that the RCMS can monitor the dead-weight deformation when the antenna is in certain positions. !4
