  "textContent": "The present disclosure provides a geodetic instrument () adapted to determine a direction and/or a distance to a target. The geodetic instrument includes an attachment device () for attaching the geodetic instrument to a holding arrangement (); a motorized positioning arrangement for aiming a line of sight (L) of the geodetic instrument via rotation and/or translation of at least a part of the motorized position arrangement relative to the holding arrangement, and a controller (). The controller is configured to, upon determining that a setting up of the geodetic instrument is required, provide a control sequence to the motorized positioning arrangement for causing a series of oscillatory rotational and/or translational movements of the at least a part of the motorized positioning arrangement. A method of setting up a geodetic instrument is also provided.",
