whether angles are prompted as azimuth or bearings.

Use these edit controls to create intersections that are defined by parallel offsets to the defined or computed
direction.
All Intersect routines create SP records in the raw file, storing the calculated coordinates for each new point. This SP
record is identical to records created by keyboard input.
Bearing-Bearing
This method locates a point at the intersection of two lines. Select Point 1 by entering the desired point number, or
pressing the Point List icon and selecting the desired point. Pressing the Map icon will allow for selection of the
desired point directly from the screen. Note that when selecting a point from the screen, if the desired point cannot be
determined from the picked point on the screen, a listing of the nearest points to the desired location will appear
allowing for verification of the targeted point. If the list appears, select the desired point from the list by clicking on it.
Define the bearing from the first point by typing in the bearing or by specifying two point IDs. Repeat the procedures
for defining the bearing from the second point.
Bearings can be entered in three forms:
 SE40.5945 becomes S40d59’45”E
 S40.5945E becomes S40d59’45”E
 240.5945 becomes S40d59’45”E
Once data entry is complete, press the OK button. The calculated point will appear on the screen with the input data
detailed at the bottom of the screen. Store, Modify (review and revise) and RESULTS Options are located on the right
side of the Map screen.
