Save: Use this icon to save a report of the inverse.

The results screen will display the coordinates of the base points, the inverse bearing, the distance from the base points

to the calculated INT1 point (and INT2 for distance intersections), and the coordinate data for the calculated points.

Note that calculated points are labeled as Int1 and Int2 until the points are stored. These Option Buttons are present on

all Map screens displayed while in the Intersections routine. Once Store is selected or the Enter key pressed, the

stored point will inherit the specified point number, description, and the elevation displayed at the bottom of the screen

(optional). There can be only one solution for a bearing-bearing intersection.

All Intersect routines handle the 400 circle, if configured to grads/gons within Job Settings, Units.

Bearing-Distance

Define the Bearing from the first point, then define the known horizontal distance from the second point.

Select OK and the map screen will appear showing a circle radiating from the distance base point and a line from the

bearing base point, defined by the entered bearing. The line is extended to intersect the circle at the two possible

solutions.

Pressing Enter or Store will display the prompt "Pick a Solution". To select the point, simply pick it from the screen.

Picking near the desired solution is sufficient. The program will select the nearest solution position. Pressing Enter

again will accept the second possible solution for the intersection.

Distance-Distance

Enter the known horizontal distances from both points.
