Input Box Controls
When point IDs are used to determine a value, the program will search for the point IDs in the current job. If not found
it will then search in the control job, if active.
Formatted Distance/Height Entries
Entries for distances or heights that include certain special or commonly understood measurement extensions are
automatically interpreted as a unit of measurement and converted to the working units as chosen in job setup. For
example, a target height entry of 2m is converted to 6.5617 feet if units are configured for feet. The extension can
appear after the number, separated by a space (2 m), or can be directly appended to the number (2m). For feet and inch
conversion, the second decimal point informs the software that the user is entering fractions (See Below). Recognized
text and their corresponding units are shown below:
 f or ft:
US Feet
 i or ift:
International Feet
 in:
Inches
 cm:
Centimeters
 m:
Meters
 #.##.#:
Feet and Inches (e.g. 1.5.3.8 = 1'5 3/8" either entry format is supported)
