Next, the Reference Closing Angle dialog appears. Enter the bearing or azimuth of the reference angle, or define the

reference angle with points by entering in the desired point numbers in the From Point and To Point fields. If using

bearing or azimuth, enter the bearing in DD.MMSS format and then select the correct quadrant from the format field

located at the bottom of the dialog. Once the reference angle has been defined, then the angular error display will

update with the calculated angular error. The measured closing bearing and measured closing azimuth is displayed at

the top of the dialog box. If the reference angle has been defined by point numbers, then the reference closing angle

field will update and display the defined angle. There is no need to select a format from the format field if point

numbers are used.

Pressing the OK button, or the enter key, will execute the angle balance process, and the process results will be

displayed. The results display shows the closure results before angle balance and after angle balance.
