The following conditions must be met in order to use the Remote
Elevation routine.
• The base and rover must be set.
• You must be using a geoid model as part of your vertical
coordinate system.
• The horizontal coordinate system must be solved.
1. Open the Survey > Remote Elevation screen.
2. If your benchmark is not in the job file, select the Add Benchmark
checkbox, enter the Elevation, and specify a new point number in
the New Point field.
Note: You cannot enter a new elevation for an existing point using the
Remote Elevation routine.
3. If your benchmark is a point in the job file, enter the point name.
4. Occupy the benchmark with the rover and tap
Occupy Benchmark to access the Occupy Control Point screen and
begin measurements to the point.
5. When you are satisfied with the measurement, tap Accept. You
will return to the Remote Elevation screen and the base station’s
newly calculated elevation is displayed. The occupied benchmark
point has now been added to the job file as a GPS control point.
6. If the new base elevation is acceptable, tap Accept from the
Remote Elevation screen to open the Adjust with Projection
wizard, which will show a preview of the points to be adjusted,
including the update to the base position elevation. Tap Apply to
update the vertical coordinate system in the job file, and apply
the adjustment to the job file points.
