5. Enter the direction (azimuth/bearing) from the reference point to

the offset point. You can enter a direction in one of the following

ways:

• Using the horizontal angle returned from the conventional

instrument if you took a shot.

• Occupying a point on line with the reference point and the

offset point. After you occupy the reference point, tap

Direction from Two Points and then occupy a point on line with

the reference point and the offset point. When you are done

occupying the on line point, you will be prompted for the
direction to your offset point.

• Entering a value by hand, such as when you measure the

offset direction with a compass.

6. Tap Store to store the offset point.

7. Store any number of additional offset points from this GPS

reference point. The shot data for each point is recorded in .RAW
data. Tap Close when you are done storing points.

Feature Collection

Use this method if you want to continuously collect multiple points

using either a measurement interval or by manually accepting each

point. You can select from six different data collection modes.

1. Go to the Survey > Data Collection screen.
2. Enter a point name in the Point field. If this point already exists,

you will be prompted to overwrite or choose the next available

point.

Note: If you have Store GPS Raw Data set to + Bl,CV or + Bl,CV + Rx
Raw,

feature collection will not store base line records because there

is no discrete site occupation of each point. Therefore, the point name
does not need to be a valid Site Id.

3. Enter a Description.
