The new point is computed and stored and the

Traverse Now or Later prompt will open asking if

you want to advance to the new point now or later.
For this example, tap the

Traverse Now

button.

The New Occupy Point dialog box will open, shown
here, which displays details of the new setup. You

can see that the previous foresight point is now the

current occupy point and the previous occupy point is
now the current backsight point.

Note: If you selected to traverse later, the traverse point

is still stored, but you would then have the opportunity
to shoot additional side shots before you advanced to the

next point. This is useful when you want to shoot the

traverse shot first before any settling occurs to the
tripod. In that situation, when you are ready to advance,
you would tap Traverse again where you would then
answer to a prompt that asks if you are ready to advance

or re-shoot the traverse point. (If you select to re-shoot

the traverse point, the previous traverse point is still stored, but as a
side shot.)

d. Since we are running in Manual Mode and cannot send data

to an instrument, tap (Close). You will notice at the top of
the Traverse Sideshot screen that the occupy point has been
updated to 4, the backsight is updated to 1, and the foresight
is updated to 5, which is the next available point name.
