automatically collect points either at a specified time interval or after
the rod has moved a specified horizontal distance.
Note: This routine only works when used with a robotic
total station in remote control mode.
Foresight: is the point name that will be used when
storing the first new point. Each successive point name
will automatically be incremented by the next available
point number.
Description: is the description that will be assigned to
all the points that are stored from this routine.
Time: When this radio button is selected, a point will
automatically be stored after each time specified in the
corresponding field passes.
Distance: When this radio button is selected, a point
will automatically be stored each time the prism is moved from the
last stored point by the horizontal distance specified in the
corresponding field.
Note: The accuracy that a point will be stored when auto collecting
by Distance will vary depending on how frequently the total station
measures a distance and how fast the prism is traveling.
