The Auto Collect screen allows users with robotic total stations to

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.
