Side Shots
18. Prior to shooting a benchmark or turning point,
you can shoot any number of leveling side shots
to compute the elevation for any arbitrary points.
Enter the point name in the SS Point field, and an
optional description in the Desc field. Since the
horizontal coordinates for the new point cannot
be computed from the leveling routine, you must
provide them manually in the N and E fields.
Once you tap Next > , you can begin taking the
necessary shots for the side shot in your shooting
sequence, as described in Step 7.
When you are finished, the new point will be
stored, and you will return to the previous screen
where you can select the next shot type. You will
not advance to a new setup until after a turning point or
benchmark is shot.
Note: Once a stakeout or side shot sequence is performed, the
backsight for the current setup will be computed so any future shots
from the same setup will only prompt you for foresight shots.
