Stake Points – Screen Two

Design point

: displays the name of the design point that

was entered in the first screen.

Description

: displays the description assigned to the

design point.

Angle Right

: is the horizontal angle to turn to face the

design point.

Horz. distance

: is the horizontal distance from the

occupy point to the design point.

Vert Distance

: is the vertical distance from the occupy

point to the design point.

ZE to Rod

: is the zenith angle required to face the prism

over the design point.

&LUFOH =HUR : is used to modify the circle on the total

station so that the angle right reading will be zero when it is facing
toward the design point, which can sometimes be easier than turning
to an obscure angle value. When this button is tapped, the following
actions will occur:

1.

A new backsight circle value is computed, sent to the
instrument and stored in the raw data

2.

The

Angle Right

value is changed to zero to reflect the change.

The instrument now needs to be turned horizontally to zero to
face the design point.

3.

To prevent errors, the backsight set up is invalidated when
exiting the Stakeout dialog if this button has been used. A
circle zeroed on a design point is meaningless once the design
point has been staked.

4.

The first time

&LUFOH =HUR is used during a stakeout session, a

dialog will appear to warn that the original backsight
reference will be lost.
