Slope Staking – Screen Four
The fourth screen is used to perform the actual slope staking shots.
Height of Rod
: is the rod height.
;
Coarse EDM (Fast Shot)
: When checked, sets the total
station to coarse mode for faster, but slightly less-precise
measurements.
The first button selects the type of slope that will be used
between the catch point and hinge point from the
following options:
•
$XWRPDWLF 6ORSH : selects the slope based on the
current rod position. If the rod is above the
hinge point, a cut slope is computed. If the rod is
below the hinge point, a fill slope is computed.
•
)RUFH &87 6ORSH : forces all computations to be
based on a cut slope.
•
)RUFH ),// 6ORSH : forces all computations to be
based on a fill slope.
The second button selects which information is displayed in the lower
corner of the screen from the following options:
•
9HUWLFDO 0DS : displays a cross-sectional view at the current
station.
Note: When you tap a map view, an expanded view of the same map
will fill the screen.
Note: The Vertical Map will show an
X
at the location of each
previous shot. This can be useful in determining if the current
terrain will never intersect the slope (no catch point).
•
+RUL]RQWDO 0DS : displays an overhead view of the job.
•
6KRW 'DWD : displays the shot data for the latest shot.
