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.
