Slope Staking Offset Stake

The following screen is only accessed if you choose to stake a point at
a specified offset away from the catch point.

Station

: displays the current station being slope staked.

Offset from CP

: is the offset from the catch point

specified in the previous screen.

From Gun to Design Point

: displays the angle and

distance information from the total station to 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 the current target, 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 current target location.

3.

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

Note: The

&LUFOH =HUR button is not available when using a robotic

total station.

%DFN : returns to the previous screen.

6WDNH ! : accesses the next screen, which is identical to the third

Stake Points screen, described on Page R-114.
