Introduction
This manual describes the "Tie
Distance" program of the TPS 1100
Professional series.
The program calculates the length
and azimuth of a line connecting two
points.
Polygonal or Radial methods can be
used as shown in the illustrations.
The data for the points can either be
measured or retrieved from the
selected data job. Measured points
and points retrieved from the
selected data job can be used
together in the calculations, if the
station coordinates and orientation
are set correctly.
In Radial Mode, the program will
calculate the distance between the
last point measured (called a Radial
Point) (Pt2, Pt3 ...) and a fixed
Center Point (Pt1).
In Polygonal Mode, the program will
calculate the distance between the
last two points measured (eg. Pt3 -
Pt4).

Toggling between Polygonal and
Radial Mode at any time while
working is possible.
