Topo Dialog Pop-up Menu (Optical Survey)
To access additional commands and options available in the Optical Topo survey dialogs.
The dialog pop-up menu is available by clicking
in the top left corner and includes additional command options which can be useful in the field during survey.
Note: Actually available menu items depend on the current job, survey configuration and the current survey task.
- Measure - click the item to expand the sub-menu:
- Sideshot - to measure individual points.
- Traverse - to measure traverse points.
- List of offset measurement modes. More...
- Setup - click the item to expand the sub-menu:
- Reference CL - to specify a reference centerline for a topo task. The offset values from the line and distance from the first point of the line can help you to perform the topo survey.
- Reference Surface - to specify a reference surface for a topo task. The cut / fill value from the reference surface can help you to perform the topo survey.
- Backsight - to setup the backsight location.
- Topo Output Config - to configure settings for data output in the Topo and Auto Topo survey.
- PTL Mode - to setup the point to line method of interpretation of point coordinates. Enabled PTL mode is marked with
. The PTL horizontal coordinates are calculated as offsets from the specified reference line (along line and left / right offset). - Monitor Config - to review and configure the Monitor Options during the Monitor session.
- Display Coords - to display coordinates of the point (instead of HA, VA and SD) in the Normal View after measurement. Activated mode is marked with
. - Simulator - to enable or disable the control keys to change the simulated depth value. More... Activated feature is marked with
. (Available if the Simulation Mode box was checked in the Depth Finder dialog during survey configuration). - Use Depth - to receive data from the connected depth finder. Activated mode is marked with
. To display the current water depth, click on a customizable data field and select the Depth parameter in the Select Value to Display dialog. - Grid Lines - to set up a grid to be displayed on the Map for assistance while collecting points.
- Move instrument - to move the instrument to the next position during the Traverse survey and to change occupation point to the previous foresight point and the backsight point to the previous occupation point.
- Edit Points - to open the Points list to edit points.
- Inverse - to open the Two-Point Inverse calculation dialog.
- Robotic - click the item to expand the sub-menu:
- Remote Settings - to open the Search/Track Parameters dialog and set up how the robotic TS searches for and tracks a target (reflector).
- Config Link - to open the Remote Connection dialog and review or modify the connection settings of the RC device (for example RC4) with the IS Robot total station and the field controller.
- Search: - to select the search reflector mode (available for specific Robotic TS when Remote Control unit is used). Currently activated mode is marked with
: - Search: Nearest - to activate this mode and ignore the RC signal and search the reflector near the location TS is aiming to. (Useful when several reflectors are used and the RC is attached to one of them.)
- Search: Continuous Turning - to activate this mode and give the search reflector priority to the RC signal.
- Tilt - to open the Remote Control Tilt dialog displaying the virtual bubble level of the connected total station.
- Virtual Joystick - if this mode is enabled, clicking
opens the Remote Control (Virtual Joystick) dialog, containing virtual joystick for total station rotation. Activated mode is marked with
.
- Volume Report - to open the Surface Topo Volume Report dialog and display the current stockpile / pit volume report. (Available in the Surface survey).
- Raw Data - click the item to expand the sub-menu:
- Add Raw Note - to open the Add Raw Note dialog where you can enter any description during the survey if required.
- View Last Point - to open the Last Point Data dialog with the information about the last point.
- Edit - to open the Raw data dialog with raw data collected in the job.
- Quick Codes - click the item to expand the sub-menu:
- <Menu items with the names of quick codes groups> - to select the name of an existing quick codes group and display its code buttons on the map for quick measurement, adding assigned codes, and saving a point with one click. Currently used code group is marked with
. These items are visible in menu if quick codes groups are created. To create desired quick codes groups, select Edit Quick Codes. - Hide Quick Codes - to hide all quick code buttons on the map.
- Edit Quick Codes - to open the Quick Codes tab of the Code Options dialog and configure quick codes and create groups.
