Laser BS Measure
To set the reference direction for the horizontal angle readings in a laser rangefinder equipped with built-in compass.
This dialog opens automatically or by clicking the BS Setup button in the Laser Measure dialog, if TruPulse 360 model and TruPulse with Compass type is configured as an external laser in the Peripherals for the Rover Receiver dialog of the GNSS survey configuration.
- In the Occupation Point field, select the point for the laser rangefinder occupation. Enter a point name manually, or select from the map
or from the list
of job points. By default, the last saved GNSS point is suggested.
- Use the toggle button to set the reference direction either by point or by known direction:
- Set the toggle button to BS Point to perform laser measurement to a point and select the backsight point. Enter a point name manually, or select from the map
or from the list
of job points.
- Set the toggle button to BS Azimuth (or BS Bearing depending on direction settings in the Display dialog) to enter a known direction. Enter the direction value manually or click
to calculate the value of backsight direction from two job points or a segment of an existing linework in the Compute Azimuth / Bearing dialog.
- Place the laser rangefinder on the occupation point, aim to the backsight point or in the known backsight direction, and press the Fire button on the laser rangefinder. Measured values of Horizontal Angle (HA), Vertical Angle (VA) and Horizontal Distance (HD) are captured by MAGNET Field and displayed in the dialog.
- Click
to accept the backsight measurement data and open the Laser Measure dialog.
