Predefined Points
To enter point names, codes and target parameters for foresight points prior to start Angle/Distance Sets - Dir/Rev measurements.
This dialog provides tools to populate the list of points that should be included into the Set Collection Angle/Distance Sets - Dir/Rev measurements.
Note: The backsight point or direction that is defined in the Set collection Setup dialog is already included and cannot be removed. Only the target type and height for the backsight can be changed.
The list of points displays the backsight and foresight point(s) that should be included into the sequence of Angle/Distance Sets - Dir/Rev measurements set.
- Point - the point name;
- Code - the point code;
- HR - the height of target;
- Target Type - the method of distance measurement with EDM (Prism, Sheet, Non-Prism or Long Non-Prism);
- PC - prism constant, the parameter of the prism characterizing the difference between the reflection plane and the center of the prism / target offset for non-prism target types;
Populate the list of predefined points with point names along with codes and target parameters:
- Click Add to add a predefined foresight point data to the list:
- In the Point field, enter a point name manually.
- Set a code and attribute information for the point:
- Select an existing Code from the drop-down list. You can manually type a code name. If there is no code with such name, the Code dialog will open when saving. There you can quickly create a new code with entered name.
- If the code type is Line or Area, the respective icon indicates that the point belongs to a line or area. Set a Code String and, if required, select an available Control Code (single or dual) from the drop-down list.
- Click the Code
button to access more code and attribute parameters in the Point Attributes dialog.
- Enter the height of the target. Type the value manually or click the button with current target icon to select one of the previously used values from the context menu. Select Edit from the context menu to open the Targets dialog to add or modify target configurations. Depending on the selected target type, the target icon has the view:
-
when a normal prism is selected, prism constant also displays below;
-
when a 360 prism is selected, prism constant also displays below;
-
when a sheet is selected, target offset also displays below;
-
when a non-prism is selected, target offset also displays below;
-
when a long non-prism is selected, target offset also displays below.
- Click Edit to modify the entered predefined point data that is highlighted in the list.
- Click Remove to remove the predefined point data that is highlighted in the list.
Click Next to start the Angle/Distance Sets - Dir/Rev measurements set, after the list of predefined points is populated with desired data.
