Job Settings Surveying.
The Surveying Settings card allows you to select various options that
affect how data collection is performed.
; Prompt for Description: When checked, a
prompt for a description will appear before any
new point is stored from only the routines
under the Survey
menu (Page R-117).
Note: Descriptions cannot exceed 16
characters.
; Prompt for Height of Rod: When checked,
a prompt for the rod height will appear before
any new point is stored.
; Prompt for Layer: When checked, a prompt to select a layer will
appear before any new point is stored from only the routines under
the Survey
menu (Page R-117).
; Prompt for Attributes: When checked, a prompt to select feature
information will appear before any new point is stored from only the
routines under the Survey
menu (Page R-117). This also requires that
a feature file be selected from the Files Settings
card, described
above.
; Detect Duplicate Shots: when checked, a prompt will appear
before attempting to store a second shot to the same location. This
helps to catch when robotic total stations have lost lock while
surveying. The distance tolerances set in the Repetition Settings
screen are used in determining when two shots are at the same
location.
; Adjust for Earth Curvature / Refraction: when checked, the
elevations for new points are adjusted to compensate for the
curvature of the earth and refraction.
