‘Slant Height’ to ‘Vertical
Height’
The iGx Download tool automatically
converts from
‘
feet to meters
’ and
from
‘
slant to vertical
’ using the currently
selected receiver model.
If you have a vertical measurement in
feet you can enter an
‘F’ after the
measured vertical height. For the iG5:
“
4.512 F
”
becomes
“
1.375,3
”
meters vertical
If you have a slant height in feet you can
enter a ‘FS’ (or ‘SF’) after the
measured
slant height:
“
4.512 FS
”
becomes
“
1.320,6
”
meters vertical
If you have a slant height in meters, enter
an
‘S’ after the measured slant height:
“1.523 S”
becomes
“
1.468,4
”
meters vertical
