•
Station Format — global setting of visual rep-
resentation of station values. Does not influence
any calculations and affects display only. Available
options:
o
“
1000
” — display station as general
floating point value, e.g. “4200.0”
o
“ 10+00 ” — display station as floating
point value with last two digits to the
left of decimal point separated by a plus,
e.g. “42+00.0”
o
“
1+000
” — display station as floating
point value with last three digits to the
left of decimal point separated by a plus,
e.g. “4+200.0”
• Max. No. of Stakes — accidental input of too
long section or too small stake interval may lead
to generation of so large number of design points
that the system starts responding slow, or to flood-
ing the map with large quantity of false points.
On the other hand, hard limit on the number of
stakes may be undesirable in some situations. So,
this setting defines the maximum number of gen-
erated design points which may exist at a time for
active alignment. Note that this parameter does
not limit the total number of objects on a map.
• Min. Stakes Distance
— more or less complex
alignment configuration may lead to generation
of stakes very close to each other (for example,
stake point at section joint at 0+99.7 and design
points produced by interval staking at 1+00.0).
There is little or no sense in leaving such stakes as
separate points, so out of stakes which are closer
to each other than this threshold, only one is left
(section joint has precedence over interval stake).
• Reset to Defaults
— this button resets settings
for current alignment to factory defaults.
Stake Modes
There are three general stake-out modes, which are
switched by the “ Mode ” button in the Stake-Out/Pre-
pare screen:
