Monitoring
Monitoring is a module integrated within the Sets of Angles app.
Monitoring uses a timer to enable repeated and automated angle and distan-
ces measurements to pre-defined target points at defined intervals. The ability
to configure the handling of message panels during measurement sets is also
enabled.
For monitoring, instruments must be motorised.
This step-by-step description is an example on preparing a set for monitoring.
