16. SETTING-OUT LINE
Setting-out line is used for setting out a required point at a designated distance
from the baseline and for finding the distance from the baseline to a measured
point.
To perform setting-out line measurement, first, define the baseline. The baseline
can be defined by inputting the coordinates of, or by observing the two points. The
scale factor value is the difference between the input coordinates and the
observed coordinates.
• When not observing first or second points, scale factor is set to “1”.
• Defined baseline can be used in both setting-out line measurement and point
projection.
PROCEDURE Defining by inputting coordinates
1. In the second page of OBS mode
screen, press
[MENU]
, then select
