21.MISSING LINE MEASUREMENT

Missing line measurement is used to measure the slope distance, horizontal distance, and horizontal angle to 
a target from the target which is the reference (starting point) without moving the instrument.

• It is possible to change the last measured point to the next starting position.
• Measurement result can be displayed as the gradient between two points.

The distance between two or more points can either be measured by observing the targets in question or 
calculating from input coordinates. A combination of these two methods (e.g. observing the 1st target and 
inputting 2nd target coordinates) is also possible.

PROCEDURE Measuring using observation

1. In the third page of OBS mode screen, press 

[MLM]

, then 

select "MLM".

2. Sight the 1st target and press 

[MEAS]

.

• If the distance measurement data remains, the last 

measured distance data is set as the starting point, and the 
screen in step 3 is displayed.

• The tilt screen is displayed if the instrument is out of level.

Level the instrument.

"7.2 Levelling"

3. Sight the second target and press 

[MLM]

 to begin 

observation.

•

[REC]

: records 1st target measurement results.
