Reference Plane (optional)
)
The application Reference Plane can be
trialed 15 times. Afterwards it is necessary to enter
the license code.
The Reference Plane application is used to measure
points relative to a reference plane. It can be used
for the following tasks:
•
Measuring a point to calculate and store the
perpendicular offset to the plane.
•
Calculating the perpendicular distance from the
intersection point to the local X- and Z-axis. The
intersection point is the footprint point of the
perpendicular vector from the measured point
through the defined plane.
•
Viewing, storing and staking out the coordinates
of the intersection point.
A reference plane is created by measuring three
points on a plane. These three points define a local
coordinate system:
•
The first point is the origin of a local coordinate
system.
•
The second point defines the direction of the
local Z-axis.
•
The third point defines the plane.
