9.4 Column Offset Measurement
Sometimes we wish to obtain the coordinate of column center where we cannot
find. Fortunately, we can measure the distances of another points on the column,
in this time the plane offset measurement can be used. the figure is shown as
follow:

1.Press F1:【Meas】to start EDM then you can
obtain the data of a point on the column which is

2.Aim at the left edge of the column, get its
4.836
azimuth.
