Setup Methods

Set orientation and Known backsight

The position coordinates of the setup point are required.
For Set orientation: The instrument is set up and oriented to either a known
or unknown target point, to which a true or assumed azimuth is set.
For Known backsight: The instrument is set up and oriented to a known back-
sight target.
For SmartStation, the position coordinates of the setup are unknown and are
determined with GS. The instrument is set and oriented to either a known or
unknown target point, to which a true or assumed azimuth is set.
A setup using the Set orientation method, is always automatically flagged
with an 'update later' attribute. If the backsight point is measured again, for
example from another setup, and found to have different coordinates, then a
message appears. You can then select whether to update the original setup or
not. The update uses the backsight point coordinates to recalculate the orien-
tation and updates all measured points connected to the setup.
For information on camera and images refer to "32 Camera & Imaging".
In Total Station Setup, select Setup method: Set orientation or Known
backsight. Press OK.
In Choose Setup Point, select a setup. Press OK.
