A maximum of ten target points can be measured and used for the calculation.
When the maximum number of points is exceeded, a message will appear. The
user can remove previous points or finish the setup. Points can be removed
from the Setup Results, Targets page.

Transfer height

This method is used to compute a setup height to apply to the selected setup.
Only the height is updated, the orientation is not updated.
The position coordinates of the setup point are required.
In Total Station Setup, select Setup method: Transfer height. Press OK.
In Choose Setup Point, select a setup. Press OK.
For a description of the Measure Target panel, refer to "50.6.2 Multiple back-
sights".

Resection

The coordinates of the setup point are unknown. The coordinates and orienta-
tion are determined by sighting to at least two or more known target points.
Ten target points is the maximum. Only angles or both angles and distances
can be measured. For a resection, least squares or robust calculations are used.
The resection calculations can be done using the Helmert method, robust
method or least squares method, after three measurements to known back-
sights have been completed.
In Total Station Setup, select Setup method: Resection. Press OK.
In Setup Details, type in the required information. Press OK.
For a description of the Measure Target panel, refer to "50.6.2 Multiple back-
sights".
