Allows points to be set out over a line defined by two known points. Also, in line mode, it allows to analyse the points over that line, in the same way as the following command does.

 

 

The points are calculated by indicating a Distance to origin and an Interval. The line’s initial point is considered as distance 0.0. Negative stations may be set out.

 

In order to set out points over parallel lines, a value above 0.0 must be indicated in the Side Offset box. The line one wishes can be indicated in the setting out screen.

 

The values in the Direction drop-down menu, One Way or Two Way, allow one to indicate if one wishes to commence at the initial station (One Way) or at the current station (Two Way).

 

The points can be calculated by Parallels or Staggered formation by indicating it in the Points between Lines drop-down menu.

 

 

 The setting out information displayed is as follows:

 

Name of the numerical information mode in brackets. (North)

 

Current line number. L 0. The lines on the right are indicated with positive numbers and those on the left with negative numbers.

 

Distance to the origin of the current line. DO 3.00. The points prior to the origin are indicated in the direction of travel of the line are indicated with negative numbers.

 

Existing distance between the current position and the point to be set out. D 3.00

 

Measured height. MH 561.80

 

Distance to be moved to the right or left. Rgt 2.24 . Done is indicated when this distance is less than the transversal tolerance indicated in the configuration.

 

Distance to be moved forwards or backwards. Fwd 2.00. Done is indicated when this distance is less than the longitudinal tolerance indicated in the configuration.

 

Distance to rise (R) or fall (L) to achieve the theoretical elevation. L 0.08.  H OK is indicated when the elevation difference is less than the vertical tolerance indicated in the configuration.

 

In line mode, the following information is displayed:

 

 

 

Current line number. L 0. The lines on the right are indicated with positive numbers and those on the left with negative numbers.

 

Name of the numerical information mode in brackets. (Line).

 

Distance to the origin of the current line. DO 5.74. The points prior to the origin are indicated in the direction of travel of the line are indicated with negative numbers.

 

Displacement perpendicular to the line. Dpl -5.31. A positive value indicates that the point measured is situated on the right of the line and negative, on the left.

 

Measured height. MH 561.83

 

Distance to rise (R) or fall (L) to achieve the theoretical elevation. L 0.23.  H OK is indicated when the elevation difference is less than the vertical tolerance indicated in the configuration.
