where a ditch meets an area requiring a fill, which would otherwise
result in an area with two similar or identical negative slopes.

Slope Staking – Screen Four
The fourth screen is used to perform the actual slope staking shots.
Height of Rod: is the rod height.
EDM: This button can be toggled to shoot in
various EDM modes. The options available
depend on the total station being used.
Consult the total station’s documentation for
more information on the EDM modes that it
supports.
The first button selects the type of slope that
will be used between the catch point and hinge
point from the following options:
• Automatic Slope : selects the slope based on the current rod
position. If the rod is above the hinge point, a cut slope is
computed. If the rod is below the hinge point, a fill slope is
computed.
• Force CUT Slope : forces all computations to be based on a
cut slope.
• Force FILL Slope : forces all computations to be based on a
fill slope.
The second button selects which information is displayed in the lower
corner of the screen from the following options:
• Vertical Map : displays a cross-sectional view at the current
station.
Note: When you tap a map view, an expanded view of the same map
will fill the screen.
