Fieldwork

53

Note: When creating a new job, it is important that the

Units for

Distances

field be set to the correct units. This allows you to

seamlessly switch between different units in mid-job.

Problems can arise if these units are inadvertently set to the incorrect
units prior to entering new data. For example, assume you created a
control file by hand-entering a list of coordinates in a new job where
the job was set to

Feet

and the coordinates were in

US Survey Feet

.

Now assume you created another new job and correctly set it to

US

Survey Feet

. If you then selected the previous job as a control file for

the new job, the display of all of the coordinates in the control file
would be converted from Feet to US Survey Feet.
