course, would require a prism to be setup over the backsight
point.
5. The Do Not Shoot Reverse Distances checkbox is available for
people that use total stations that cannot measure distances
when in the inverted, face two, position. Check this if you use
this type of total station.
6. The Enable Automatic Repetition checkbox is for users with
motorized total stations. When this is checked, the first shot to
the backsight and foresight is performed normally, but when
those shots are complete the total station will perform all the
remaining shots for each set automatically unless the user
interrupts the sequence.
7. The Shooting Sequence defines the order that the forward and
reverse shots are performed for each set. The notation used
should be read where the > symbol indicates to aim the telescope
to the next point and the ^ symbol indicates that the total station
should be flopped from face one to face two or vice versa. Each
option is explained below.
