station is aligned, a shot is taken by tapping the Take Shot button.
If the Remote Shot screen was accessed by performing a side shot,
you will return to the Remote Shot screen after the shot is completed.
If the Remote Shot screen was accessed by performing a traverse
shot, you will return to the Traverse / Sideshot screen after the shot
is completed.
Stake Out in Remote Mode
Performing stake out in remote mode is different from running in a
non-remote mode because the feedback is continuous and provided in
the rod’s point of view instead of the total station’s.
Stakeout data is presented in the Remote Staking screen. All of the
information is displayed as if the rod person were facing the total
station. The graphic portion of the screen will change depending on
how close the rod is to the stake point.
When the prism is located more than 10 feet, or 3 meters from the
stake point, the first screen shown below is displayed. In this
situation, the prism is shown at the center of the screen and an arrow
indicates the necessary direction of travel, as you face the total
station.
Once the prism moves to within 10 feet of the stake point, the second
screen is displayed. The stake point is now at the center of the screen
and the current prism location is displayed away from the center.
Dark green “lights” are also displayed around the screen to indicate
you are near the stake point.
When the prism is within 3 feet, or 0.3
meters of the stake point, the “lights”
change to light green and locating the stake
point is simply a matter of moving the
round prism icon directly over the square
stake point icon.
When you are satisfied with the location of
the prism, tap the Done button. This will
open the Stake Point screen (see Page 68)
where the stake point can be stored.
