5. Access the Survey , Traverse / Sideshot screen and fill in the
appropriate fields. The backsight

aiming toward the backsight.
a. In the Traverse / Sideshot screen, enter
the following data if not already
entered:
Foresight
: 3

height for the next point that is stored.
b. Assuming that the total station is aiming toward the prism,
which is located over the foresight, tap Side Shot . This would
trigger the total station to take a shot, compute coordinates
for the new point and store it. Since we are running in
manual mode, we will enter the shot data from the keypad.
c. Enter the following data:
Angle
Right: 70
Zenith
: 90
Slope
Dist: 100
and then tap . The new point is
