d. The new point is computed and stored
and the Traverse Now or Later prompt
will open, shown here, asking if you
want to advance to the new point now
or later. For this example, tap the
. Traverse Now . button. The New
Occupy Point dialog box will open,
shown here, which displays details of
the new setup. You can see that the
previous foresight point is now the
current occupy point and the previous
occupy point is now the current
backsight point.
e. Since we are running in manual mode
and cannot send data to an instrument,
tap (close). You will notice at the top
of the Traverse Sideshot screen that the
occupy point has been updated to 4, the
backsight is updated to 1, and the
foresight is updated to 5, which is the
next available point name.
Note: If you select to traverse later, the traverse point is still stored,
but you will then have the opportunity to shoot additional side shots
before you advance to the next point. This is useful when you want to
shoot the traverse shot first, before any settling occurs to the tripod.
In that situation, when you are ready to advance, you would tap
Traverse again where you would then answer to a prompt that asks if
you are ready to advance or re-shoot the traverse point. (If you select
to re-shoot the traverse point, the previous traverse point is stored as
a side shot.)
