Backward Bearing & Distance,
height included
If the height computation for a
hidden point has been enabled
within the configuration, the
following options apply in addition to
those on the previous page.
Delta Hgt - Height difference
between the center of the external
device and the aimed point.
Devices with inclinometer like the
Laser Locator will transfer the
measured height difference
automatically into this field as long
as Include Hgt in the panel
CONFIGURE\ Hidden Point is set
to YES.
When working with devices without
inclinometer the height difference can
be estimated and typed in manuallly.
Use the I/T H (F4) key to check or
enter the instrument height at the
standpoint and target height.
The default values as defined in the
configuration are displayed but can
be edited. Use the DEFLT (F5) key to

accordingly in the configuration.
Otherwise, only the instrument height
will be taken into account.
CONT (F1) to return to the previous
panel.
When Distance is highlighted, use
SLOPE (F5) to enter a slope distance
and either an elevation angle or a
grade in %. External devices work
here as well.
CONT (F1) returns to the previous
panel and displays the calculated
horizontal distance and height
difference.
For further information on the Hidden
Point application and configuration
refer to Appendix H as well as
chapter 5.4.1.
