a point on an arc defined by three
points and based on the arc distance.
Enter the three points on the arc or
press NEWOC (F5) to measure new
points. Enter the Arc Distance starting
from the first point.
Press COMP (F1) to start the
computation.
Easting, Northing and Height of the
new point on the arc are displayed.
Enter a Point Id, change the Height if
neccessary and press STORE (F1)
will bring you back to the COGO\
Arcs menu.
Alternatively press STAKE (F5) to
switch to the stakeout screen and use
the coordinates directly for stakeout.
Input:
P1 - First point on arc (E, N, h)
P2 - Second point on arc (E, N, h)
P3 - Third point on arc (E, N, h)
b - Distance on Arc
Output:
P - New point on arc (E, N, h)
