Eccentric measurement
If points cannot be measured directly, the eccentric measurement option can provide
the solution. This may also be called "taped offset measurement". You can select the
direction you are going to input the offset value.
Spatial eccentric target measurements are very helpful, especially for indoor surveys.
To enter offset distance values before you record the
point, in the
Topo observation screen, press [F1] ECC.
1. In the
ECC measurement screen, do one of
the following:
– To move the cursor to a different field, press
[v] or [^].
– To change the setting in the
Prism field,
press
[<] or [>].
– To change the setting in the
Ofs. field, use
the keypad.
– To change the setting in the
Mode field,
press
[<] or [>].
Note – If the mode is set to Once, the offset value will be
applied for only one measurement after the ECC setting. If
mode is set to Perm the offset will be applied until you
change the setting to OFF.
