Sideshot (Auto Store)

Main Menu or Instrument Toolbar | Measure Modes | Sideshot (Auto Store)

Use this when you have production in mind and you don't need to review your shots before they're recorded in the database and raw file. The Measure Mode allows you to press the measure button and it will store the point in the database and plot it in the drawing without asking you for any further information.

When in this mode you will see the words Sideshot (Auto) on the Measure Mode button.

It will use the following settings from the main interface when storing the point:

Next Point Number ID

The current point ID on the topo toolbar will be assigned to the point.

Description

The current description on the topo toolbar will be assigned to the point.

Height of Target

The current HT on the instrument toolbar will be used to compute the elevation of the point.

Note:

When measuring in the Auto Store mode, a SS record will be recorded in the raw file.
