This is one of the reasons that for legs like that (where the Disto will be parallel to a wall not perpendicular to it during the next shot), we aim the laser not for the station itself, but for the middle of a small block that is a similar size to the Disto, held on the station. The easiest

An error of 3 degrees in clino does indicate a device out of calibration. I would expect it to be within 0.5 degrees for a well calibrated device, and would not tolerate more than 1 degree. In my experience poor calibration is usually down to either just inaccurate calibration shots, or local

Thanks for all the suggestions. Especial the „Aven colored by error“ is a superb starting point. We do not always practice paperless caving but Disto X1/X2 devices are used for everything. So we get a SD from Calibrating - although to my understanding this value is something different then

To expand a little in this, you could also use the standard „grade“ to tell theriob which centerline data has which quality. We use this to mark the centerlines we have surveyed with distox and traditional way and therion uses this to put more of the errors towards the more bad survey. See
