We have now used 3 different 'Total stations' all by different manufacturers
All seem to give a choice between 270 as down 0 as level and 90 as up or 0 as down 90 as level and 180 as up None of them have given the choice for negative clino (all the machines we have use are old, but digital. So it does seem normal for theodolites! With hindsight I should have chosen the latter,then I could have just calibrated with a calibrate clino 90 But it was difficult to get your head round, plus I was using pockettopo (and sexytopo) to draw the survey in the cave, so it was easier to use the 270 as down version It would be really useful to be able in a centreline-endcentreline nest to be able to suppress the out of range error and use the 270 to 360 readings, but still have the error/warning for the more normal surveys thanks Andrew On 14/12/2020 08:24, Martin Sluka via Therion wrote: > Are you sure those data are “normal”? > > Martin > > Odesláno z iPhonu > > 14. 12. 2020 v 1:10, alastair gott <[email protected]>: > >> Hi Andrew, if you can get deg,mins,secs to work in survex then you can use >> the .3d file with the surveys use command.
