# To stake out additional points

1. Tap the additional point in the map, or select Additional points in the Stake field and then tap Select to select the additional point from the list.

2. If required, add the following features:
   - To stake points offset from the road, leaving the roadway clear for construction, define a construction offset.
   - To confirm the construction of the road surface, define a cross slope.
3. Tap Start.
4. Use the plan or cross section view to navigate to the point. See Stakeout navigation.
5. To edit the elevation, press the Space key or tap and enter the new elevation value. To restore the original elevation after editing, press the Space key or tap and then tap and select Reload original elevation.

6. When the point is within tolerance, tap Measure to measure the point.

   When using a Trimble SX12 scanning total station in TRK mode with the laser pointer enabled, the Stakeout screen shows the Mark point softkey instead of the Measure softkey. Tap Mark point to put the instrument into STD mode. The laser pointer stops flashing and moves to position itself at the EDM location. When you tap Accept to store the point, the instrument automatically returns to TRK mode and the laser pointer resumes flashing. To remeasure and update the stakeout deltas, tap Measure after you tap Mark point and before you tap Accept. For more information, see EDM settings.

7. Tap Store.

   The software returns to the navigation screen.

   You can then:

   - Continue measuring points along the road.
   - Tap Esc to exit this stakeout method.
   - Change stakeout methods. To stake:
     - To the road, double-tap an empty part of the map.
     - To a string, tap the string in the map.
     - A Station on a string, tap the station on a string in the map.
