To measure continuous topo points

Use the Continuous topo measurement method to measure points continuously, for example a line of points at a fixed interval.

You can also use the Continuous topo measurement method to store depths measured using an echo sounder. For more information, see Echo sounders.

To start Continuous topo measurements:

  1. Tap and select Measure / Continuous topo.
  2. Enter the Start point name. The point name increments automatically.

  3. If required, enter a value in the Target height field.
  4. Select the method using the steps below.

If you are using a Trimble total station continuous topo uses only synchronous angles and distances. If the instrument:

  • Has a tracklight that has been enabled, the tracklight is disabled for 2 seconds when the measured point has been stored.
  • Is a FOCUS 30/35 instrument with laser blinking enabled, laser blinking is temporarily disabled when using Continuous topo.

If you are using a FOCUS 30/35 instrument with laser blinking enabled, laser blinking is temporarily disabled when using Continuous topo.
