Stake additional points

This stakeout method can be used when staking from a road design file. It does not apply when staking Strings and surfaces.

In the stakeout selection screen, 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.
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.
Tap Start.

The Road navigation screen appears. Tap Options to configure preferences for the navigation display, grade, as-staked point details, or to view stakeout deltas relative to a digital terrain model (DTM).
Use the information in the Road navigation screen to see your position relative to the road and navigate to the point to stake it out.
To edit the Design elevation, press the Space key or tap next to the Design elevation delta and enter the new value. To restore the original elevation after editing, press the Space key or tap and then tap next to the Design elevation field and select Reload original elevation.
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.
Tap Store.

The software returns to the navigation screen.

Next steps

To continue measuring points along the road, tap the Sta+ or Sta‑ softkey to select the next or previous station.

If you have enabled the Auto increment field in the Select station screen then the next or previous station is automatically selected. See Stations available for stakeout.

- To a string, tap the string in the map.
- A Station on a string, tap the station on a string in the map.
To exit this stakeout method, tap Esc.
