The Leica instrument settings are totally defined by the user. There are numerous settings that can be created on the Leica instrument or field book. Topocad has the same settings and values that can be set as follows:

Code functions:

Point code

Transfer code

Start of line

End of line

End and start of line

Point

Backsight

Check point

The different code blocks can either be controlled directly or connected to info blocks. In Topocad it is possible to input four info blocks for every code block.

With the default settings code block -1 indicates the start of a line, -2 indicates the end of a line and -3 indicates a point. In the survey, using code block 1 automatically indicates that it is the start of a line.

With the default settings, code block 4 is used for the station. In this case the code block has no function but the info block 1 is used for the point ID of the station and info block 2 is used for the station height. A unit is also specified for the station height. All units in Leica are in mm.

The values used in info blocks are:

Station

Instrument height

Prism height

Horizontal length

Vertical length
