Leica 1000Z01 user manual 195

Also:

•The header is always at the beginning of the file.

•The Hz-alignment file must always contain at least two elements.

•The units and decimal places used in the WIs 11 and 72 are in accordance with the definitions in WIs 81 and 82.

•The chainage is produced from the sum of the element lengths.

•A cross-sectional profile may be assigned more than once.

•Geometrical elements can be combined freely, for example as:

-Transition curve (straight - spiral - arc)

-Vertex spiral ( straight - spiral into curve

-spiral out of curve - straight)

Unusual applications are also possible:

-Breakpoint (straight - straight)

-Right-angle (straight - straight, or straight - 90° arc - straight)

•There is no limitation on the size of the Hz-alignment file. As a result, as many data blocks as required can be entered if a file is created on the PC using the DOS program "ROADDATA.EXE". If a file is created/edited using the program "FILE EDITOR" on the TPS1000 there is a limitation of 200 data blocks.

Check your data for errors (typing errors, signs etc.) RO before you load it into the memory card.

The program supports the user during the setting-out by controlling the length of curves. It compares the length of the element from the chainage (WI 11) with the calculated main-point values, thus enabling input errors in the chainage or in the coordinates to be detected. However, the signs of arcs and of spirals are not checked (see example below).
