To Create a New Point by Station, Offset, and Rod Height

You can create a point by specifying a station, offset, and rod height from the current centerline. The elevation is computed by algebraically adding the rod reading to the current value set with the Set Height of Instrument command.

Note: For parameter descriptions, see the Quick Reference tab.
