DAY 1

DRAWING SETUPS

UNITS

Before starting a project, make sure the units are set in according to the unit used in your

country as shown in Figure 1. This can be done in the Drawing Setup (Project Drawing

Setup).

Set the Linear Units to Meters.

ForAngle Display Type, use North Azimuths

o North AzimuthsNorth is 0oor 360o

o South AzimuthsSouth is 0oor 360o

Display Precision

o Linear 3

o Elevation 3

o Coordinate 4

o Angular 5

Figure 1. Units Setup

SCALESet the horizontal scale to 1:1000 and the vertical scale to 1:100 as shown in Figure 2. If the

drawing contains many rolling/steep terrain, then set the vertical scale to 1:200 to reduce the

exaggeration of the steepness.

If the zone of the drawing is unknown, leave the Categories as Lat Longs and change the

Available Coordinate Systems to Indonesian Datum 1974, Latitude-Longitude; Degrees as

shown in Figure 3.

To change the origin coordinate of the UCS icon to other coordinate than at (0,0), type UCSandthen you can specify where you want the UCS icon to be located.

In 2D, the W means that it is UCS 2D World where the origin coordinate is at (0,0).Therefore, when starting a project, make sure that the UCS Icon has a W.

Adding Points in to Database

In the Modify Project Database Points from Drawing window, check the Addunregistered points to project database.

Make sure that the Delete Points from Project Database is set at Off.o Off: Not deleting anythingo Points erased by AUTOCAD ERASE command: The points will only be erased

from the current view screen but are still stored in the database.o All points not in the current drawing: When inserting new sets of points into the

database, the old sets of points will be deleted. For this reason, always makesure that new sets of data have its own layer.

Check the Echo status to screen.
