Z-Max.Net receiver module.
4. Carefully place the Z-Max.Net assembly into the tribrach
mounted on the tripod over the point.
5. Use the tape to measure from the reference point on the
ground to the measurement point of the Z-Max.Net (see
Hb opposite). Later on, you will have to enter the value
read on the tape (see point
