Data Description
| Sub-Command | -9E9 | Saves the last bearing used in the 1 command and uses that bearing to compute additional points on the same line. Computes a point for each distance following the sub-command.
A negative distance rotates the bearing 180°. The -9E9 sub-command and the 9E9 sub-command may be used together without ending the original sub-command. Each one supersedes the other. The distances entered following the sub-command produce points on a line or points at 90° to one another, as the sub-command directs. The last bearing is directed toward the last point set. Note: The 7E7 and 8E8 sub-commands may be used in conjunction with this sub-command. |
| Distance | 40 | Length of the line from the known point to the point being computed by the 1 command. The retained bearing is directed toward the last point set.
If a negative number is entered following the -9E9 sub-command, the point is set in the opposite direction and the bearing is rotated accordingly. |
| {[Distance] .. } | 20.2 | Repeating feature of this sub-command within the 1 command. Numbers separated by commas or spaces following the command are read as distances until the end sub-command 0 or ES is encountered. |
| End
Sub-Command | 0 | End of sub-command is a 0 (zero) or ES. |
