AUX: Auxiliary Parameters
This record declares (creates the existence of) an auxiliary parameter group. Each group of auxiliary parameters can contain from 1 to 7 parameters of the following types:
Only specific parameter types may be assigned to each observation type as follows (parameter types not shown for a measurement type are not used by that measurement type):
Note that the first blank parameter type field ends the list of parameter types for the group.
This record has two possible formats, a long parameter name format, and a short parameter name format. If column 10 contains an asterisk (*) the long name format is expected, otherwise the short name format is expected.
The short parameter name format of this record is as follows (from column - to column: description):
The long parameter name format of this record is as follows (from column - to column: description):
- CONS: Additive constant for distance
- SCAL: Scale change (3D)
- SCA2: Scale change in the horizontal plane (2D)
- ORAZ: Rotation around the local vertical (azimuth rotation)
- ROTX: Rotation around the CT X-axis
- ROTY: Rotation around the CT Y-axis
- ROTZ: Rotation around the CT Z-axis
- TRAX: Translation along the CT X-axis
- TRAY: Translation along the CT Y-axis
- TRAZ: Translation along the CT Z-axis
- TRAE: Translation in the east/west direction
- TRAN: Translation in the north/south direction
Only specific parameter types may be assigned to each observation type as follows (parameter types not shown for a measurement type are not used by that measurement type):
- AZIM: ORAZ, ROTX, ROTY, ROTZ

- 3DC: CONS, SCAL, SCA2, ORAZ, ROTX, ROTY, ROTZ, TRAX, TRAY, TRAZ, TRAE, TRAN
- 3DD: CONS, SCAL, SCA2, ORAZ, ROTX, ROTY, ROTZ, TRAX, TRAY, TRAZ, TRAE, TRAN
Note that the first blank parameter type field ends the list of parameter types for the group.
This record has two possible formats, a long parameter name format, and a short parameter name format. If column 10 contains an asterisk (*) the long name format is expected, otherwise the short name format is expected.
The short parameter name format of this record is as follows (from column - to column: description):
- 002-005: AUX
- 007-009: Observation type (AZI, GAZ, DIS, EDI, 3DC, 3DD, 2DC, or 2DD)
- 010: (blank)
- 011-022: Unique name of the auxiliary parameter group
- 024-027: Type for 1st auxiliary parameter in group
- 029-032: Type for 2nd auxiliary parameter in group (if any)
- 034-037: Type for 3rd auxiliary parameter in group (if any)
- 039-042: Type for 4th auxiliary parameter in group (if any)
- 044-047: Type for 5th auxiliary parameter in group (if any)
- 049-052: Type for 6th auxiliary parameter in group (if any)
- 054-057: Type for 7th auxiliary parameter in group (if any)
The long parameter name format of this record is as follows (from column - to column: description):
- 002-005: AUX
- 007-009: Observation type (AZI, GAZ, DIS, EDI, 3DC, 3DD, 2DC, or 2DD)
