4.3.1.3. Arcs
 
With the function Calculate > Intersections > Arcs the intersection points of two arcs can be calculated and stored as plane coordinates.
 
Enter the center point number and the radius of each circle. Alter­natively, click on the points in the graphic screen of GART-2000® CE. The circles are displayed in the graphic screen.
 
For the circles an input in the Distance field results in a shift of the intersection points on the arc. A positive distance shifts the intersections outwards, a negative sign results in a shift inwards.
 
With the <Option> button other definitions for the circles are possible.
 
By pressing the <OK> button the calculation of the arc section is started.
 
The result of the calculation shows the plane coordinates of both arc section points.
 
To store the coordinates of the arc section point 1 click the <S1> button; to store the coordinates of the arc section point 2 click <S2>. Alternatively, press <Mean> to store the averaged coordinates of both arc section points. The coordinate input dialog is opened automatically.
