Which checkbox, in the measure rounds options, tells the instrument to measure without surveyor input?

Automating measurements during rounds relies on instructing the instrument to perform readings without prompting from you. The checkbox Auto-measure Passive Targets is the one that fits this, because Passive Targets are meant to be read without surveyor input. When this option is enabled, the instrument automatically captures measurements of those targets at the configured intervals, allowing unattended rounds. The other options focus on detection or on initiating measurements in ways that may still require operator prompts or aren’t limited to passive targets, so they don’t guarantee unattended measurement.
