English term or phrase: side shot point

Hi all,

I have the definition which is

A reading or measurement from a survey station to locate a point that is off the traverse or that is not intended to be used as a base for the extension of the survey.

or

http://i45.tinypic.com/2nvb9zr.jpg

The sentence in my documentation is

The Angle setting affects commands where a direction is displayed or entered, such as Inverse, Traverse, Sideshot, and Input-Edit Centerline.

My attempt

Le paramètre Angle affecte les commandes pour lesquelles une direction est affichée ou entrée, comme Inverse, Traverse, Sideshot et Entrer-Éditer ligne d'axe.

Thanks for your help
