How To Set Your A-B Line
After you define the shape of your pool cover or pool dome, place your A and B reference points exactly 20 feet apart and about 3 feet away from the long side of the shape you are measuring.
For most layouts, the easiest setup is to keep the A-B line parallel to the long axis of the pool. That gives you cleaner point measurements and makes the plotted shape easier to verify on the chart.
If you are unsure where the line should go, review the measuring directions before continuing.
