[Therion] How to "equate" between two caves

Hello everyone -
I have been working on a multi-cave project for a while. Each cave exists as
its own separate set of files. A few months ago - with help from this group -
I figured out how to get a single output file that contains all four cave
maps.
The combined map is generated from a single thconfig file that uses "source"
commands to bring in the .th files from each of the member caves.
Now we have surveyed a link between two of the four caves. I need to set up
an "equate" command so that the two caves actually link up. According to
Aven, the gap is about 30 feet. Some of that, I am sure, is due to rounding
errors in the GPS locates for the two caves.
Based on a message from Martin, I added a .th file which contains a "survey"
command. However, that is generating an error from Therion:

===============
The thconfig and .th files I used are embedded below as text.
Where should I put the "equate" command that will link the two caves?
Thanks!
