Yes, by Acquiring Coordinates you moved the Survey Point.  I don't understand what you mean by you "modified the family to get the 'UTM coordinates'".  Can you elaborate?

Okay, so it doesn't say meters, but it is meters.  

 

Something you ought to be aware of: Revit has a 10 mile maximum radius distance limit.  Read list AKN article:
