Using the Pause/
Resume Function
While logging a line or polygon, you may want to pause data
logging because external events require that you do so or you
want to start the logging of a second feature (double logging
feature) (see Double Logging on page 32). Follow the
instructions below.
• Tap Menu>Pause to pause data logging.
• Later when you are ready to resume data logging, go back
to where you left the line or polygon, tap Menu>Resume to
continue the data logging as you walk along the feature.
Double Logging While logging a line or polygon, you may want to log another
feature found along the way, whether a point, a line or a
polygon. Follow the instructions below.
• Tap Menu>Pause to pause the data logging of the feature

• Tap Log, select the layer of the second feature, make the
necessary settings and log this feature as you would in the
usual case.
• Tap Menu>Stop when you are finished with the logging of
the second feature.
• Go back to where you left the first feature.
• Tap Menu>Resume to continue with the logging of the first
feature.
• Tap Menu>Stop when you are finished with the logging of

More about
Feature Logging
• The number of point features that can be logged in a
session is only limited by the memory capacity of the
storage medium used.
• Up to 10,000 points can be logged in a single line or
polygon.
• When logging a long line or polygon, MobileMapper Field
will automatically save the data to a temporary file every
10 minutes of data logging.
If a power failure occurs while logging a line or polygon,
the feature is automatically saved before the power
failure. Because line and area features are saved
automatically every 10 minutes of actual logging, if a
power failure occurs unexpectedly and you have been
logging a line or polygon feature for the last 15 minutes,
then most probably only the first 10 minutes of the feature
will be saved. If that happens, do the following:
