Step 5: Logging raw data
As soon as you are tracking a
minimum of 4 satellites, the position
icon is visible and the antenna is
placed correctly above the survey
marker, you should press F1 OCUPY.
This activates logging of raw data
and the screen changes accordingly:
The position mode icon has changed
to static, indicated by a symbol of a
tripod.
Pressing F1 CONT finishes this
startup sequence.
It is time to check again the icons on
the top of the display: The position
icon should be available, the position
mode icon still indicates "moving" ,
the "number of satellites visible" icon
should display a number greater or at
least 4, and the number of used
satellites should be identical to the
number of visible satellites.
This selection is made in the usual
way: first use the cursor down key to
get this input field highlighted. Then
use the cursor left key to toggle
among the several options until the
right one appears. Alternatively you
can press the ENTER key to get a
listbox from which the choice can be
made.
