If you are using a fixed-height pole, just enter this height.
if you are using a height-adjustable pole or bipod, read the
graduation on this device, and then enter the read value
in the
Antenna Height field.
• Select the antenna type used.
• On the Recording tab, make sure the Record raw data for
post-processing function is enabled, check that the storage
medium used to store the collected data is the one you
really want to use (it is a good practice to use a Storage
Card) and choose the recording interval (default: 1
second). To change the storage medium, see also
Changing the Storage Medium for Raw Data Collection on
page 47.
• Tap OK to complete the rover configuration step. Tap OK
again to return to the map screen.
• Select Menu>Initialize and choose your initialization
method:
– If you select “From Bar”, ProMark Field asks you to
name the initialization point (the point will be saved to
the job) and possibly correct the antenna height on the
bar. Then tap
OK. Keep the rover antenna on the bar
until the initialization time is up (60 seconds; see
progress bar on the screen), then carefully move this
antenna to the top of the pole or bipod, taking care not
to mask it.
– If you select “From Known Point” (you are supposed to
stand on that point), choose that point from the list of
points stored in the job and stay there until the
initialization time is up (5 sec; see progress bar on the
screen).
• Taking care to keep the pole upright and the antenna
unmasked, go to the first point you want to survey.
• Tap Log. In the Site ID field, type the name of that point.
If you use a purely numerical value for this field, then
ProMark Field will automatically increment the Site ID
name after each site occupation. Optionally, add a
description in the field underneath. This may be one of
the feature codes you defined earlier.
• On the Antenna tab, you may also check the antenna
height and type entered previously and make last-minute
changes.
• On the Settings tab, preset the time required on each point
during which you should stay static (default: 5 seconds).
• Offset tab: See Point Offset on page 50.
