Creating or Selecting

a Level Loop

• From the main menu, tap

Survey > Select/Create Loop.

NOTE: Survey Pro will list all the level loops that haven’t been closed yet. You may

select one of them and tap

Activate Selected Loop to choose to work in this level loop.

• To create a new level loop, tap on the

New Loop button. This opens the New

Level Loop screen.

• Enter a name for the new level loop (e.g. MyLoop).

• Tap on

to define the opening CBM. The point may be selected from

either the map or the list of points. You may also create the opening CBM
at this stage.

NOTE: The opening CBM must be a point in the job with a user-entered, keyed-in
elevation. You cannot select points derived from measurements for your opening
CBM.

• Tap

Next.

• Use the

Desc field to enter a description for the level loop (e.g.

“Boundaries”). Below this field, the current definition of the level loop you
want to create is displayed. You may tap

Back if you wish to modify this

definition.

• When the definition of the level loop is complete, tap the

Create Loop

button. A message is then displayed prompting you to proceed with level
measurements in the loop.

• Tap

OK to close the message. This automatically opens the screen from

which you can start collecting elevations in the level loop. (This screen can

also be accessed from the main menu by tapping

Survey then Level.)
