Enter saves the measurement immediately. If you do a Read, you can review the data within the Text view. If you
re-enter the rod height, it re-calculates the Z elevation of the measured point. As you enter the description, a pulldown
appears of your Feature Code List or previously entered descriptions. As each letter is entered, such as "e" for edge of
pavement, every description beginning with "e" or "E" appears, enabling quick selections. Some users prefer the text
screen to take readings because of the larger buttons and text size. The program remains in the Text mode until Graphic
mode is chosen again.
Unless the rod hgt/description prompt is enabled, the Store Points screen is designed to “quick-store” points, where
the user is expected to enter, ahead of time, the correct description and rod heights in the edit boxes shown at the bottom
of the dialog.
