Level Loop Procedure
The procedure for leveling with Survey Pro is nearly identical no
matter which method you are using. The main difference for each
method is the type of information that is entered with each shot
taken.
The steps that follow explain the procedure for taking all four various
types of shots: Turning points, side shots, stakeout, and benchmarks.
The various prompts for data entry while collecting in Manual Mode
are also covered for each leveling method.
For the examples below, it is assumed you have already activated
Leveling Mode and have configured your instrument and level
settings. You should also already have a point stored in the current
job with an accurate elevation to use as your starting benchmark.
Creating a New Loop
1. From the Main Menu, select Leveling
> Select/Create Loop . This will open
the Select/Create Loop screen.
You can select an existing loop that has
not yet been closed, or create a new
loop. Selecting a closed loop will
display detailed information about that
loop.
