The following steps describe an alternate method for taking soil
samples using the GPS 2000/2100:
Step Action
1 Use a software program capable of generating grid maps to
create soil sample sites.
2 Write each sample location down or print off a copy of the
latitude and longitudes.
3 Turn the GPS 2000/2100 on and place it in standard mode.
Press the MARK key.
4 Select a field that will not be used to log any other points in
when the sample locations are recorded. Press one of the F
keys to make a mark. Return the GPS to standard mode by
pressing the RUN key.
NOTE: The GPS unit must have data in it to be able to
manually put coordinates in for navigation, thus the need for
this step.
5 Go to the field where the samples will be collected. From the
standard mode of the GPS 2000/2100, press the NAV key.
6 Press the F1 key. A cursor should now be flashing on the first
number of the LAT: value.
7 Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the right and adjusts
the values. As the user changes the values and the desired
number is entered, the directional headings and distance to the
point should update and indicate which direction and distance
the user must travel to reach the sample site entered.
8 Once the user reaches a sample site follow steps 12-14 of the
previous instructions.
