Mapper Tools
The primary task performed in the Map page is object mapping. In Mapper, objects include points,
polylines, or polygons. As explained before, you can pre-define some point and hazard objects in
the Road maker setup. Each pre-defined object has a corresponding soft-key in the Map page.
Mapping objects are also accessed via the Map Objects soft-key. Pressing this soft-key activates a
menu containing all graphical object types. Each mapper tool selected will prompt the operator for
an object name. The object name is the label for the item being mapped (See “Creating Object
Name” on page 6-9.) Each object type is described in Table 6-4.
To select an object, use the up and down arrow keys on the legacy 6000 to highlight the desired
object. Press the Enter key.
