The following sections outline data collection.

Activating the laser interface
Within Data collection, the laser rangefinder interface can be activated
in one of two ways:
Automatically, if you had preconfigured the Laser sensor’s
Auto-connect field to ‘Yes’.
Manually, using the softkey. X
Checking the laser interface
You can also use theXsoftkey to access the Select sensor menu to
reconfigure the laser rangefinder interface, or to check that the laser
and the Asset Surveyor software are communicating correctly, as
described above.
Recording an offset
Whenever you are collecting a point feature, you can use the
Advantage laser rangefinder to record an offset to the feature. You can
record an offset to a line, area, or quickmark feature only when you
have pressed theOsoftkey to display the offset entry form for that
feature.
