I.5.5 Collecting Data
Laser Rangefinders I
The following sections outline data collection using the LEDHA-GEO
with the Asset Surveyor software.
Activating the laser interface
Within data collection, the laser rangefinder interface can be activated
in one of two ways:
Automatically, if you 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.
Recording an offset
Whenever you are collecting a point feature, you can use the
LEDHA-GEO 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 theO pressed softkey to open the offset entry form for
that feature.
To take a laser measurement for the Asset Surveyor software, aim the
LEDHA at the target and press the Meas button. There is a short delay
(1–2 seconds) and then the measurement appears in the Asset
Surveyor software. When taking a measurement, hold the laser as
steady as possible.
