Marking Locate Points
The locate points (FLP and RLP) and the locate line (LL) must be found and accurately marked during the
locating procedure. To mark a locate point after you have found it, stand with the receiver level at the
locate point. Look down the vertical axis that runs through the center of the display to project a plumb line
to the ground (see figure below). The point where this plumb line hits the ground is the location that you
should mark.
