Collecting Data
If you plan to save the data you collect, note the file name located at the top left of the screen.
Begin collecting data by moving the cart forward. Data gets collected only when the cart is moving forward.
Once you start seeing hyperbolas on the screen, pull the system straight back along your survey line. You will
see a vertical line (the backup cursor) scroll along your data. When that vertical line is right over the apex of the
hyperbola, the center of the antenna is over that target.
The center of the antenna is located in the middle of the
antenna directly under the capsule between the two centerline
indicators on each side of the cart. Using these as reference
points, mark the ground at each side of your cart. After
moving the cart, place an “X” between the two marks. Push
the cart straight forward or move the cart to do another line
scan. No data will be collected until you have passed the spot
where you started to reverse.
