5. Turn on the 3M™ Dynatel™ M-series Locator and go to the Marker locate
mode. If the GPS unit is disconnected or has not acquired enough
satellites to give a position, the 3M™ Dynatel™ Locator will display "Insert
External Device". After the GPS unit has acquired a position, the 3M™
Dynatel™ Locator will display the latitude and longitude coordinates.
6. When a marker has been located, wait 10 seconds for the Thales
™ unit
to acquire and average positional data, then press the Read key on the
3M™ Dynatel™ Locator.
When the marker is read:
• Mode 1 (NMEA): the marker data and GPS coordinates will be displayed
and saved to the Locator's memory. This data can be uploaded into 3M
TM
3M™ Dynatel™ PC Locator tools and added to your database.
• Mode 2 (GIS): the marker data and GPS coordinates will be displayed
and stored in the Locator’s memory. The marker data will also be sent to
the MobileMapper™ GPS device to be stored in its memory. The
MobileMapper™ screen will display that the marker has been logged.
This data can be uploaded to MobileMapper Office™ where the
appropriate file(s) can be exported to mapping software.
7. When finished, push the Menu key on the MobileMapper™ and close the
mapping for this job. The logging job may be reopened to add new
markers.
