10.Click on “9. Peripherals”, then select
the “Laser” tab:
Make your screen look like the one
above. (Notice that we select the
Impulse CR 00 as the type. Again,
we don”t know why, just do it.)
11.If you are using the internal GPS (not
a RTK head) Select “Equip, 5.
Configure” and insure that “Store
Fixed Only” is UNCHECKED:
Also select “Equip: 8. Tolerances” and
insure that the HRMS and VRMS
tolerances are large enough you will
be able to store points.
12.Your MM10 and FAST Survey are
ready to acquire data. Select the
“Survey” tab, then click on “1. Store
Points”:

13.To store an offset point, click on the
“O” and select the “Laser” tab:
1 .Click on “Read Laser”, then fire the
laser:
Hold the laser trigger down long
enough to get a reading, the result
will be transmitted to FAST Survey
when you REMOVE your finger from
the trigger. FAST Survey will make a
“Ding” sound and fill in the Hz offset,
Vertical Offset and Azimuth
automatically.
15.If you are satisfied with the
measurement, then click on “Store”
and the offset point (the point where
the laser is aimed, will be stored.
16.You can then click on “Read Laser”
again and store the next point.
17.Alternatively, if you have a bunch of
points to store, you can click
“Multiread Laser” and click on “Read
Laser”. Now, every time you fire the
laser you will store the previous point
and register a new point (this way
you have a opportunity to delete the
point before it is stored.
