Description
A code is a description which can be stored with an object or alone.
A code group allows codes belonging to the same theme to be grouped. Indi-
vidual groups can be activated or deactivated. The codes belonging to a deacti-
vated code group cannot be selected from the selectable list for code selection.
The code type defines how and for which objects a code can be used.
Type
Description
Point code
Object related information recorded together with the cur-
rent point in the field.
Free code
Time-related information recorded between points in the
field. A time stamp is recorded with each free code. The time
stamp defines the chronological order in the export of free
codes and points for use in third-party mapping software.
Quick code
Quick coding is the storing of an object plus a point or free
code using a minimum number of keystrokes.
