Press Start when you are positioned at the start of the line. Push the RD1500 in a straight line
towards the end of the line. The system knows the length of each line, and will automatically
stop acquisition once that distance has been covered. If the data acquisition ends prior to
reaching the end of the line, or continues noticeably past it, you are recommended to do an
Odometer Calibration (see
Odometer Calibration in Section 6.4 for details).
Once data is collected, the Grid Line will turn red. The current line will now advance to the next
one and is shown in white. The remaining lines to be collected remain shown in green.
Move back to the start of the next line, adjacent to the start of the previous line, and repeat the
process. Once all the lines are done in one direction, it will automatically prompt you to collect
lines in the other direction.
Recollecting & skipping lines
You may want to recollect a line if you make a mistake. You can move to a different line by
doing one of the following:

Press the + and - buttons under Grid Line , or

Touch any line on the grid image on the right, or

Use the 4-way directional keypad
