assumed that the SmartPad II setup described in Chapter 2 is complete and the Guidance Setup Pattern option
selected is Parallel.

MARK A message. This message will appear until the guideline point A is established. To establish the guideline
point A, highlight the A button in the button bar and press , Figure 3-59.
