Reduction settings<br />
Enter a job name <strong>for</strong> the imported points.<br />
Enter the file name or click the folder icon to browse to<br />
the folder. This file will normally be a “csv” file (i.e.,<br />
comma delimited text file) that comes from another<br />
program (e.g., Excel, Trimble Geomatics, etc.).<br />
Select “Coordinate” <strong>for</strong>mat. This <strong>for</strong>mat is<br />
<strong>Point</strong>#, Northing, Easting, Elevation, Description<br />
so the file being imported should match that <strong>for</strong>mat.<br />
MENU: Data Collection, Options, Reduction Settings COMMAND: dcset ICON:<br />
Change various settings (e.g., collector, default field code, shot averaging, etc.) prior to reducing survey data. To set the<br />
default field code, click the “Graphics” tab and select the desired code.<br />
Reduce<br />
MENU: Data Collection, Jobs, Reduce COMMAND: reduce ICON:<br />
This processes a data file into the drawing (i.e., places nodes with point symbols and line work).<br />
Check data in plan view and, if so desired, in elevation view (AutoCAD command: -view, Orthographic, Front).<br />
If there are errors and you would like to edit the raw data file and re-reduce the data, return to “Edit <strong>for</strong>matted file” steps<br />
above.<br />
