We used MAGNET Field today to stake a curve at a thirty-foot offset using RTK. We like to collect a point after we stake it, however, that wasn't possible today. We got prompted for a weighted mean when we collected the first point. In fact, we got prompted for a weighted mean even when we used a different point number for the same collected point. That was only done to try to figure out what was going on. Naturally, we were only interested in collecting the staked point one time. We couldn't figure out how to turn off the weighted mean prompt. What was even stranger, the collected point showed up in raw data, but not in the point list. After thinking about it, I guess that was because it wasn't stored. Has anyone experienced the same issues?

Try staking the reference line in real time, not by stationing.

not a Magnet user but sounds like a naming convention issue( rename point when staked /prefix/suffix) and also a duplicate point (proximity to last shot) is invoking the averaging function of the software.

did you receive a software upgrade recently?

might have reset the default settings.
