During a level run, how do I retake a FS shot in MAGNET Field?

If you're asking this question now, it's likely to late.

Just like a traditional field book. No erase. Simply cross it out, and ignore. Remeasure and record.

I'm thinking of providing several classes in your area for field to finish with Topcon Magnet. Working on getting CEU approved for Florida and other states.

Unbelievable that the software doesn't allow the user to remeasure! The office wants level runs done in the collector so they can run an adjustment program. We also record everything in a field book. If you remeasure, I assume the distances would still accumulate and that would affect the adjustment. Please let me know when you get CEU approved. All of us field guys really want to know how to use all the features of the software.

You can remeasure. Just enter the same point Id. After measurement you'll be prompted to over write, update or rename the point.

?ÿHave a trick to show you also that makes a wireless connection to Digital Level.

After the fact, I did think about why I didn't just enter the same point ID and retake the shot. Then, I wondered if the distances would be overwritten. A wireless connection would be great, since our level doesn't have Bluetooth.
