Move to Phase 3

[Wes Cole]

I'll throw an idea out there for a feature that I'd like to see, particularly in a white box. Maybe someone else has had this idea too...

I'd like to be able to move on to phase three when I'm in phase 2. Here's the scenario: I'm collecting a point in my boundary profile that's set to accept after 200 seconds. I've gone through phase 1 and everything is jammed up in phase 2 and, say, around 120 seconds in I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy about my observation. In the interest of time I'd like to move on but want the benefit of phase 3 verify. I'd like to be able to move on to phase 3 and store the point. Maybe this can be done already and I don't know how?

I mentioned this to adam yesterday but don't think I explained it very well.

Wes, you could put reset RTK as a user button, hit it a couple of times to reset and then store the point for now. Validate resets once then collects ten epochs. I like your idea.

 

[Wes Cole]

That's a good idea. What I've been doing now is accept/store and then start a new observation, pass through phase 1, and then check distance to last. If all is good I stop, reject, and move on. My idea to "move to phase 3" seems a bit more time efficient.

Actually Validate only resets once but records ten epochs.

So if I were to just reset tracking then it would do the same thing?

You only need to reset the RTK engines.

Very good.

I believe that function can be programmed to one of the 4 user defined, hardware based buttons on the LS. I suspect many of you have already done this. I will be programming today...

Yes, this can be done.

That's great! I'll also add it to a user defined button...didn't realize it was in there.

U-1 on my LS is set to RESET RTK.
