NOTE. The number of measurements that can be placed on a map is limited to 200. For grid maps with an active GPS,
when the instrument reaches the measurement limit while in multiple measurement mode, a message is briefly displayed, the
measurements and map are automatically saved to the current Save Results directory, the map is cleared, and then iMap continues
adding measurements to the map.
When using an image map, or a grid map without an active GPS reference, when the instrument reaches the 200 measurement
limit, the instrument displays a message requesting you to tap the position of the last measurement. The instrument then
automatically saves the map measurements to a file and then clears the map. If the instrument is in repeat measurement mode,
new measurements are not started until you tap the new start position on the image map.
The iMap Log measurements function automatically sets the map view measurements mode to Measurement Flags during

logging measurement acquisition. When iMap measurement logging is done, the instrument restores the map view measurements
mode to the mode it was at before the iMap measurement logging was initiated.
If you tap the Select, Measurement Direction, or Single Measurement button while logging measurements in non-GPS mode,
iMap cancels the log measurements mode and does not draw any measurement icons on the map.
Grid maps with an active GPS receiver support logging measurements by time interval or distance change interval. Image maps, or
grid maps with an inactive GPS receiver, support logging measurements by time intervals.
You cannot place a measurement icon on any area of the map that is covered by a message banner.
When the instrument is in measurement logging mode (Setup > Logging), iMap measurements (single or repeat) are not

mapped as iMap measurement icons. Instead, an X is drawn at the measurement location. The measurement results are saved
directly to a log file and are not associated with the map file. The logging X icon is not an interactive icon; selecting it does not open
a measurement list and you cannot move the icon. The X icon does not count as part of the 200-measurement limit.
