Setting Measurement Points

While Summit WMScanner is polling the wireless network, you can record single marker or complete
track run measurement points. This is performed from within the Mode section of the measurement
survey control panel:
1 Select a mode for setting measurement points. Mode options are:
Single Marker - To correlate a measurement with a specific location, select Marker Mode, then left-
■
click the location in the model where the measurement is being made. The X, Y coordinate is then
identified from the mouse click and stored in the drawing database. You can continue to move in
the building, and click the location in the model where each measurement is being made. These
location data points will be used when you run Visualizations.
Track Run - Like Single Marker mode, Track Run mode correlates a measurement with a location.
■
However, Track Run mode records multiple points along a straight line which are collected and
plotted between your start and end point clicks. Track runs are continuously drawn between
clicks unless you exit to Single Marker Mode and then return into Track Run mode. You can use
Track Run mode if you intend on recording multiple measurements in a straight line.
To use Track Run mode, left-click to identify your start position, then walk to another location.
Left-click again to identify your end position. Measurement points are then plotted along that
straight line path in discrete and even increments. The X, Y, Z coordinate is then identified from
the mouse click and stored in the measurement file. These location data points will be used when
you run Visualizations.
In the next example, the user clicks the starting point of the track run:
