3.3.2 QuickStart Tutorial - GIS Data Collection, contd.
As an example, we will create a point
code named Pole. We will input the
following note in the note field,
"Offset to road". The note field can
be used to describe the manner in
which data is collected for a particu-
lar code. In this example, we are
measuring the pole location from the
road. Press F1 CONT to continue.
Getting Started With New Equipment
We will also create codes for both
line and area types:
Pressing F4 ATRIB on any of these
panels will allow you to create
attributes for your code.

Choice list
New F2 adds an attribute to the
code. The use of Choice lists helps
to set the right value to an attribute.
You can either create a choice list in
GISDataPro or on the sensor.
There are two ways to create a
choice list on the GS50 / GS50+.
Either create it with a CXT file or
create it in the New Attribute panel.
To create a choice list on the sensor
with an Ascii CXT text file use a
normal text editor on your PC. List
the values you like to use and save
the text file with the same name as
the attribute name. Use the exten-
sion CXT for the Ascii text file so that
the GS50 / GS50+ can identify the
file as a choice list.
