HAND-ENTERING DATA
[Only available on the desktop program - RoadFace 6.X only]
If you wish to enter data from manually collected runs, first open an existing Job, or create a new
Job and go to the Run level. If there are no runs in the new Job, it will display a blank screen. If
there are already some Runs in this Job, they will be shown on the Run List.
Create A Run [Only available on the desktop program - RoadFace 6.X only]
Press <Alt> <E>dit <I>nsert, or just press the <Insert> key.
Type in the name you wish to give your run and then press <Tab>.
Enter the footspacing. Press <Tab> again and enter the rest of the required information
including Imperial or Metric. The foot spacing is normally 12 for Imperial; and either 250
or 300 for metric. You may continue to tab through the remaining options or you may
press <Enter> at any time to accept the entries as shown on the screen.
The Readings Editor screen will appear. Type in your first reading, being sure to include
the "-" sign, if required, and press <Enter>. Readings are assumed to be positive unless
you place a minus "-" sign in front of the reading.
Continue entering your readings in the same manner until all are entered. (You may make
corrections by using the arrow and backspace keys.)
Once you have typed in all your readings, press the "OK" button to close the readings
editor.
The screen will return to the Run Listing window. The number of readings entered will appear in
the "Readings" column. There will be no Run Flags for this run.
The manually entered run may now be processed just like one collected normally.
