Complete Setup
Once you have selected your mode, you can complete the setup. To do
this:
1. Tell your instrument which channel to use for any other axes/points
(e.g. axial):
a. Press to select CH1.
b. Press to select CH2 — The text All Others will display.
2. Press to cancel multi-channel recording — The text (none) will
display in the left column. This indicates that no channels are
designated to a specific axis.
3. Press to redisplay your route.
4. Start recording as normal.
NOTE: A summary of the multichannel configuration displays on
the Route screen. For example, Points: Dual Chan 1, 2 indicates
dual channel acquisition in Points mode.
Triaxial Measurements
If you have a four-channel instrument, you can save time by using a
triax sensor to take three measurements at once. Configuring a triaxial
on-route recording on your instrument involves:
• Creating three locations at a single point in Ascent (e.g.
Horizontal, Vertical, Axial).
• Setting each of these locations to correspond with one of the
three available triax sensor axes (X, Y, or Z, matching the
orientation of the sensor when mounted).
