Select a working surface and set
the vertical offset for vertical
guidance
Every time you begin a new job or load a new
design.
5.5.1 Setting the working
surface lift and/or vertical offset
Select an alignment for horizontal
guidance
Every time you begin a new job, load a new
design, or need to use a different horizontal
alignment.
5.5.9 Selecting horizontal
alignment
Select the focus given horizontal
guidance
Every time you select a new horizontal
alignment, or when you finish a pass, turn
around, and want to swap the end given
horizontal guidance.
5.5.2 Selecting focus for
horizontal guidance
Set an offset from the horizontal
alignment
Every time you select a new horizontal
alignment, or you want to work a new section
of design surface using the same alignment.
5.5.3 Setting horizontal offset
Re-initialize machine orientation Every time you move a single-3D sensor
excavator.
5.5.6 Re-initializing orientation
after moving the machine
Clear a UTS benching value When you want to use the measured elevation
of the UTS instrument in the guidance
calculations.
