Mine Note from CooRD File

This mine note entry routine is for when the spads are known coordinates or point numbers from a .CRD file. The flow of entering offsets for this routine is very similar to Mine Note Left/Right/Face. First enter the spads point number or coordinates, and specify the azimuth by either entering the number directly or by identifying another point. Then enter a distance up followed by the offsets. Pressing Enter at the offset prompt will back up the routine so that it asks for another distance up. Then, pressing Enter at the distance up prompt will make it ask for the next spad. Finally, pressing Enter to the spad question will exit the routine.

There are two types of offsets points, corner points and regular points. Corner points identify a corner of a pillar that is across a cross cut. Corner points are drawn as green dots and regular points are drawn as red circles. This distinction is made to assist in pillar connection and is important to AutoMine Connections. The offsets have a code immediately before the distance. The codes are L for left, R for right, CL or *L for corner left, and CR or *R for corner right. For example, the offset *R10 means a corner point offset 10 feet to the right.
