The Carlson Field Icon Menu lets you select Carlson Field functions by pressing a function key F1-F10 or by picking the icon button. The set of commands that are available in this menu depends of the type of survey equipment that you are configured to. Before running these Carlson Field functions, you need to run Configure Field to set the equipment type and communication parameters.
There are two ways to bring up the icon menu. One way is by
picking the Start Carlson Field icon. This start icon is displayed
in the lower right of your screen when the Show Startup Icon option
is on as set in Configure Field under General Settings. You can
close the Start Carlson Field icon for the current drawing session
by clicking the X in the icon title bar. To bring back the Start
Carlson Field icon you can use the F11 key. The Start Carlson Field
icon is only displayed when no commands are running. The other way
to show the Carlson Field function menu is to pick the Menu(F11)
button while running other Carlson Field commands. This method
allows you to switch between Carlson Field functions without having
to exit back to the CAD menu. For example, you can switch from
Point Store directly to Stakeout.
