Normal function

Start begins surveying data. The button’s title reflects the action it will start.

Pause lets you continue a path after moving around obstacles. For example, while surveying a drain, press Pause, move around the obstacle, then press Start. The system treats the drain at your new position as a continuation of the same drain.

Stop ends surveying the area. The next Start begins a separate area. For example, while surveying a drain, press Stop, move, then press Start. The system treats this as a new, separate drain.

When the software is set to survey drains, the functions of Start, Pause, and Stop change slightly.

Start starts surveying a drain.

Stop ends the current drain survey. Pressing Start afterward starts a new drain.

Pause collection when the collecting vehicle cannot physically traverse a section of drain line.
