Terrain Map Recording
Terrain map recording shades the plan view in order to show the ground that has been covered by the machine while collecting a terrain logging file (*.cat). *.cat files can be viewed in AccuGrade Office software.Terrain map recording uses 1 m (3.3 ft) x 1 m (3.3 ft) grid cells. A cell is marked as covered when the machine bucket passes over the cell. A cell that is marked as covered is shaded grey on the plan view.Perform the following steps in order to set up the terrain map recording.
Open the "Map Recording" dialog from the "Setup Menu - Configuration" dialog.
Press the down arrow key or the up arrow key in order to highlight the "Terrain" map recording type.
Do one of the following.
Press the "OK" key in order to confirm the setting and in order to return to the "Setup Menu - Configuration" dialog.
Press the "ESC" key and then press the "OK" key in order to return to the "Setup Menu - Configuration" dialog without saving the changes.
Press the "ESC" key in order to exit the "Setup Menu - Configuration" dialog. The plan view is opened.Any data from an existing terrain map recording file is displayed in the plan view when a design is loaded.The "Terrain: Off" soft key indicates that the terrain map recording and terrain logging is Off.Press the "Terrain: Off" soft key in order to begin terrain map recording and terrain logging. The "Terrain: On" soft key indicates that terrain map recording and terrain logging is in progress.Terrain map recording is updated as the machine moves forward and backward.The "Terrain: Full" soft key indicates when the data card has less than 100 KB of memory available. When this occurs map recording is stopped.Cut/Fill Map Recording
Cut/Fill map recording provides a plan view background that is color coded according to the quantities of cut and the quantities of fill required in the areas passed over by the machine bucket. Cut/Fill map recording also creates a *.cat file that can be viewed in AccuGrade Office software.Cut/Fill map recording uses 1 m (3.3 ft) x 1 m (3.3 ft) grid cells. Cut/Fill map recording requires a design to be loaded. The difference between the bucket elevation and the design elevation is stored for the cells below the bucket as the bucket passes over the ground.The vertical tolerance that is used for the light bar scales is used in order to determine the cut/fill color coding for the background on the plan view.Vertical offsets and reference surfaces can be applied to the design at anytime. The elevation differences that are stored in the cells are adjusted for the offsets. The cut/fill background color coding is updated.Note: Reference surfaces and vertical offsets are not automatically loaded with a design. In order to ensure that the cut/fill color coding is consistent, make sure that the vertical offsets and the reference surface configurations are consistent with the original configuration after reloading a design.Note: If you change any of the design elevations
