The device stops at the end of each finished scan line so that the user can find the starting position of the next line In this way all paths will be recorded and the area will be measured Figure 8 1 shows all 4 possible starting positions and the corresponding first scanning path Depending on the composition of your terrain you can determine the optimal starting point for your measurement by yourself Start of 1 scanning path End of 1 scanning path Figure 8 1 Starting position of a scan area The scanning paths may be referred as Zig Zag or Parallel traverses Also the number of impulses measure points which are recorded during one scanning path can be adjusted individually depending on the size of your scan area length of scanning path 8 1 1 Scan Mode There are two general techniques to surveying an area with the eXp 4000 e Zig Zag The starting position of two scanning paths next to each other is on the opposite side of the measured area You will record data on your scanning path and on the return path as well e Parallel The starting position of two scanning paths is always on the same side of the measured area You will only record data in one way and in one direction while you should return and walk back to the starting position of the next scanning path without recording data Figure 8 2 represents both techniques schematically OKM Ortungstechnik GmbH www okmmetaldetectors com F
