List of possible values
for the Condition
attribute

The receiver is now ready to log descriptions as well. It is
fine (actually advantageous) for the receiver to begin log-
ging GPS positions while you prepare to record descrip-
tions.
- Selecting an attribute
Each feature can also have a number of attributes. Note
that there are three categories of attributes:
• Menu style where the attribute values are words or
short phrases that you pick off a list
• Numeric style where you select a number within a
specified range
• Text style where you type in a note
For example, the" Tutorial" feature library's Str light fea-
ture has the attributes:
• Condition
• # of bulbs
• Closest address
- Describing this attribute (entering an "attribute value")
Highlight the Condition attribute with the arrow button and
press ENTER. (Condition is a menu style of attribute.) This
takes you to a screen showing a list of "attribute values" -
words that describe the condition of the streetlight:
• Good
• Needs repair
• Needs paint
Highlight one of these choices as the attribute value for
the Condition attribute and press ENTER.
