This is a useful set of macros added to help a machine operator to update the grid model by placing the bucket tip or closed grab on the placed material and a CI510 button push to update the surface for a single grid bin.

In Acquisition customize a shortcut to associate 'Crane tool measure: log to file' with a CI510 switch button. (The Trimble CI510 device needs to be configured as a 'State' device first)
Operator places the bucket tip (L,M,R) or closed grab on the placed material and push the button to update the current grid model by 1 grid square.
Choose the appropriate grid bin size for your model to suit this type of measurement or take several measurements to update more bins. This macro also logs the position to a file.
