Launching RSA Map
To la unch R SA Map:
1. In the Host Instrument application, select Tools > RSA Map from the menu bar.
RSA Map will launch in a separate window.
NOTE. When RSA Map is running, selecting RSA Map switches the display from the Host Instrument
display to the RSA Map display.
Loading a map
Before you can use the RSA Map tool to record measurements you must load a map. If you loaded a map
in a previous session, that map will remain loaded until it is replaced by a new map. You can create a
map using a program like OpenStreetMap
