Iron Creek Example

Figure E depicts an actual set of
R2CROSS field data collected on Iron Creek, a
tributary to the Fraser,River in Grand County,
Colorado, Assuming that the R2CROSS macro
has been installed and initiated as described
above, highlight the "Printers" menu choice and
select either the LaserJet or Dot Matrix menu
choice, Other printer-types may require a
customized setup (consult your Lotus 1-2-3
reference manual),
In order to ensure that all subsequent
data files are stored in the R2CROSS
subdirectory, select the "Retrieve" menu choice,
choose the "Path" suboption, key-in:
c:\ R2CROSS
and press <ENTER>,
To initiate data entry, select the "Input"
menu option, R2CROSS then prompts you to
enter the number of data points collected in the
stream cross section, Count the number of data
points (Iron Creek has 34), key-in this number
at the prompt, and prcss <ENTER>.
Enter the remainder of the data within
the "Location Information", "Supplemental
Data", and "Channel Profile Data" sections of
the R2CROSS macro. Use the <ENTER> key
to complete each data entry and move the
cursor tIuough each of the data input cells in
sequential order, The final use of the
<ENTER> key occurs after keying-in the
stream "Slope",
After entering the stream "Slope", use
the arrow keys to enter all of the "Feature",
"Dist", "Vert Depth", "Water Depth", and "Vel"
data from the Input Data table of Figure E. The
grasslines on each streambank represent a very
important piece of information in the
R2CROSS analysis, In the Iron Creek example,
these grasslines occur at distances of 1,00 and
11.00 feet. It is imperative that these grasslines
be identified within R2CROSS by placing the
number" 1" in the appropriate cell of Column A
in the R2CROSS worksheet. This designation

is so important that the R2CROSS macro will
not proceed until the two grasslines have been
specified, After entering all of the data within
the Input Data table, including the two
grasslines, simultaneously press "<Ctrl> G" to
terminate the data entry routine and return to
the main R2CROSS menu,
Select the "Verify" option to print a
"Proof Sheet" for comparison with Figure E. If
data entry errors are found, return to the "Input"
menu option and correct them. When editing
data, use the arrow keys to move around the
worksheet and correct mistakes. When all data
entry errors have been corrected, exit the
editing routine by pressing "<Ctrl> G", The
data editing routine can be repeated until all
data entry errors have been corrected,
Once all data entry errors have been
corrected, use the "Save" menu choice to store
the input data file to the R2CROSS directory on
the hard disk drive, Select the "New File"
menu option, type an appropriate eight letter
me name for the data set, and press <ENTER>.
The file will automatically be saved with a
,WK4 file extension, Caution: do not name
the me "R2CROSS".
Select the "Calculate" option and press
<ENTER> to initiate staging table calculations
and print the final output from R2CROSS,
Verify that the printed output is identical to
Figures F through],
Select the "Graph" option to view the
cross section plot. Press <ENTER> to exit the
view and print the cross section plot.
Exit the R2CROSS macro by selecting
the "Quit" option. Answer "No" to the Lotus
prompt to exit R2CROSS and remain in Lotus
1-2-3,

This general procedure can be followed
to enter, edit, and analyze almost all R2CROSS
datasets, To begin data entry on your own
R2CROSS data set, select "Retrieve" a "New
file" from the R2CROSS menu,
