  4. Type Menuload in AutoCAD and press Enter
  5. Click Browse to navigate to the Support Folder and open it
  6. From the files of type Menu, Select Legacy Menu Files (*.MNS*.MNU) to show the Menu files. Select JoeCad and Click open and close the menuload dialogue
  7. Go to Customize Quick Access Toolbar Arrow and Select Show Menu Bar to show all the menus including the SUR Menu

2. Creating CSV Files in Excel

Watch: CSV Creation Tutorial

  1. Open Excel and create columns: Northings, Eastings, Label
  2. Enter your survey data (e.g., 34567.891, 12345.678, 'Boundary Corner')
  3. Save as CSV (Comma Delimited) format
# Example CSV Format
Northing,Easting,Description
34567.891,12345.678,Boundary Corner
34612.345,12378.901,Tree Location

3. Importing CSV into AutoCAD Using SUR Plugin

Watch: CSV Import Tutorial

  1. In AutoCAD, Go to SUR Menu
  2. Select Point Plotting
  3. Enter password and click Ok
  4. Select CSV file from the directory and click Open
  5. Enter Absolute Point size, Text Size and Offset Distance of Text, for example 12 Inches or 0.3m respectively
