To view or save
the file to a computer or laptop perform the
following steps: |
|
| |
|
-
Turn off the PDA
-
In a clean and
dry environment, remove the clear top
section from the PDA weather proof case by
opening the latches on the sides of the case
which will give access to the top of the PDA
-
On the top of
the PDA push in the data card (small memory
card) once to unlatch it and then pull it
out of the PDA
-
Insert the data
card into the data card reader (see
equipment list near the end of this manual)
-
We recommend
having an anti-virus program running on your
computer or laptop. This reduces the chances
of a virus being transferred to the data
card, which could then be transferred to
another computer from the data card.
-
Insert the data
card reader into a USB port on your computer
or laptop and save or open the file as
required.
-
When finished,
remove the data card reader from the
computer and the data card from the data
card reader.
-
Install the data
card back into the PDA and make sure it has
latched back in place (doesn’t stick out of
the PDA)
-
Turn on the PDA
and now you are ready to start surveying
again
