4.11 PRINTING OUT A SURVEY
After a survey is complete – it is probable that a printed report is required. There
are two methods for doing this:
1. Use any PC based terminal program (Hyperterminal with windows).
2. Use DCAPP for Excel, provided with the system.
3. Use DCAPP 2010 (this may not be provided with the system)
The C-SCAN 2010 provides serial output in a text-based format. Using a terminal
program just gives a table of survey results. However if DCAPP is used, this will
convert the table data into a full report with graphs of, depth, attenuation, current
and where used, GPS position.
Start DCAPP (see DCAPP reference manual), connect the external connector
(black socket below battery compartment) to the PC COM port with the cable
supplied.
From the start screen, press the Download key
The screen will show the ‘compatibility’ screen.
Three keys are displayed. These enable
download to a PC running various packages.
C-SCAN 2000 – This is used for download to
DCAPP for Excel. DCAPP for Excel is designed
to be backwards compatible with C-SCAN 2000
systems so, only C-SCAN 2000 compatibility
should be used if DCAPP for Excel is being
used
