Receiver and File
Maintenance
If post-processing the data after completing a survey, the data in the
receiver’s memory will need to be downloaded to a computer.
Downloading and deleting files will also prepare the receiver’s
memory for the next survey. Occasionally, the receiver’s NVRAM
may need to be cleared to eliminate communication or tracking
problems.
As project expectations expand, the receiver’s OAF may need to be
updated to provide expanded operation and functionality. The various
boards inside the receiver (GPS, power, modem, and Bluetooth)
require firmware to properly operate and provide appropriate
functionality. As TPS releases firmware updates, loading these
updates into the receiver will ensure that the receiver operates at its
full potential.
Downloading Files to a
Computer
After completing a survey, download data files to a computer for
storage, post-processing, or backup. Also, the receiver memory holds
a finite amount of files and information, so downloading data prevents
files from being lost. PC-CDU provides a File Manager wizard to
download files to your computer and to delete files from the receiver.
1. Connect your receiver and computer. See “Connecting the
Receiver and a Computer” on page 2-14 for this procedure.
2. On the Connection Parameters dialog box, enable RTS/CTS
handshaking and click Connect (Figure 5-1 on page 5-2).
