The Recorder Menu is provided on the Systems Tab and provides a way of managing files
stored on the 8 GB memory card. You can download all or a selection of files by using the op-
tions presented in the Recorder window.
Download all files – downloads all files from the recorder
Download selected files – allows you to select files using the tick box next to the file
name. Simply select the files to download and then click on Download selected files.
Format Recorder – Clears the memory of the recorder by erasing all files.
Make sure that there is adequate memory available on the recorder prior to making a discharge
measurement. It is suggested to download files and format the recorder between measurement
sites. At the very least, all files should be downloaded and the recorder formatted at the end of
the day.
Important: To complete any post processing on the recorded data, the file(s) must be down-
loaded from the ADP and opened in the RiverSurveyor Live for PC software.
