Managing Files

Raw data is recorded as time‐tagged measurements in a single raw data file. Each file is recorded to the receiver's internal
memory, and automatically given a name and a *.tps file extension. A file of collected data can then be transferred to a
computer with file managing software, such as the Topcon Receiver Utility (TRU), which is supplied on the GPS+ CD. These
programs allow you to use an automatic naming feature, enter file names, and delete files as necessary. For more information,
see the TRU Reference Manual supplied on the HiPer SR CD.
